— aaron gold, the movie star | aaron was one of the biggest teen heartthrobs of his time — arguably the heartthrob. multi-talented and attractive as a person could get, his later career hasn't been so kind to him. struggling to pivot himself towards more adult roles, he's also part of the last generation to regard homosexuality as a professional detriment, which means he's become exceedingly private. finally now on the verge of a renaissance, all of that could be ruined if the truth about his sexual interests leaks to the press... or so he thinks.

— carlo zappa, the italian stallion | carlo isn't famous — not yet, anyway. nor is he necessarily trying to be. an immigrant from italy, he moved to los angeles ot become a personal trainer to the stars. one look at his physique and you'll immediately tell he knows what he's talking about. but of course, being in the proxmity of fame and fortune starts to give you ideas... and it would be nice to stop hustling as an escort on the side to afford his expensive rent.

adam finnigan, the bartender | to be perfectly honest with you, adam is really not the kind of barkeep who tends to care about his patrons' personal lives, but he's really good at pretending he is. something about his face just telegraphs "honest anf trustworthy" to people, which he finds laughable, but if it means the tips are extra generous, so be it… [versatile.]

grant coy, the gentle giant | grant knows he makes a big impression based solely on his physical size, but he doesn't feel quite as large on the inside. soft-spoken and incredibly introverted, sometimes grant wishes he could turn invisible. all he wants in life is a nice guy who respects him for the way he is… and could give him exactly what he want in the bedroom, which is never what people assume based on his looks. [bottom.]

— porter leigh, the late bloomer | you wouldn't know it now by looking at him, but porter had quite the glo-up between high school and college. a classic case of "former fat kid," his tremdendous physical transformation instilled a brand new sense of confidence he never knew possible, allowing him to become super popular —in every sense of the word— on campus. but with every last trace of his former self scrubbed from the internet, can he up keep his new reputation before old insecurities come to the surface...?

— barrett "barry" burke, the prospect | barry has a lot to prove. one of the hottest players on his college football team —a tight end, in many senses— he's itching to make it big and get drafted to a major team. will he cave under such immense pressure, or reach the great highs he knows he's destined towards? and how will he deal with the secret of his sexuality...?

— christopher "kit" keen, the legacy | for his entire life, kit grew up in the shadow of his father, the great professor cosmo keen — or at least, he feels like he did. wanting to live up to his father's reputation. he worked tirelessly to ensure his grades were always top of the charts, even if it meant he spent more time with books than other people. but maybe with his new cushy job at university —the very same one his father works at— he'll find the time to live a little...

nicolás esguerra ... the pitcher | after one of the fastest ascents in recent mlb history —nearly as quick as his throws on the mound— nic felt like he was on top of the world. when a nasty blogger threatened to out him to the world, however, nic knew he needed to get ahead of the scoop, and did that asshole's dirty work for him. it doesn't seem as though the news has affected his social standing that much since, but the self-doubt never quite went away...

roth weissklein ... the nepo baby | the great grand-nephew (twice removed or something) of president lyndon b. johnson, roth grew up knowing he had a lot to live up to — but failing that, his privilege and proximity to fame would do some of the heavy lifting. luckily, his smarts as a lawyer are equally matched by his social media savvy... and that's before acknowledging just how hot he is.

— baxter carlisle, the homemaker. lucky enough to have been with his husband for over twenty years and counting, baxter has it all... or at least, that's how it seems. with the mister always at work and their children approaching college-age, baxter finds himself increasingly bored and listless. but are idle hands always the devil's workshop...?
