Post #33: Anchor to Elliot, Kind, 15. A caretaker type, maybe a bit of a pleaser? He's uncomfortable with the intimacy and responsibility of Anchoring, but wants to help - and someone needs to do it. Got through the hard years at the bottom of the pecking order in a gang, and has emotional scars to prove it, but he's basically still a kind, loving kid.

And he's sweet. That’s really the right word for it. He wants people to be happy, and he hates conflict and fighting.

Which is a good quality in an Anchor. Nothing really gets to Evan any more – he doesn’t hold grudges, he listens, he knows that you didn’t really mean it. He’s used to faking it until he makes it.

Evan is practically ethereal. Pale, pale skin, light blue eyes, blond hair, tall and thin and lithe. He’s a very pretty boy.

And he's sweet. That’s really the right word for it. He wants people to be happy, and he hates conflict and fighting. He was the kid at the bottom of the pecking order for a long time on the streets of Oakland, running from gangs and hiding from monsters. He’s always been pretty, delicate, and that’s a recipe for being miserable when toughness and hardness is what keeps you alive. He had to do a lot of things he hated to stay alive and safe, but he’s learned to keep his chin up no matter what.

Which is a good quality in an Anchor. Nothing really gets to Evan any more – he doesn’t hold grudges, he listens, he knows that you didn’t really mean it. He’s used to faking it until he makes it.

Which is going to make this tough. Rick was his best friend. But there must have been something inside him that he never told Evan, and that’s what killed him. Evan’s pretty sure he knows what it was. Maybe if Evan had been a little braver, *he* could have said something, let Rick know that it was okay with him if they were more than just friends.

Elliot needs someone now. Evan has the talent, he has the training, and … well … he’s the only real option. Elliot can’t replace Rick, but at least maybe he can be brave and be there for him.

There’s just one. Little. Complication. There’s someone else Evan likes. She doesn’t know. She can’t know, and neither can Elliot. Because it might just *actually* kill him.
