Social Life: In recent years Sean has slowly been trying to break from his shyness record. Back in Keene he is a prominent member of the Theatre group but here at Metric he still does not know many people. Shyanne Volle has at least shown him kindness though, so that gives him some sort of confidence in himself. He hopes Metric will help him finally break out of his shell.
Notable Possessions: Sean has glasses that he hates but absolutely needs. He's tried contacts but they irritate his eyes far too much.
As said before, Sean loves his Irish heritage. He has a Claddagh Ring that he always wears and a Pendant he's been instructed to only give to the girl he marries on their wedding day.
Also, even though Sean refused, his father bought him a car this year that he expects Sean to drive. Sean has never been into flashy things but he has to admit the 2016 Mercedes Benz AMG GT handles really well. He just wishes it was green and not yellow.
Donna Gallagher|| best friend from North Quincy High and Keene State College. She was the only one in his hometown that took the effort to actually get to know him. Part of it is she was also bullied (for her weight) but they stuck by each other. There has been much speculation from their families as to whether or not there is something more between the two of them. This is not the case, though. Donna has her eyes on someone else.
Shyanne Volle|| unknown what she is exactly to him, really. After he threw up on her shoes she seemed to be determined to show him hell. But then they began to hang out--though mostly for shopping-- and things did not seem so bad. Sean does have a slight crush on her (which he refuses to acknowledge for now) but at the same time she annoys the heck out of him. He did get beaten up to the point of hospitalization for her, however, in an effort to protect her. Although Sean claims to not really care about SHyanne and her personal relationships, he actually cares a great deal and does not wish to see her hurt.
Nora Acker|| an unlikely friend. When they first met Sean thought she was just like Shyanne but they surprised each other. Sean finds her surprisingly easy to talk to and they confide in each other the things that annoy them. She has also taken it upon herself to 'teach' Sean how to overcome his stage fright so he might have a bigger part in the theatre productions, for which he is grateful for.
Gregory Yonkers|| Victor Bonneau's lackey.. Sean wouldn't say he hates the guy but he definitely feels a little amnesty towards him. He sees Greg as spineless and just a little yes-man. Can this guy have an idea of his own? Sean doesn't wish harm to come to people but someone needs to knock some sense into this guy.
Victor Bonneau|| the asshole. Victor beat the living shit out of Sean, but it was probably for the best. The SHS jerk dared to threaten Shyanne. Victor is just a bully type and Sean does not like him at all. He would not mind never seeing him again, and hopes the guy stays far away from Shyanne.
When Seamus O'Murphy III came to America from Ireland he settled in Cambridge, MA and opened up a patent office. Within two decades the Murphy clan was well off and his son, Thomas, began a lifelong investment in legal work. A few generations later and Donovan Murphy II was living in a large mansion with his arranged wife and three children.
Donovan ruled his house with an iron fist and did not stand for slackership. All his children were expected to adhere to his rules and maintain the family legacy of lawyers, doctors, and public officials. However Sean, the youngest, didn't feel drawn to that life. Ever since he saw Cats performed on Broadway he has been drawn to the theatre. The lights, the costumes, the drama, the music and choreography.. It was magic.
His father never approved but his mother adored everything her son aspired to. But Donovan was determined to make his son into a politician. He forced Sean to run for office in school but the day he was to deliver his speech was the day Sean realized the horrible truth about himself: he had the worst case of stagefright. Merely four sentences into his speech Sean vomited all over the podium. His father gave up hope for his son.
In high school Sean was allowed to pursue his love of the theatre. Though he possessed the talent to be an excellent actor, his confidence was nearly nonexistent. many of his classmates, save his only friend, bullied him about being a nerd and spread rumors about him being gay. It was hell for him but he survived.
He retreated to Keene State College with his friend after high school, where he became the king of the techies. With his top grades and artistic promise he was able to--through sheer luck-- land the opportunity to arrange a student exchange with Metric. The agreement was that Sean would spend his sophomore year attending Metric.
Things are much different here, but perhaps for the better. After an unfortunate encounter with Shyanne Volle (which ended with him throwing up on her shoes) he was accepted into the theatre community. Though he still does not know everyone he has enough respect and has found that his confidence is actually growing. He is not as afraid to stand up for himself or others, or call people out on their shit. Perhaps it is from being associated with Shyanne, or not. But Metric is slowly changing him.
