burning out his fuse up here alone

[COLE EVAN SHAPERE]

Meet Cole Shapere. He's twenty years old and has been stuck in this place for the past four years. He's what most people, even people in a place like this, would call strange. He suffers from a severe case of tourette's, which makes him socially withdrawn. He doesn't always understand what others are meaning when they do or say something, and therefore his reactions can be somewhat inappropriate. Along with his tourette's he eats inorganic materials (things that aren't food, including his own flesh) and believes himself to be an alien. He spends his days observing the humans and trying to learn how to be like them.

Emotions are something that Cole has a hard time showing. He hardly ever smiles or laughs. When he does it is when Jeffrey is talking to him. In fact Jeffrey is one of the few people he will vocally communicate with, though he will communicate through Jeffrey in a way.
For example if some one asks his name he might tell Jeffrey to tell them what it is. Obviously they are learning the answer from him, but he believes that Jeffrey is the one telling them. Jeffrey, his imaginary friend, is another thing that makes Cole an easy target for ridicule and torment.

Cole doesn't know how to feel good or love either and therefore has never experienced it. The two emotions he has been able to show are fear and aggression. When it comes to his aggression, Cole just lets it build and build until finally he explodes. When this happens it will more than likely end with someone getting hurt. Sometimes it's the other person and sometimes it's him.

JACKIE && COLE

Jackie will find it weird that Cole doesn't associate himself with others, but using Jeff as his source to speak to others she would find normal. He thinks he's an alien she thinks she's a wizard, I can see some sort of unusual bond between the two. Jackie deep down knows she isn't a wizard but uses it to cope with her past and she's been there for two years so has had time to befriend Cole perhaps, sneak in there without him realizing? She will be protective of him if people tease, even if he doesn't like her protectiveness.

[TAVIUS K. SUSUME]

DEAR COLE

I believe that Tavius Susume and Pippin Mayne would be good friends for you. One of them's schizophrenic and the other doesn't even believe he's alive. Nathaniel Baker and Eltanin Ritley will probably stalk you from the shadows like the children they are. Antonio Montague will try and get you to fuck him. Tenchi Hanizuka will find a way to sketch you and Quin Zain will probably never know you.

THANK YOU

Wizard and an alien? It seems like an unlikely pair, but there would also be an understanding of each other in it. He'd probably hold plenty of conversations through Jeffrey with her because of it. When it comes to her protectiveness, he probably wouldn't even realize what it was she was doing, and if he did he would have a hard time showing/conveying any form of gratitude to her.[/center]

Tavius/Pippin&Cole

[/size]
You're right, I can see Tavius and Pippin having some sort of friendship with Cole. Schizophrenics, like Tavius, are usually among those that understand Cole the best, and while Pippin doesn't believe he's alive, Cole doesn't believe he's human. They also have in common the fact that they will sometimes try and eat themselves[/center]

Nathaniel/Eltanin&Cole
Little stalkers! They might make Cole a little nervous, especially if they are watching him from the shadows constantly, but at the same time he could identify with them a little, since he usually does the same with other people.

Antonio&Cole

[/size]
Cole doesn't acknowledge sex and has shown no signs that he even knows what it is, so if Antonio tried to get him to fuck him, he probably wouldn't know exactly what was going on and what he was trying to get him to do.[/center]

Tenchi&Cole

[/size]
Cole would probably avoid being sketched for a while, but eventually he might give in and let him do it[/center]

Quin&Cole

[/size]
yeah these two probably wouldn't know each other and if they did it would only be in passing[/center]
