A super omega cutie. He does really gay things in sports like volleyball that annoy the hell outta you, but a real good player nevertheless. His mom has an omega-gyatt, but he never admits it. Also likes to go to the gym, and play basketball cuz he’s a basketball tryhard. Also hums really loudly in the back of class, not knowing it.
