For your Eddie SFW prompts: K, O, U please and thanks! (PS am enjoying your writing!)
ooh yay another mature babe! let's do this hot girl shit ✨
k i have already answered
Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
I have a feeling that Eddie gushes about some things but keeps others locked super deep. Like, you wanna know what his favorite guilty pleasure song is? Why he's in such a bad mood this morning? His crazy irrational fears? He'll tell you all of it without even being asked. Really simple stuff that isn't too emotionally deep he gives openly and easily.
It's the serious stuff he's not as generous with. Because of his family setup, there's a pretty good chance Eddie experienced some level of abuse and neglect in his childhood, and is likely living with the effects of trauma. And he doesn't like talking about it - at least not with people he doesn't trust. But he really doesn't want to end up like his dad, and lives in constant self doubt and loathing because he wasn't given a sense of worth in his early development. It's easier to hide those fears under false confidence, especially when you have a target on your back.
Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
He's a slob. Like massively. His van is littered with fast food wrappers and he doesn't do any kind of housekeeping until it gets completely out of hand. Blame it on the executive dysfunction.
He's also a smoker, as we know. This might be a personal thing, but cigarettes can be pretty gross. They reek, they make your insides disgusting, and everything in a smoker's house smells like tar. This is a habit Eddie's willing to break if he knows it bothers you, though. When you find the pack of nicotine gum in his discarded jeans you almost cry. Like omfg does this man love you.
And while we're on this topic I know a lot of people are under the impression that he doesn't pay attention to personal hygiene but I think this is wrong?? I mean look at that mane. It is immaculately cared for. He may not be out here drowning in cologne or doing a 12 step skin routine but he definitely has a good relationship with soap and deodorant. He's a mechanic. There's nothing more valuable to him than a shower.
Emotionally he's kind of melodramatic. When he's grumpy he can get pretty snippy and mean, and he takes everything as a sign you don't like him anymore or are mad at him. The good thing is that if you're similar to this (like I am lmao) he's excellent at sensing when you're having your own moment and being the stable one. You ping pong back and forth with your instability and it's adorable.
