they always seem to notice my; he's skinnier than he probably should be, his puppy dog-eyes, the hat he usually wears, and the odd eyeliner patterns he sometimes wears.
you'll never see me without my; skylar's pretty damn skinny. that's the gist of it. sometimes he is surprised that the wind that blows around him doesn't just sweep him up and carry him to some faraway land. he's on the taller side of the number line for the males, but it's not all that far from the middle. to those that know him well - and even those that probably don't - his puppy dog eyes are what can reel you in the best out of all his features. his face is a bit childish-like, as if he's super close to reaching final maturation but not quite. his skin is in an excellent complexion, not a visible freckle anywhere on it, and if he ever has a zit, he usually covers it up. he disliked them in eighth grade, and he still hates them now. his hair is shiny and sleek - he's very meticulous about that - and his teeth are mostly white, though he does have a few that are a little off-color. he's slightly tanned, though not by much, and during the winter he's usually really pale. he isn't one to go all out on tattoos and piercings, just the simple ears and the angel wings on the back are enough for him.

you best remember this bitch; to sum skylar up simply, there are two sides to him. there‘s the side that most people know, and by most people, i mean the screaming fans and the stalkers who want to try and sleep with him and all that jazz. the performer. the energetic and hyper and amazing and crazy and yet also very handsome lead guitarist for the band scar tissue who nobody would ever, ever, ever think for a second was an extremely shy and quiet and very awkward person except among those he‘s known for a good part of his life and trusts completely performer, skylar jacob astrix.
well, that‘s just one half of him. the performing side of him. his real, actual personality seems to disappear the moment he realizes he‘s out on stage, and suddenly, he‘s no longer skylar jacob astrix. well, he is, but in a different way. he‘s more social, more energetic, much more loud, way less awkward...performing just breaks every boundary for him. it pushes who he is deep down and lets him be the person he wants to be, if only for a few hours.
but, for the people who know him best...sky‘s a pretty damn shy guy. actually, he‘s the guy who wrote the book on shyness and awkwardness. skylar has always had a lot of trouble communicating, ever since elementary school. he had always been the loner kid throughout most of elementary school and middle school, never one to really be picked to work with on projects or anything like that. most of the time he was left alone and the teachers had to pair him up with another group, usually to that group‘s dislike. he‘s also very quiet, generally; when you‘re too shy to get words to come out, you usually have no choice but to be quiet. he gets very nervous and embarrassed easily, meaning that stuttering and blushing and probably him running away like a little girl will most of the time ensue.
skylar not the type of person to go around having sex every ten seconds and getting drunk off his ass at the same time. not to say he hasn't done one of those things once; he got extremely drunk when he was sixteen at a party and ended up having sex with some random girl who got killed in a car crash a few weeks later. however, he'll occasionally enjoy a beer or maybe some sex, but that's generally not an everyday or every week occurrence. this translates into skylar really disliking the people who do those types of things or are just plain whores and sleep around and stuff.
skylar's easily manipulated as well. he's always wanted to be accepted, and sometimes it gets to the point where he will do anything for it, maybe even murder - not that's ever committed a murder, that is - and it's what led to him becoming anorexic in the first place. additionally, he's also very easy to beat in arguments, even if he is right. and because he's the most nervous nelly to ever exist, he has extreme trouble ever asking anybody out. so, he generally has trouble finding any girlfriends/boyfriends. he's never really had an actual significant other, just usually the rare one night stands. the closest he'd ever gotten to one was in eighth grade with jamie, who is now one of his closest friends. they only dated for about two weeks and couldn't really be called boyfriend and girlfriend.
but, not to say skylar doesn't have his friends. with his friends - the people he trusts, that is, and who get him and have managed to get close to him - he's very, very outgoing and pretty social. he rarely stutters in their presence or blushes. he's usually smiling too and talking and that's when his nice, friendly personality comes. beneath the shyness, he's a real, genuine great guy who is a great person to become friends with. the trick is to be able to get past his shyness.[/size][/ul]

west jack summers & dad & fifty-two & photographer/director
it's cause you were dropped as a child; tiffany juliet summers & sister & nineteen & actress/student
that's what i'll look like when i'm old;
bernard arnaude & grandfather on father’s side & seventy-seven & retired
you know the different kind of uncle; none, believe it or not
and the one that looks like a rat; none
pretty freakin sure we're not related; nope
yea they used to eat my shoelaces; maxxie & five years old & schnauzer
it's like hell but only faster; it all began when bianca elle arnaude was on a vacation - more of a job, really, but it felt like a vacation - in miami florida with a few of her friends and met a man by the name of west jack summers. they had no choice but to meet, as jack was the photographer for the upcoming fashion show bianca was modeling in. anyways, some things none of you probably don't want to hear about happened and they ended up married at the ages of twenty-five and twenty-seven. two years later, they were blessed by the arrival of a son by the name of skylar jacob astrix, and then after another four years, received a daughter named tiffany juliet summers.
