description

This could be any young, male college student, and maybe it is. Gareth has dark brown hair, a supercuts style that's about four months past its due date. His skin seems naturally lightly-tanned and smooth, eyes an unrecognizable slur tht might be blue, might be brown, might be hazel, the combination that might come from a geneticist that is both indecisive and lazy. Add to a mild mouth, decent cheekbones and jaw - the only thing that stands out is an otherwise slight nose that looks like it was broken and reset at some point long in the past.

Gareth is possessed of a nervous energy. Today he wears a long-sleeved flannel shirt, a purple tee shirt with some kind of retro-gaming design on it, worn jeans, and Converse all-stars shoes. He might walk with a mild limp - or maybe people just have vivid imaginations. Nah, on second thought, he walks just fine.

music

Gareth's Theme Song (this week):
Enjoy The Struggle - Therapy?

Poor old Syssiphus, poor old us
An uphill struggle, no one gives a toss
So we get angry, drunk or lost

quotes

(Wren) gives the woman a mischivous smile then looks back toward Gareth. "Who is he?" she gestures toward him.

"He is the Ring-winner and Luckwearer; he is the Barrel-rider. Or, maybe just this guy I see around. Hangs out here and at the Frontier. If I gave him real titles, instead of hobbit titles, they'd be The Egg Lover, and The Counter Hugger," Maxine quirks half a smile in Gareth's direction.

You paged Joel with ‘Ha! Same uniform :)’
It's 2:30 in the morning, so perhaps Gareth could be excused for being surprised. Joel assesses him, then looks down at himself -- they're both wearing flannel, a tee, and Chucks. "I like your style," Joel nods sagely to the new arrival.
Joel pages: I lol'd.
Joel pages: Even the same color eyes. You're like my TWIN
You paged Joel with ‘Holy crap. I thought I was so cool for writing that desc, too.’
You paged Joel with ‘Great minds and all :)’
From afar, Joel nods. Great minds think alike. Ours do, too!
