🎬 + Mal
send me 🎬 + an OC of mine and I’ll give you 5 tropes that apply to them!
last, but certainly not least:
Mal
Embarrassing First Name (Thus, he goes by Mal. Or, depending on the situation/circumstance: Alex, Zander, Hunter, or Leo)
Mental Health Recovery Arc (*wiggles hand* Sort of? The idea is he’s still mentally ill but has better means of managing it, since recovery isn’t a one-size-fits-all and sometimes it’s an ongoing process without a definite ‘end’.)
The Charmer (…when he’s not too busy, yanno, being a contrite, cynical bastard, he can be pretty darn pleasant!)
Addiction Displacement (Alcohol, then cocaine, then back to alcohol when doing lines made him susceptible to nosebleeds in dry weather; and, arguably sprinkled throughout, sex)