from an early age, skylar was interested in music. his whole family was actually quite artistic - his mother would later become an artist slash set designer - his father was a photographer and the director of a few major motion pictures, and his sister would later become interested in the art of acting. skylar begged his parents, unlike most children, to let him take up the piano, and he quickly fell in love with the instrument. it was when he was seven though that he stopped taking piano lessons and decided that he wanted to take up guitar. his mother, now thirty-four, had made more than enough money by now to afford a nice house in ottawa, canada, the place where skylar was growing up, and keep the family alive and still have plenty leftover, so she bought skylar an electric guitar quickly and paid for lessons. it took less than a year for skylar to be able to grow to a well-polished player, and then by the time he was ten, he thought he had it nailed down pretty well and was by now able to write a few songs even.
but, i'm getting ahead of myself. while skylar was learning how to play guitar and piano, he was also in elementary school in ottawa, as most children were. however, he was far from being a very sociable child. he had problems fitting in and finding friends, simply because he was very, very, very shy. by the time he was nine years old, it was safe to call him a loner. he went into middle school as a very good guitarist, but as a person who had very few friends. the only person he really called a friend was ____ ____ (singer of scar tissue) but as she was a year younger than him, they rarely could ever speak to each other inside school.
skylar went through middle school making few other friends, but it was in eighth grade that he began to find some friends. he met a girl named jamie halfway through the year and the two bonded quickly, jamie becoming one of skylar's closest friends. in january of that grade, skylar found himself starting to like jamie - she wasn't the first one he liked, but she was the first person he actually thought he had a chance with - and, through a lot of stuttering and nervousness, the two began to date for a short time. they did kiss - multiple times - but after two short weeks, decided that it was too awkward to be a couple and remained friends.
as skylar entered his freshmen year of high school, his mom decided to retire from modeling and go into set design. skylar was relieved about this, as his mom traveled quite a bit for her job, and skylar and tiffany didn't get to go with her often as it was usually while they were in school - speaking of school, skylar was the average student, mostly with b's and a few a's - and she generally took their father with her, meaning that the two children were babysat by skylar's grandparents from quebec, who weren't very fluent in english, meaning that skylar had trouble communicating with them important things, like when he needed to eat and stuff. he took up a high school class in french though, just to make things simpler, even though he didn't really have to, as both of his mom's parents died a few years later.
skylar and jamie kept their friendship going, but it was in their sophomore year that things began to get troubling. by now, skylar's other best friend was in high school and in her freshman year, and they managed to find more places in the school to meet up and talk, but this isn't the cause of the drama. the cause is that skylar began to like one of his other best friend's friends, who was actually a very mean and manipulative girl. skylar worked up the nerves over a few months to ask her out, but the girl decided that she would be her usual mean self and manipulate her friend's best friend, as she had always had a crush on skylar but was jealous of how much time ____ ____ got to spend with skylar and how close the two were. so, she hatched a quite mean plan and told skylar that she only liked skinny boys. and by skinny, she meant really skinny boys. skylar had, up until this point, been in the middle of the weight range - the perfect place to be - but since he really liked this girl - the fool that he was - he decided she'd do what he asked. he began to start working out, and though his parents were glad to see their son finally starting to break out of his little creative shell and start to be like other guys his age, they didn't know the real reason why. skylar became disappointed that he wasn't losing weight fast enough, and began to go on a diet. the diet eventually turned from three healthy meals a day to two healthy meals a day to one healthy meal a day to a salad at lunch to hardly anything at all. this happened over the course of a few months, and by the time skylar was in his junior year, he weighed less than a hundred pounds and was an anorexic.
still, he went to ask the girl out, but she just harshly laughed at him and told him that he was way too skinny for her taste and that she didn't date "fucking anorexics." skylar was, for a rare occurrence, livid, but the anger quickly changed to worry. he knew he was an anorexic, and he knew how hard it was to get off that habit. his mom had told him and his sister that she'd once been close to becoming one to be a better model, but she managed to pull herself away from it, though it was hard for her to do. but skylar didn't know if he could tell his parents - he had been keeping the weight loss secret from them for a while, and a rift had begun forming between him and the rest of his family.
