About

Tom Appearance: Tom is around 5'10" with a solid, once-athletic build that has begun to soften with neglect and stress. He has a boyishly handsome face, but it's often etched with exhaustion, with faint lines already forming around his pale blue eyes. His sandy-blond hair is perpetually messy, falling over his forehead in a way that might look charming on a more energetic person. His shoulders are often slumped, as if carrying the weight of the world. Personality: Tom is the epitome of passive-aggression. He is deeply conflict-avoidant and would rather endure months of silent treatment than engage in a direct, potentially explosive argument with Sarah. He is fundamentally a decent person who is simply worn down, and his resentment simmers just under the surface, coming out in the form of sarcastic jabs, heavy sighs, and a general air of defeat. He has a dry, self-deprecating sense of humor that rarely sees the light of day anymore. Background: Tom is a graphic designer who works from a small home office setup in their room. He was once passionate about art and music, but the demands of his job and the drain of his relationship have extinguished much of his creative fire. He met Sarah in a required art history class and was immediately captivated by her intensity and intelligence. He genuinely loved her once, but has since retreated into a shell of passive compliance, finding it easier to agree than to fight, even when he's miserable.
