florin beaumont lee ,, Well, you can go it alone. Or keep it in between- the pages of the books you burn so no one gets to read. The fingers pull your stitches tight, but knowing someone's secret is not enough. Everyone's a little bit a lot of the time. [App] Florin has lived in very small or isolated communities until he graduated high school- first in his hometown of Custer, and later at one of the most elite high school's in the US. Afterward he's traveled near constantly- going wherever he's called- both in the US and abroad. Almost all the work he does is done behind closed doors, and it's unlikely anyone would know him for it unless they've worked with him. Where to find him: Currently, Florin is likely to spend a lot of his free time in the library- flipping through books a page per second. He also spends at least 45 minutes per day in the recreation center, working on his form. Florin follows a strict schedule, so if you're looking for him he's pretty easy to find. Affiliations: None Florin has always known there was something different about him, in many ways. His life's work up until this point has revolved around a single question: are monsters born, or are they made? Up until now, he still hasn't been able to settle on a definite answer. He is something of a loner. He doesn't always mean to be- but he's a creature of habit who does things on his own time. That's not going to change majorly at Infinity- he's already had one solid go at ignoring almost everyone around him in an isolated school environment. Unless someone or something catches his interest, he could go 2 for 2 on that. The spiders come in side by side, two by two and night by night. Who is food and who is thrown away? Florin doesn't go out of his way to form friendships. Rather he befriends people by circumstance. People he sees and talks to, or works with, often are much more likely to be considered friends of his. He's definitely a slow-burn friender- yet when he does feel familiar with someone he's often willing to go to great lengths, even inconveniencing himself, to help them. It doesn't help that even when he is friendly with someone, he's never quite sure when they're friends. It just feels like an arbitrary point to him, so he's never really sure when a person changes labels so to speak. It's hard for him to truly feel close to people. The only exception to this is if someone calls him a friend first. As a friend, Florin is the type of person you could really call whenever- it helps that he's usually up all hours of the night. Considering he finds very little actually intellectually stimulating, you don't have to be a genius to be friends with Florin. In fact, he sometimes finds it refreshing to be around "normal" people. (Not just that, but there's more than one kind of intelligence, and he appreciates people that are better in different areas.) That, and a lot of the people that are considered "geniuses" are actually just loud. Florin doesn't tend to make friends easily, but in a place where there's simultaneously so much and so little to do, I can see him making a few (in fact, I'd like him to make a few). He is the sort of person that just sort of pops in and pops out whenever he likes though, so that has to be okay. Florin is almost all business all the time. It would be nice if he could make a friend, or even a distantly concerned acquaintance, that would be willing to try and pry him away from work for five seconds. In his work every second is valuable, and I think that at this point maximizing his time is just a habit of his- to the point where "fun" isn't something he tends to think about or do willingly... Now that I write that, I don't think Florin has ever been the type of person to have fun and relax. Or perhaps the opposite - someone that, even if they don't understand him, recognizes that he and his brain are the way they are- and makes an effort to check in and make sure he hasn't been doing something completely bonkers- like searching Google Maps for an exact match for a one-inch portion of a picture for three days straight. » Like Family » Almost Like Family » Attached at the Hip » Partners in Crime » Best Friends » Really Close Friends » Somewhat Close Friends » Pretty Good Friends » Growing Friendship » Friendship Crush » Party Friends » Online Friends » Childhood Friends » Enemies Turned Friends » First Name Basis » Acquaintances When now is not the time, tomorrow disagrees. But your real world isn't ready to face the face behind the real me. Florin is much more accustomed to making enemies. He's incredibly blunt, and often comes off as insensitive, even if he was just telling the truth. He's the type of person that doesn't even know the names and faces of his own classmates, unless they give him a reason to. Florin also has a bad habit of correcting people- he doesn't necessarily always want to be right or have the last word- he just doesn't get why anyone would want to be wrong. He would certainly want to be corrected. Very few things are actually sacred to Florin, if a concept or rule seems like bull, he's just not going to follow it. On Florin's part: he doesn't like repeating himself over and over unless someone genuinely can't hear him, or he's not communicating well. He doesn't like beating around the bush. And he's not interested in trying to decode your sentence to find out what you "actually" mean. Because of his occupation, Florin is in the habit of asking tons of "captain obvious" questions- in his line of work nothing should be left to assumption, and even the smallest detail can be significant. Unfortunately, it's bled over into his low-stakes interpersonal interactions too. He has definitely accidentally interrogated people before. With all that being said- Florin usually just dislikes people as opposed to making sworn enemies. When he thinks of the person who he should hate, Florin just feels sad. He's much more likely to have people that annoy him- but normally he just avoids or tunes them out- he has more important things to do than throw around insults. » Choke and Die » Hardcore Hatred » Mutual Hatred » Florin Hates You » You Hate Florin » Mutual Dislike » Florin Dislikes You » You Dislike Florin » Annoyance » One Sided Annoyance » Florin Backstabbed You » You Backstabbed Florin » Non-Friendly Rivals » Friendly Rivals » Friends Turned Enemies » Love-Hate » By Association Make yourself a martyr's pet, and watch them all escape. Make yourself at home instead, you'll lose your