it was jamie who managed to help him. she'd been watching skylar lose the weight and she wasn't exactly happy about it, though she kept quiet because she didn't want to lose him as a friend. but, when he came to her and ___ ____ for help (____ ____ had kicked out the bitch friend of hers who had put skylar into this position out of her life by now), jamie was extremely happy to help. however, it wasn't an easy task. by the time skylar graduated from high school, he was still anorexic, as he was having trouble actually getting food to agree with his system.
jamie and him moved to toronto, both enrolling into a university there. however, both soon dropped out of said university, as skylar wanted to pursue a career in music and jamie wanted to help him with it. finally, when skylar was nineteen and jamie and ___ ____ were living with him in the apartment they all were renting together, they finally got skylar over a hundred pounds again and out of the bad area. still, he struggles mentally with the urges to both eat and not to eat, and hasn't gained much more weight since then, and is still pretty underweight to this day.
now, onto how he got so famous.
he and ____ ____ had actually been thinking of starting a band all throughout high school together, but the anorexia began to take too much of a place in skylar's head for him to really focus on music. he actually barely found time to play guitar in those few years. he actually had to take a few days to remember everything about it. anyways, now that skylar and ____ ____ were adults and on their own and skylar's anorexia was controlled now, they began to focus on music. ____ ____ began to sing and skylar mixed in his guitar with her voice, and they eventually attracted the attention of some other interested musicians and formed the band they named scar tissue. through jamie's help, they began to get a few gigs, where they started off playing cover songs, but eventually they got around to writing their own songs and becoming a pretty good band. they eventually got contacted by a record label, got their first CD out, and began to tour the country and start rising up to fame.[/size][/ul]

it's six am in the morning middle of winter; meep?
you must be smelling your own crotch;
when you're clouding up my mind ♥
where the heck was effy at? what, had she ended up sleeping with somebody or gotten drunk or something? knowing effy, that was the minimum of what she probably would do when she was bored. although getting drunk was probably a pretty good bet; the girl was such a drinker. a huge difference between them, as rui wasn't much a fan of alcohol - though he'd gotten a bit drunk when he'd come home and found out how much his parents seemed to hate him now. he was a bit ashamed of that, which was why nobody but sarah - who was really the only family member he trusted nowadays; jess had upset him too much by telling them about jake, and then he didn't know whether zach was on his side or his parents'. sarah was most definitely with him; she'd adored him ever since she was five years old, and she was on his side, despite her dislike of serious situations.
rui clenched his teeth together as the wind rocked his body again, and he could've sworn he moved about two inches. damn him for not eating a lot. he wasn't anorexic, or bulimic, but damn, he could be thin enough to be considered one. not exactly something he wanted to have to deal with. the paparazzi were already around his parents' mansion constantly, and he was fairly certain that he was about to be hearing about how tensions were high between ash and julia and their eldest son, who had recently been involved in a relationship with another male and had lost his virginity and all that crap. hell, somebody was probably going to figure out he'd gotten drunk sooner or later too. lovely. absolutely perfect. maybe rui should hex the paparazzi when he was out of school. when they were covered in flying bogies or something, maybe they would learn to leave people alone. in fact -
oh shit, was that who he thought it was?
rui immediately turned around, color flooding his cheeks. though he was quite glad for the heat in his numb cheeks, he wasn't exactly quite glad of the reason for it. he was fairly certain that the girl he'd just seen was alex, who he'd gone on a date with in diagon alley during the summer and then ignored for three months. lovely person he was, wasn't he? it wasn't like he didn't have his reasons though. he'd been super busy with family drama and studying and preparing for the newts, which included all the freaking homework he had, and alex was younger than him and in a different house, so he really couldn't find any time to catch up with her or anything like that...they probably should've exchanged phone numbers or something. speaking of phones, rui was so damn glad they could use phones now. not that he had many people to call, just because, well, he liked phones. speaking of phones again, he reached into his pocket - one of his jeans' pockets, not his coat's - and pulled out his phone, sending effy a quick text asking where the hell she was. then he turned around and bit his lip, looking anywhere but at alex.
ah, screw it.
he began to walk over to her, his brain wanting to run for the castle and just get the hell out of here. but, his feet were in control of his actions, and so, he came to a stop a few feet away from her. he smiled sheepishly, turning down the volume of the song a bit. "um...hey," he said, attempting to be casual and not like he was talking to a very pretty girl he'd gone on a date with three months ago and hadn't bothered talking to once since then. which resulted in him stumbling over the words a bit and ending up blushing more.
lovely.
