Bubbles || Out Of Place

Bubbles Kekoa is an anthropomorphic tall buff beetle and a 3rd year Sports Management student at ManaHigh (College)

Bubbles has always been energetic and impulsive. As a lad, he did whatever he wanted and bounced between every activity he could find to keep him entertained. This caused problems though, as his peers were anything but that. They quickly became overwhelmed, which left Bubbles feeling lost and alone. There were times he cried himself to sleep, wondering if something was wrong with him.

And that is when he met Eddie. Eddie was loud, confident and so sure of himself. He was drawn to him and soon began dragging him along for all his favourite activities. They bounced off each other well, visiting the local gym to train before sparring to help Eddie hone his skills.

Still, something was missing. Eddie was great, but something at the back of his mind kept telling him it wouldn't last. 'He'll get tired of you someday', 'Don't get too comfortable', 'Eddie deserves better'. Each thought chipped at his self esteem, until the point he had to force himself to smile and laugh to avoid giving it away. He couldn't bring it up with Eddie, he'd sound completely insane and that might chase him off too.

To cope with his spiralling mind, Bubbles got even bolder. He jumped at every activity to distract himself and took Eddie along for the ride. He even convinced Eddie to join him in fighting against the local punks to 'train their muscles', a totally insane idea but Eddie LOVED IT. After the fight and ending up in the hospital with minor injuries, he still didn't stop. Every day was a new activity to keep his brain active.

Then he met Steven thanks to Eddie introducing them. Steven was timid, shy and so pitiful it was sad. Bubbles had the perfect buddy to play with that wouldn't say no. He and Eddie dragged Steven everywhere, taking him on 'manly' adventures to make them big boys. And he helped Steven in the process; Steven got bolder, not by much but enough to actually use his talent for baseball. Bubbles felt so proud watching him claim his first award and plans to continue supporting him.

Licht is another friend he has, mostly due to Eddie being so determined to 'recruit' him. With Licht, Bubbles' not sure what to think. Licht looked even more put together than Eddie and had this... aura that made everyone look up to him. Perfect. At school, at swimming and pretty much everything that he was not. Licht was pretty standoffish, so he couldn't drag him around as easily as Steven, but when they did mess around, it was a blast!

At College, Bubbles met up with Eddie, Steven and Licht and they remained good friends. They supported each other as they pursued their different sporting careers. They were kind of a riot, often overwhelming everyone around them with a symphony of chaos and laughter. But the voice inside his head wouldn't go away. He feared that one day, his hyper-active presence would drive them away and leave him truly alone.

Bubbles has a loud, energetic, and boisterous personality. He actively puts himself out there to make friends and will always say yes to a night out. But he has his fears. He remembers the people he tried to connect with. They were drawn to him at first, but after a few hangouts they distanced themselves. After many failed relationship attempts and being ignored, he learned that his energy was just... too much for them.

Bubbles has a loud, hyper-active speaking style. He is always talking about one thing or the other, never a dull moment when he is around. He might start with gym talk, then class and suddenly he's dragged them to a mountain biking event.

Bubbles has been into gym culture and working out since he was young. He lifted weights and did whatever he could to look the best he could be. Even now that he's big and strong in all the right places, he doesn't stop. Somewhere inside, he hopes that the better he looks the more likely the people he tries to befriend stay.

Bubbles spends most of his time at Primer Fitness, a gym owned by the Alligator, Craig. He doesn't train here because of the equipment or even the location. He trains here because he looks up to Craig. Craig was a big guy who everyone loves. No one gives Craig strange looks when he offers to hangout, no one avoids Craig when he pulls them into a hug. A part of Bubbles feels jealous, but another wishes that was him. If he weren't so overbearing, maybe he wouldn't only have 3 friends.

Bubbles is insecure. Not from his looks or his academics, but from his sense of self. All his life, he has been the guy who always got in the way. Everyone had close friends they'd die for, but him? He'd get people he liked, but they withdrew. He knows its because he's suffocating them, but that isn't something he can change overnight.

Bubbles is intense. Bubbles' energy isn't just loud and annoying, it is focused and sharper than any blade on earth. When Bubbles sets his mind on something, he does not back down. He powers through no matter how much it hurts because quitting is NEVER an option. This standard extends to anyone he meets. If he hears someone's goal, he'll go out of his way to push them forward. Sometimes he'd drag them out of bed and 'hype' them up till they get started. This becomes even worse with exercise related goals. He'll chase them to the ends of the earth and be the most suffocating shadow until they succeed. After a few 'annoying' pushes and dealing with his 'manic aura', they leave and avoid him like the plague.

Bubbles has heard the rumours. Everyone at college thinks he's a crazy, obsessive and the 'super jock' who's always watching. He tries to ignore it and push forward despite how much it stings.

Bubbles loves everything. He tackles any activity with 100% enthusiasm and he gets even more amped up if he's with someone else!
