"Constellation"

First things first, Wybie is a weird boyfriend, with weird interests 

But trust me, he’s lovely

He's very independent, sometimes more so than you would wish 

He is just good at keeping himself entertained so to speak

He absolutely hates to be bored, so he's become very good at staying busy over the years of his life 

He fills his life with photography, always heading out into the woods when he's bored to take some photos 

He loves taking candids of you, and he has a secret folder of all the photos he's taken of you over the months and years you've been together 

He doesn't show you for a longgggg time, but you speculate he safe keeps them somewhere, because you know he’d never delete the pictures of you 

He also really enjoys dirt biking, and heads out to do that as well at the first sight of boredom

He doesn't enjoy competition though, he's never been a very fiery competitor, so he only does dirt biking recreationally and will actually get slightly pissed off if you encourage him to apply to some local competitions, even if you think your being helpful

He claims that competing takes the fun out of everything, but it's really because he feels overwhelmed when faced with really any kind of performance pressure and doesn’t like being ranked 

He actually is like never on his phone, which is quite frustrating, but despite how many apps there are dedicated to distracting and entertaining the youth, Wybie just isnt really interested in them 

Plus, his grandma is not from the same generation as him, so she is literally never using a phone or any device like it, so she's never texting him to check up on him or anything of the sort

Because of this, he in turn just sort of forgets that there are people who actually would like to hear from him over text or call….

This is what I mean when I say he’s independent 

It's not that he's trying to be such a loner necessarily, it's just that in the combined storm of him always needing to be out and doing something so he won't be bored, AND the fact he’s not checking his phone a lot, for you as his girlfriend, sometimes he can seem really distant or like you never know what he’s up to because he’s just not checking in with you

However, when you bring this frustration up to him, he instantly feels horrible

You explain to him how you feel, and he is incredibly receptive and understanding. He lets you talk uninterrupted while he just nods and intently listens with guilt in his puppy dog eyes

He just really didn't even consider the possibility that it was making you nervous or insecure and whatnot

Now, he invites you with him everywhere

Any stupid little plans he has for the day or after school/work, he’s always invites you without fail

Normally, he’s usually doing the same things as always. It's always either photography, insect hunting, dirt biking, or just exploring with his cat

By the way, the cat’s (HIS cat’s) name is a vintage name you’d probably hear in a seniors home

Something like Vernon or Osmond 

Something very old school/old man, but Wybie thinks that just suits his cat

Wybie just in general is a very mellow guy

He doesn't really get worked up about much

He prefers doing his own thing most of the time, but his love language is quality time, so please, you don't have to leave, like ever

He's perfectly happy having you around,,, all the time actually!

He loves just talking, he can talk to you about anything and everything

You guys jump between topics, explore different perspectives, say random thoughts that come to mind…. Really, anything and everything. He loves conversating

He loves insects, and always insists on preserving their “lives”  

This stems from his love of slugs, which eventually grows as he gets older, and a real passion for insects develops

His grandma got him an insect exhibition kit when he was 14, and he became obsessed with it, going out of his way to collect “exotic” bugs 

In school, Wybie is a back of the class dweller, who does NOT pay attention

He always chooses seats at the very back of the class, in the corner and next to the window if he can

So he can look outside while he doesn’t pay attention

He also looks at you…. Teehee

Like a lot

The way your hair falls softly against your back, how you sit in your chair, what people talk to you… what people are also looking at you 

He's a real quiet observer, especially in school, he notices a lot about people naturally

His grandma used to really get on him about his grades, but as she got older and her health began dwindling more and more she just stopped paying all that attention to him

I headcanon that she develops dementia :(

He has distant relatives that thought of putting her in an elderly home, but then that would mean Wybie would need another family member to take care of him and take him in… and they lived far away and had families of their own, so they opted to just afford a nurse to look after Lucille (his grandma) until Wybie graduates and can be on his own, which isn't that far away really so it works out  ..

Because of that, Wybie has a lot of freedom, especially with school

There's no one hounding him about grades, or grounding him if he skipped school 

So he doesn't really care at all about his school performance 

Except for science 

He LOVES science and very much pays attention and loves natural science units 

Of course eventually teachers and principles will chat with him about needing to elevate his grades when he becomes and junior and a senior in highschool, and only when they lay out the fact that colleges won’t accept grades like his does he then start paying attention and trying in school 

Anyways…. 

He loves foggy weather 

He loves a good hot shower, especially in the winter months, he’s the type to scorch his skin off 

He cracks his knuckles really loud, it's just a little habit 

He loves the october and november months, he finds its the best season for photography

He draws on his hands all the time, especially in class

He’ll draw the bones of his hands and fingers, mimicking the skeleton gloves he has

Wybie thinks its a cool idea to one day get that same skeleton design tattooed on his hands, he just vibes with how it looks 

He’ll draw them on you too, if your sitting next to him 

He’s an Aquarius sun, born on February 18th
