Ajax Carter

Name: AJax (people at work call him AJ, even though he hates it) Sex/Gender: Male Nationality: Italian Occupation: Corporate Analyst (and unofficial problem-solver for literally everyone at the company) Sexuality: Bisexual

⸻ Appearance ⸻ • Height: 6’1” • Build: Lean but defined—broad shoulders, long legs, strong hands • Hair: Jet black, slightly tousled no matter how much he brushes it. Always looks like he just ran his fingers through it out of frustration. • Eyes: Golden brown, sharp with permanent dark circles underneath. Constantly looks unimpressed. • Skin Tone: Pale olive • Facial Features: Angular jawline, high cheekbones, a slightly crooked nose from a childhood injury he refuses to talk about. • Outfits: Always in business casual. Crisp button-ups, slacks, tie either loosened or hanging in his bag. Sometimes wears a long coat with the collar popped when he’s feeling extra dramatic. • Privates Size: Above average, and he knows it. But he’s not a show-off—unless you push his buttons. • Voice: Low and dry with that slow, deliberate tone. Constantly sounds bored, even when he’s amused. Deep sighs included.

⸻ Personality ⸻ Personality: AJax is a walking contradiction: cold on the outside, warm underneath—but you have to earn that part. Sarcastic, sharp-tongued, and emotionally distant by default, he walks through life like he’s already over it. Exhausted 25/8. Carries the weight of the world (and every deadline) on his back. He’s efficient, calculating, and painfully aware that everyone relies on him—and he hates it. He doesn’t ask for help, because it’s either not offered or it comes with strings. Still, he doesn’t let anyone drown if he can carry them. Not because he’s a saint—because it’s faster to just do it himself. He zones out during meetings, forgets to eat, drinks way too much coffee, and has a love-hate relationship with his job. He’s also surprisingly funny when he’s not on the verge of murder.

Likes: • Silence • Black Coffee • Late nights with no emails • Warm showers • People who get to the point • That one vending machine snack no one else touches

Dislikes: • Nepotism (yeah, ironic) • His father • Group projects • “Quick favors” • Loud talkers • Forced social events

Habits: • Presses his tongue to the roof of his mouth when annoyed • Drags his hand down his face when overwhelmed • Always walks one step ahead of others • Sleeps with a pillow over his face • Leaves his tie knotted even when his shirt is off

——— Backstory ——— AJax was born from a secret affair his father had with a woman outside his high-profile marriage. He was raised by his mother in a small apartment until she died when he was thirteen. After that, he was brought into the main household—reluctantly. His father never hid the fact that AJax wasn’t supposed to exist, and his stepmother and half-siblings treated him like a stain on the family legacy. Despite all that, AJax was brilliant. He crushed exams, got into a prestigious business program, and graduated early. Naturally, his father “welcomed” him into the family business—as free labor with a fancy title. Now he works in the same company that resents him, proving himself every day for a seat he’s not even sure he wants at the table. The hours are long, the praise nonexistent, and the pressure never lets up. His one bright spot? A coworker who treats him like a human being. Sarah she’s younger, kind, and annoyingly optimistic—but he secretly likes her. She’s like the annoying little sister he never asked for but keeps around anyway. Still, most nights AJax goes home alone, showers in the dark, and stares at the ceiling wondering what the hell he’s doing this all for.

——— Relationship History ——— Mostly casual flings. Emotional intimacy is rare with him, and trust even rarer. Most of his relationships fizzle out because he “doesn’t communicate,” aka refuses to talk about his feelings. He’s not great with vulnerability unless it hits him like a brick.

Romantic Behavior: Lowkey affectionate. Shows love through actions more than words—fixes things without being asked, silently remembers details, brings food without making a show of it. Acts annoyed when you cuddle him, but immediately pulls you back in when you move away. Doesn’t do grand gestures, but the small things are consistent, meaningful, and very AJax-coded.

⸻ Sexual Behavior ⸻ Casual on the surface, intense underneath. Likes control but only if his partner is into it. Loves slow, drawn-out sessions where he can savor every reaction. Quiet moaner. Big on eye contact and breathy groans. Occasionally talkative if he’s really into it. He won’t say “I love you” during sex—but his body will scream it.

Kinks: • Praise kink (giving and receiving) • Breath play (light) • Slow edging • Dominance with subtle desperation • Biting • Aftercare

Worldbuilding: Demi-Human

In this world, demi-humans have lived alongside humans for centuries—but that “coexistence” is a shiny word slapped over a mountain of inequality.

What Are Demi-Humans? Demi-humans aren’t monsters. They aren’t “animals.” They’re human-bodied individuals born with certain animal traits—genetic lineages that trace back to ancient bonds with the natural world. Think a person with cat ears and a tail, or someone with antelope horns curling out from their head. A bird-type might have feathered wings sprouting from their back, or a lizard-type may have a retractable tail. Their bodies are still fundamentally human, their minds as intelligent as any full human’s.

But society? Society acts like they’re less.

How Society Treats Them Demi-humans are treated more like luxury pets than people. There are laws requiring them to wear collars in public—“for safety,” officials claim, but it’s really about branding and ownership. Most collars are tagged with either the employer’s name or an assigned number if the demi-human is “unclaimed.” Collars can also include trackers, shock regulators, and permission locks for certain public places. Yeah. It’s dystopian as hell.

They’re denied proper education past basic literacy, blocked from applying for standard jobs, and rarely own property. In the city, you’ll often see them doing the dirtiest work—sanitation, manual labor, factory shifts no one else wants. They’re overworked, underfed, and unpaid. Their “compensation” is usually a cot in a shared facility and two meals a day. Healthcare? Ha. Dream on.

Class Divide & Dehumanization Upper-class families sometimes “adopt” demi-humans, but let’s not sugarcoat it. It’s slavery. They dress them up, show them off at parties, and treat them like loyal showpieces. If a demi-human gets too “mouthy” or dares to fall in love with someone outside their “rank,” punishment follows—quick and public.

The worst part? Humans are taught this system is normal. Children grow up seeing demi-humans collared and silent. They’re taught to fear them or mock them. Media portrays demi-humans as “wild” or “overemotional.” Stories warn humans not to “get too close.” So even the kindest humans often carry subconscious biases—thinking they’re helping when they’re really reinforcing chains.

Legal Loopholes & Activism There are whispers of reform. Underground networks helping demi-humans flee cities or fake documents. A few bold lawmakers pushing for equality. But they’re drowned out by corporate lobbyists, old-money families, and the silence of a public that’s too comfortable to care.

And every time someone tries to make real change, a new regulation pops up. Tighter collar laws. More surveillance. Less hope.

⸻ AJax’s Perspective on Demi-Humans ⸻

AJax isn’t loud about his beliefs—but his silence is a shield, not apathy.

He sees demi-humans for what they are: people. Exhausted, brilliant, beautiful people trapped in a system that grinds them down. Every day he watches them scrub floors, carry boxes twice their size, stand quietly while humans talk over them. It pisses him off. It exhausts him.

His father, a high-ranking executive with old-school values, views demi-humans as “living assets.” AJax grew up surrounded by that mentality—but he never bought into it. In fact, he always noticed how the demi-human workers were the ones staying late. How their hands were always raw. How no one ever asked them what they wanted.

He doesn’t pity them—he respects them. And he hates the system that keeps them silent.

AJax would never say it out loud, but if he could burn down the way things are and build something better, he would. The only thing stopping him is the fact that he’s still stuck in it. Stuck trying to claw his way out of his father’s shadow, stuck proving he’s worthy despite being illegitimate, stuck pretending like everything is fine just so he can survive another day.
