And I just can't get enough
Garrett is just an average American Joe, standing tall at five foot ten in his human form. He’s seventeen years old but looks a tad older. His brown mop of hair sits just shoulder length on top of his head. Garrett also has an unusual eye color; a mix of mauve and amethyst - Which is completely natural). With an angular face and pale complexion, Garrett can be considered ‘hot’ or even ‘sexy’. He has a slim build in muscle that’s not overly buff; just perfect. And his weight isn’t even affected, leaving him at his normal a hundred forty to forty five. The teen wears a vast majority of clothes. If something strikes his eyes, he’ll wear it. Thou, he won’t go as far as to cross-dress. A majority of the time, he wears a white hoodie with purple grunge designs and baggy jeans. Or anything with white and purple for that matter. Usually, his hood is always up. And if not, he’s wearing some kind of hat. Not to mention the two lip piercings and earrings, which never leave his body. Underneath all the clothing are tattoos. On his back is a tribal dragon, practically enveloping the whole body part. And on his wrist is a paw print. And most of all, his prized possession. A purple, tiger striped, Jackson reversed neck guitar. A good friend had given it to him and he treasures it more than life itself.
As for his animal form, Garret is a regular Siberian Tiger. Thou, his tail looks more like a raccoon’s tail. But, his fur is slightly longer and soft to the touch compared to his Bengal relatives. It’s also a stunning sight to look at. His fur is so healthy that it even glistens beautifully in the sunlight. A majority of the time, Garrett will wear either purple and black stripped arm warmers or a checkerboard bandana to make himself stand out more and be recognized easily by his human friends.
It's All a Part of Me
And that's who I am
Just meeting him for the first time, one can consider Garrett to be overly flirty. However, if you’re willing to see past that and continue talking with him, you’ll find he’s really nice. Probably like a majority of flirtatious men, Garrett will fail at flirting with someone. Most likely, he’ll slip up on a sentence or fall, making a complete fool of himself. But he’ll just laugh it off rather loudly and apologize later. Nevertheless, underneath all the flirting is a very nice guy. He’s considerate and very protective. And he’s always smiling. With his friends, Garrett is always giving out tips to them. Ways to get with the ladies and who’s who in the town they’re stuck in. They all look up to him and he’s practically the leader of their makeshift gang.
If you were to hurt someone close to Garrett, prepare for a world of pain. He’d hunt you down and make you pay. He’s never really hostile but friends are friends. The whole, bros before hoes also applies. Garrett is also very charismatic. He loves talking and can spring up the most randomness of information. But that’s because he’s intelligent. Thou, he doesn’t believe so. The teen only believes he is good at storing stupid things like that. And his natural talent with music. That tends to be a favored topic of his.
It's Time to Fly
And let's just say goodbye
Garrett isn’t exactly sure where he was born specifically. For all he knew, it could have been some random forest. The tiger grew up moving all over the place. He never staid in one place for very long. A majority of the time, his father was away from home. His job forced them to move quite a bit. Sadly, Garrett never really knew what he did. Before the tiger knew it, his father was dead, leaving his mother with just him. Thankfully, Garrett didn’t have any siblings. So just taking care of him made it easier for his mother. After more moving around, since his mother continued to go thru jobs like clothing, she met Garrett’s soon to be new father. Within a year they remarried and Garrett was forced to deal with a human father.
However, an incident occurred. The step-father came to find out that both Garrett and his mother were tigers. With that, they were divorced, forcing him to live with his step-father. The step-father took claim of custody on Garrett, due to a long and horrible court battle, and forbids him from turning into a tiger. He thinks that it will turn him ‘normal’. After a ‘war’ between the two had occurred, Garrett snuck out and got himself a piercing. He was angry at the fact that his step-father, who was completely human, thought he could take care of him! A tiger! Not to mention, the step-father kept him on a super tight leash. When he came home with the two lip piercings and earrings, he wasn’t beaten. No, like a normal child, Garrett was grounded and banned from things.
After a few months post-divorce, Garrett moved once more. That when he met ‘the love of his life’; a cute little husky-wolf that went by the name Viola. Of course, his step-father didn’t know she was an animal like himself and completely approved of her. The two were always together, a perfect couple. Despite the species difference, Garrett promised her that once he was free from his step-father, he would marry her. It’s a promise he intended to keep. Until he was forced to move once again. So, saying their heartfelt goodbyes, Garrett left her behind, only baring the memory of her.
Recently, however, the two have settled down at Vale. His step-father is rarely home so Garrett takes the opportunity to leave the house and mess around. One night, a few days after finally settling into their new home, Garrett went out and got smashed. So smashed that he acquired a new tattoo. Specifically his dragon tattoo. But he wasn’t complaining. It actually looked cool. And to top it off, he added the paw print a few weeks after.
There’s the slight possibility they would be moving once more so Garrett’s out to make everyone know his name. He wants to leave an impression on everyone. Either a good or bad, it’s one’s choice. But just the thought of people remembering his name is an accomplishment in its self. One he plans on completing.
Your Voice is so Soft
Speak up so they can know you
A loud yawn came from the tiger as he sat on a bench near the fountain. He stared up at the sky, quite bored. School was back in session. Just great. However, Garrett chose to skip today. His friends, however, chose not to. Curse having human friends. No wait! He took that back! He didn’t want to curse anyone. Jumping up from his bench Garrett looked around. It didn’t seem as busy as before. What time was it? Eh, he didn’t really care. The tiger fixed his hoodie before walking along. What to do, what to do? This town had been very interesting the first time he came here. Now it seems too boring. And cramped. But the people were kind of nice.
Mauve eyes peered thru windows of shops. So many items. The tiger had been contemplating buying something from here. He had done it from all the previous places he’d been. Sadly, nothing caught his eye. Maybe he can find a piece of jewelry and send it to his mum. She always liked getting things from him. His cursed step-father had kept him away from her. But she was his true parent. So why the hell was he being forced away from her?! Changing his thoughts, Garrett continued looking around.
Scratching his hood covered head, the teen stopped. Crap. He got lost. Again. Sighing heavily, Garrett turned around and headed back the direction he came. It was getting him nowhere. Damn it all! Now if there was only some pretty lady to come by to make everything change. He held back a chuckle. That would be a miracle. And to his knowledge, if he was to hit on a random older lady (Not too old of course) there’s the chance she may be married. And that wouldn’t be good. It might be horrible even. Garrett shuddered. The thought of being beaten by a purse or something didn’t seem ever appealing.
Great. He made himself even more lost. Just freaking great. Sighing once more, Garrett went into an alley. Pondering for a bit, Garrett decided to ask someone. That would be the best. How to get back to the fountain? Yeah, that’ll work. Finding someone was easy too. And in a matter of minutes, he was back at the fountain. And oh look… The sun was close to setting. Even better! With what seemed like the hundredth sigh, Garrett headed home, another day wasted.
