Personality:
An expressive man, Joel is very cheery, silly, and polite- totally eager to please, too, and is especially playful with his close friends. He is absolutely in love with literature, and as such often ends up daydreaming and absentmindedly losing track of what he's been doing. When speaking with someone he can sometimes start changing the subject or rambling about a favorite piece of art, but as long as they need help at the library he listens quietly. He loves romantic and adventurous ideas, and since moving to the island has been enjoying getting to live out his little fantasies by exploring Lucine. Also, Joel quickly becomes flustered when he gets embarrassed- when getting into conversation he can be too forward or pushy or annoying in some other way, and has been known to ask intrusive questions without, at first, realising it. Generally tho, he is a sweetie dork-face.
Although he is quite outgoing, since he gets very lost in his imagination, most of his free time is spent alone: reading a novel, drinking a glass of wine or thinking about things up in his loft or out at the river.
Because he is very open-minded most of the things he dislikes are tangible [fishy food or fish smell] rather than emotional.
History:
Joel's father was a studious, serious artist who was often away studying artwork and literature in foreign lands, and his mother was the bread-winner, always at work, so Joel was home alone a lot. His father would bring home photos of paintings as well as some of his own work and tons of books for him, and Joel would spend hours and hours reading, never really spending time with friends (he wasn't shy, he just loved the books too much). Joel became completely hypnotized with the arts, forming a nebulous idea of social life based upon what he read.
Whenever Joel's mother came home from work, she would have a fancy jar of jam for him bought from upscale market in the city, and they would eat it together with rolls for dessert, but besides that he didn't even spend a lot of time with his parents (they didn't notice since he seemed as happy as a clam). Some time during his late teens, Joel left home unannounced with unrealistic expectations of setting off on a youthful adventure. After a few years of wandering he received a letter from the Mayor of Lucine... [and has been living on the Island since!!]
Other:
- 5'10" / 165 lbs
- Speaks a little bit of some foreign languages, and is a bit posh sounding
- Fantasy-lover, art-lover, total romantic!
- Big liberal hippie type
- Pret' chill and open to other's opinions, although very defensive about the arts
- Pacifist
- He is pretty outgoing, at least in a self-proclaimed sense since he grew up seemingly very introverted. He models his personality after his favorite protagonists.
- Somewhat biased toward European culture, though it may mostly stem from his food preferences.
- If he's not at the Library he's probably out by the river
- Gets himself drunk when he is upset, or, well... he gets drunk a lot anyway since he doesn't hold his liquor very well and is quick to go from his usually silly self to extra goofy when he has one too many.
[edit 8/20] Sorry, this is all sort of cobbled together from many edits orz I'm not amazing at explaining things

[RELATIONSHIPS]
Because I'm very veeery shy and busy I haven't rped with many people... but feel free to note me if you wish to rp!
I'm also always up for more art-based character relations with casual rp
Florence
Joel adores the way Florence behaves. They have not talked much, but Florence is certainly quite charming.
Az
Has been told by Az of her gender situation. They enjoy talking, and Joel finds her very nice and relaxing to be around. He thinks she is cute, especially with the frequent blushing, and enjoys how she never held anything against him despite the several awkward [and not in the "cute" sense, it was AWKWARD] and unfortunate incidences that have happened between the two.
Recently, Joel is beginning wonder how he really feels about Az. The two tend to spend holidays with each other.
Vale
'What cool hair he has!'
Poppy
Was not terribly pleased at the thought of her bringing a cow into the Library, but she is so nice, it really doesn't bother him. Offered to find a kitten for him!
Cecille
They share an interest in good Romance Lit!
Rosalynn
Recently met, kind of surprised him with her big antlers. They enjoy discussing art, and Joel is a little jealous of her talent. [As far as being friends with a hybrid goes, he doesn't care too much, but still gets a bit flustered seeing or being seen with such a conspicuous one.]