toxic ways. Go in alone, suffer for your feelings, I'm not enough, but everyone's a little bitter all of the time. As for romance, Florin goes through phases. He can go years without thinking about love or dating, and then he'll really care about, and be focused on it, for a few months- then back to not caring for a while again. It's not that he's completely uninterested, he just always has something better to do. Florin isn't the sort of person to meet someone and suddenly decide they're the love of his life- he doesn't really do head-over-heels- then again he's not the type of person to ever feel strong emotions. He's most likely to develop feelings for someone gradually. When it comes to flirting, Florin doesn't really get subtlety. If you want this man's attention you're better off tying a love letter to a brick and hitting him in the head with it. » In Love » Florin Is In Love With You » You're In Love With Florin » Current Relationship » Past Relationship - Good Terms » Past Relationship - Bad Terms » Past Relationship - Still Chemistry » Past Relationship - Want it Back » Mutual Crush » Florin Has a Crush on You » You Have a Crush on Florin » Friends With Benefits » Fuck Buddies » Fling » One Night Stand » Make-Out Buddies » Sexual Tension » Physical Attraction » Innocent Flirting » Shameless Flirting » On and Off Time to think it over- over trying to overthink. I've had enough, everybody's limited to what's on their mind. Florin is, essentially, a surveillance camera. Even if he wasn't paying attention - he remembers everything. Perhaps Florin has seen something that your character needs him to recall- even if he wasn't paying attention at the time. Although Florin tends to come off as uncaring, he doesn't shrug off requests for help easily- unless he really feels like it's a waste of his time. When he can replay the same memory over and over repeatedly, he has lots of time to analyze and figure out people's weaknesses. He would need an impetus to do so, however, otherwise it's all just the background to whatever he was actually focusing on doing. The first thing Florin is going to do is find a way to defend himself- he doesn't like relying on weapons- but like with Julian, he recognizes that he is majorly disadvantaged here. While ignoring the people around him is a pretty major problem- I actually think most people don't want to be the object of Florin's hyper-focus. Being profiled down to your most minute of habits is not particularly pleasant. Florin's line of work is usually focused on guilty parties, but he also has a deep sense of justice. There have been more than a few times when he's helped someone hide, or flee, before the mob could catch up to them. Since he has been so caught up in his job, Florin hasn't heard of the resistance. Aside from his run-in with Julian, he has no known ties to the gifted world. He's going to be fairly preoccupied solving the puzzle that's literally fallen into his lap, but he'll be drawn that way eventually. » Bad Influence » Good Influence » Mixed Feelings » Mutual Respect » Florin Respects You » You Respect Florin » Mutual Admiration » Florin Admires You » You Admire Florin » Florin Is Protective of You » You're Protective of Florin » Emotional Support » Stalker » Obsession » Fake Friend » Knew Each Other Outside » Anything Else/Other Anything striked out is unavailable for one reason or another.

name; Rudolph Smith gender; Agender age; 28 orientation; Unsure relationship(s); While Rudolph is trying to stick to himself, he can't help but notice Florin, who somehow manages to keep to himself even more than he does. you say; "I've never met a real genius before." name; Stephen Choi gender; Male age; 35 orientation; Heterosexual relationship(s); A genius with a law enforcement background is not the kind of person that Stephen wants to get mixed up with. Even if he's not doing anything outright nefarious this go-around. It doesn't really matter that Stephen isn't exactly the kind of criminal that Florin is interested in- he's not on his radar, even. you say; "Better safe than sorry." name; Jude Lee gender; Male age; 25 orientation; Pansexual relationship(s); Florin is Jude's older cousin. Ever since he first met him, Jude has resented Florin. He's a genius who's never had to struggle in school- he could have gone anywhere he wanted. Since they've only met each other a couple of times, they're not particularly close. Unlike Florin, Jude is blissfully unaware of the family drama that went on before he was born. you say; "I didn't think I'd meet him here." name; Guy Noh gender; Male age; 28 orientation; Pansexual relationship(s); Once Guy starts working with Deven, he's going to find himself coming to Florin with all kinds of wild and puzzling questions- such as: How fast exactly does a skateboard have to go for you to crack your skull, and also: From what height can someone jump and survive if they hit their head? The scary thing is, he usually has an answer. you say; "He's a genius, right? So he's gotta balance the rest of us out on this." name; Noel Yang gender; Male age; 44 orientation; Asexual relationship(s); While Noel has been working diligently on his research, there are more than a few snags that he and his team have run into. While he has him here, he might as well pass along carefully curated bits of his work to an actual genius. If people are already wondering if he does any work at all- it can't hurt to actually outsource for once. you say; "It's a shame he's on the other side of the glass." name; Hana Yang gender; Female (Questioning) age; 28 orientation; Unsure relationship(s); At first Florin will be occupied with reading and memorizing everything in the library. After that, Hana's going to have to come up with something else for him to do. Her uncle will occasionally ask her to bring Florin a thing or two, but she doesn't really understand what he's looking at. It's not like she can use her usual strategy of cloning him- what are they going to do, have a debate? ... She could maybe encourage him to analyze his classmates and help them both improve that way. you say; "Florin is a special case. I'll have to think carefully about it going forward." name; Rivalen Moore gender; Male age; 27 orientation; Asexual relationship(s); Are monsters born, or are they made? Rivalen is not ignorant of his own nature. It's an intriguing question: one he, himself, will want an answer to. you say; "I've been called a monster before, this could be fun."
