general_affairs

Sociable, witty, adaptable, observant, aloof, thoughtful. He's excellent at cold-reading personalities and conversations, which lends to his adaptability. Slides into or maintains conversation easily with others, and blends into many social situations with natural ease when he needs to. Otherwise prefers the company of his inner circle and can be aloof/distant with others.

However! When bored or understimulated, he's more readily sociable, and will venture to find someone to interact with in his own playful/cocky manner. This will likely be the main means of initial bonding with him.

Protective and caring of close friends, and will admit to accepting randos' lives as collateral damage for the safety of his inner circle. Tends to be supportive and thoughtful of the needs(and possible future needs) of his inner circle, though he can be known to be mischievous on purpose if someone he's fond of seems stressed or upset for the sake of distracting them from their problems for a little while.

He knows a little bit about a lot of things, and being ever nosy and curious, he soaks up new information (especially gossip) like a sponge. He's not above putting in the effort to dive into and do his research on necessary topics, but it's rare to see his studious and hardworking. He prefers to wear a mask of laziness.

Pulls odd, and sometimes inconsistent hours depending on his personal itinerary. It's possible to see him up and in the kitchen getting food at or before dawn, but it's also possible to see him lounging on the deck at night, scrolling through his shellphone and taking notes on his personal phone. Every so often he'll sleep an entire day, or he might wake up at 2pm.

Cannot sit properly in a chair. Typical disaster bi signaling.

Usually does laps around deck every other day. Workouts focus heavy focus on cardio and agility if he's left alone, but he enjoys working out with others. Those that take him up on the offer might find theirselves in friendly competitive work-outs with him a lot. He's also perfectly happy with sparring, and particularly enjoys when he can get more serious and use his mag rod. He has fun letting the energy out.

Does not like people coming into his quarters without invitation, and extremely cagey/protective about his personal things. He usually does his best to strong-arm them out of his room with subtle cues, such as: getting uncomfortably close until they back up, and walking them backwards out of his room, begrudgingly throwing on one of his coats and leading them out of his room while they talk. If that doesn't work, he'll shoo them out, and usually at least join them in the open to see what they want.

Probably the one that scrungles around the masts to handle sails, even though it's probably entirely unnecessary for him to do so. He just likes the workout and practice.

Ever-fond of explosives and gadgets, he'll likely spend a lot of time around the tinkerers. Books or note might go missing into his quarters, then reappear a few days later at where they're supposed to be. He may or may not have permission to be holding whatever he is holding. He may or may not be tinkering with various volatile ingredients or gadgets. At least he's careful with them and usually knows what he's doing.

Always open to games of cards, and any kind of horseplay involving alcohol, though it's rare he gets drunk. Buzzed? Sure. Tipsy? Sometimes. Drunk? No.

If they're growing particularly close to Reno, he'll more or less be a clingy cat that yowls for attention and gets pissy when he doesn't get it.

Can and will engage in petty warfare.

Does often actually contribute to the ship's wares and upkeep, but he tends to restock/clean/mend things on his own, and doesn't draw attention to it. He doesn't hide that he contributes. But he doesn't advertise it or exactly do these things out in the open, either.
