~~Family and History Information~~

Father’s Information:: Noah James Ryan, 40 years old. Noah has always been the level-headed one, often the voice of reason when chaos arrives. Even though he came from a pretty well-off family, Noah never had a silver spoon in his mouth. He learned to value things, and to work hard at everything he does. He has always seen himself as equal to those around him, although he struggles to understand some things, such as the LGBTQ spectrum of things. He doesn’t exactly trash it, but he’s rather unsure and uneasy about the whole thing-- He doesn’t even know that Seth’s gay, but that’s probably due to the barrier that Seth puts between them.
Noah is rather tall, reaching just over 6’2 in height. He has light brown hair, often cut rather short and even gelled back to a degree. His light blue eyes seem to always be focused on something, and they tend to betray his emotions. His clothing style is a bit more on the formal side, a trait from his childhood- You always want to look your best, you never know what might happen.
Noah loves his family dearly, so it actually hurts quite badly that his own son resents him to such a large degree, and doesn’t exactly understand where the resentment truly sparked from- And yet he has a pretty good idea.. And that idea was out of his reach, he had no way of changing it. As he tries to get along with his son, it’s proving to be more and more difficult, and it’s becoming harder and harder to keep his temper- Something that Noah has never been used to before.


Mother’s Information:: Davina Rose Ryan, 38 years old. Although she’s quiet and rather reserved, she is far from being a pushover or weak. She has opinions of her own, and is quite the independent soul when it comes right down to it-- Perhaps that is why Noah and her marriage works out so well.. They both can live on their own, but enjoy living together more. Due to her quieter nature, there’s rarely any major arguments, though sometimes their relationship is strained with the behavior and dealings with their son, Seth. THey see two totally different sides of the coin, and it’s becoming more and more difficult to find a middle ground.
In general, Davina is quite energetic and positive, a trait that she feels she must have while teaching her younger classes. She’s a teacher, a proud one, and puts all of her work into trying to further her teaching skills. However, despite being named one of the best teachers in the small school, the fact that she can’t control her own kid haunts her. Granted, her son is now a teenager, but it still irks her how bad her child got, especially so quickly.
Davina is relatively short, only being 5’3 in comparison to her 6’2 tall husband. She has sandy blonde hair that reaches down to her shoulder blades, often somewhat wavy rather than straight. Her eyes are a softer blue-green, and often seem soft or distant. She tends to wear lighter colors, although a tiny bit on the formal side, more than likely a habit from being a teacher.
Although Davina really does love her son, his rebellious attitude is slowly tearing the once happy-go-lucky family apart. She had always spoken well of Noah, even as he went overseas for the army, so she isn’t sure of where the resentment came from, or why. She tries to keep a level head, the type she uses when dealing with a rowdy child in her class, but it’s proving difficult for her as well. Lately, her and Noah have been arguing quite a bit, both frustrated and unsure of what to do with Seth… and it doesn’t help that another baby is on its way.

~~History~~~
Noah James Ryan was one who was born in a well off family, one of the more known ones as well… and yet, he was treated like any other kid. He learned the value of the penny, the compassion to help others out when the chance arises, and to work incredibly hard on everything you do. By the time he was twelve years old, Noah had two steady jobs-- Car washing and mowing yards. By the time he was fifteen, he had an actual job at a fast food joint, saving up every dime he could. By the end of his sixteenth year, he had his own car. However, his focus changed to completing his education. He was quietly enrolled into Metric at sixteen, and did quite well in his classes.
When he was seventeen, he found his crush that shared four of five of his classes. Her name was Davina Rose Kastor, a rather independent, carefree, wild girl with a gentle side. Rather than /he/ asking her out, /she/ asked him out. They were considered one of the ‘power couples’. They stayed together since then, both graduating from Metric College.
Shortly after graduating, the two finally got a place of their own, and were soon expectant parents-- Though the pregnancy was far beyond expected. Noah was only 23 at the time, Davina being only 21. Noah enrolled into the army in hopes to earn a solid living for his small family, but wasn’t called upon until three years later. Noah was 26, Davina was 24, and Seth was 3. As he went to the army, things began to drastically change.
Seth got to questioning when his daddy would return, why he left, doesn’t he love us? He soon found the answers unsatisfactory. As Christmas, Thanksgiving, birthdays, july 4ths, and other holidays passed by, the resentment within young Seth continued to grow-- His daddy hated them, and he hated him for leaving. He had it in his head that he would never see his dad again, and assumed he was dead.
One Christmas, things would change yet again. At this time, Seth was 7 years old, Noah 30, Davina 28. Noah had returned from being deployed, and was quite eager to return home. As he knocked on his house door, he felt nervous and jittery all over as he awaited for it to open. It was Seth, who scoffed faintly and turned around.
“Mom! There’s a stranger at the door!” He had shouted before moving back towards the presents. Once Noah stayed and moved in, something inside of Seth seemed to snap. He got very hostile and violent, which only increased as time went on. Due to his behavior, he was rejected from Metric, and was then enrolled into Salem High. It was a bit disappointing for his parents, as they were formal Metric students.
Once Seth turned thirteen, he started hanging out with the wrong crowd, and refused to listen to authority unless it benefited him. He started smoking cigarettes, started fighting, and staying away from home for days and days upon time. He was rather arrogant and short-tempered, and refuses to claim Noah as his father… He won’t really even talk to him, just jabs and arguments.

In current times, things are strained as ever, and he now has a sibling on the way… and that seems to only fuel his demands of being outside and away from the household-- He doesn't even call it home anymore.
