Spent some time in university homeless and couch-surfing, recieved a lot of support from Neuvillette and Clorinde
Committed himself to boxing to pay off his student loans, fought in low-key illegal underground fight rings as a teen, before graduating to actual amateur events
Most of his scars are from those aforementioned underground ring scraps as a 15-19 year old
Got thrown in jail for a little bit and had to do community service hours, at least he made decent money from the fights
Discovered his bisexuality in public gym showers, half-joking
Enjoys taking it up the other end

Supports Rango being a stay-at-home-dad but thinks he's doing it for the wrong reasons
Thinks he needs to touch grass and interact with the outside world more
Unknowingly funds Rango's gacha rolls
Thinks he should get a job or even just volunteer, and is concerned with his mental well-being, but isn't sure how to bring it up
Ollie is his pride and joy, has a ring with her initials on it and has photos of her in his wallet
Bought piles of parenting books before her birth, read articles and studies on Asian Tiger Parenting so he can break Rango's generational cycle

Quit his job after having Ollie, never went back
Hates working, hates colleagues and bosses, has zero motivation to do anything productive for society

Was colicky for the first couple of months, but then stopped crying regularly in favor of staring at you with those soulless, uncanny eyes
