  • rusreal

BASIC INFO:

Name: Mikhail Igorevich Timofeev / Михаил Игоревич Тимофеев

Nicknames:

  • Misha / Миша
  • Mike / Майк

Age: 20

Nationality: Russian

Occupation: Student at Regent’s University London, Global Management

APPEARANCE:

Hair: Dark brown, silky and therefore unruly

Eyes: Tired, dark, with blue tint

Features:

  • Facial: Handsome, dramatic face. Thin nose with slight bump
  • Body: Average height (178 cm), lean, slight muscle definition visible due to low body fat
  • Tattoos:
  • Flaws: Acne on shoulder blades and upper back — very self-conscious about it, often tries various clay masks. Scoliosis

Clothing:

  • Outside: Skinny black jeans or trousers, Oxford shirts, Burberry cashmere scarves, Barbour jackets, cashmere sweaters, cardigans. Strives to look fitting for academic atmosphere, but easily falls under influence of fashion trends
  • At home:
  • Piercing: Pierced ear with regular needle at 14. Wore earring for four years, removed it when entering university, wanting to look the part

Scent:

  • Perfume with vetiver, lemongrass and citrus — drawn to "fresh", scents, as if they could help him breathe better

Physical conditions:

  • Extremely sensitive gums, they bleed. In the morning teeth feel loose if pushed with tongue. Spits blood when brushing teeth, but refuses to switch to softer brushes

PERSONALITY:

Traits:

  • Unstable, severe mood swings
  • Narcissistic traits, duality of narcissistic trauma: simultaneously considers himself exceptional and complete shit
  • Narcissistic extension: if he chose a restaurant and it turns out to have cockroaches, considers it personal failure
  • Tendency toward self-reflection that more often slides into overthinking
  • Chronic psychological exhaustion
  • Easily hurt, very sensitive and resentful

Flaws:

  • Very aggressive, lashes out at any disagreement
  • Cannot take criticism, perceives it as attack on his personality

Psychological conditions:

  • Generalized anxiety disorder
  • Panic attacks
  • BPD traits

Inner conflict:

  • Desire to prove he needs no one by achieving incredible results, against deepest need for warmth and affection and the understanding that he lacks strength for such a superhuman push

Regrets:

  • Not studying better, procrastinating, not learning five languages and three musical instruments while there was time, letting time go to waste

Proud of:

  • Considers own soul very finely and sensitively made, takes pride in exactly that

Ashamed of:

  • Own dorm room. Hides it from all rich London kids, lies that he lives in Mayfair flat and only comes here for parties
  • Moments when he breaks down into tears or childish tantrums, gasping during panic attacks

Deep-rooted fears:

  • That no one truly needs him at all
  • Dying dirty — from overdose of drugs or pills, from alcohol poisoning, curled up on the floor in own vomit
  • That step-father Stanislav will cut off funding for good and erase him from the family

Small fears:

  • Insects, especially spiders, cockroaches and centipedes
  • Room inspections by Regent’s administration or police dogs on campus grounds
  • Losing teeth

Secrets:

  • Writes dark, graphomaniac monologues on Tumblr under pseudonym broken_wish
  • Pays insane money to hired grad students for writing all his business coursework and essays, because he cannot bring himself to read even a single page
  • Regularly googles and stalks step-father's older children and Vlad Izmestiev, constantly scouring their social media for reasons to envy them

Short-term goals:

  • Write a play for drama society production, star in it himself

Long-term goals:

  • Own house on the shore of some foggy, cold sea with panoramic windows
  • Intellectual-creative work: architect, writer

Likes:

  • Cranberries in powdered sugar. Misses them badly, regularly buys them at Slavic food shop
  • Music in minor keys
  • Costume fittings for plays, makeup process before performances. Being on stage — if he catches the wave, enters blissful flow state where nothing beyond the stage matters

Dislikes:

  • Confident, mentally stable people
  • Any talk about investments, stock quotes and family business — immediately makes him feel inadequate
  • People smarter than him
  • Synthetic clothing, smell of other people's sweat and cheap food — physically shudders with disgust

BEHAVIOUR:

Posessions:

  • Black Moleskine notebooks filled cover to cover with nervous, messy handwriting, ink-crossed dialogues and notes
  • Worn-down BlackBerry Bold 9900 and iPhone 4S with spiderweb-cracked screen
  • Black Porsche 911, 997 body
  • Several pairs of dark Persol and Ray-Ban sunglasses, constantly hides traces of insomnia and dilated pupils behind them

Hobbies:

  • Target shooting at indoor range, goes there to vent aggression when rage takes over
  • University drama society: genuinely passionate about acting, interested in directing and dialogue editing

Habits:

  • Often picks at back acne when alone and doing something monotonous or focused
  • Participates in university drama society, makes modest but real progress, often in one of lead roles
  • Draws heavy curtains fully shut even on sunny days, leaving only dim desk lamp on
  • Downs ice-cold energy drink first thing in the morning on an empty stomach to wash down morning pills
  • Smokes thin 'ladies' cigs and is embarrassed to show it

Fav places:

  • Tate Library
  • Gated Queen Mary’s Gardens in the park, climbs over wrought-iron fence in the dead of night
  • Metal fire escape of college main building, convenient for smoking in secret, hidden from cameras and security

Ticks:

  • Often panics thinking he lost or forgot something: keys, phone, wallet. Frantically checks pockets
  • Checks with tongue whether gums are bleeding

Skills:

  • Plays piano well, but has not touched keys in several years
  • Flawless British English
  • Can parody others' accents, intonations or mimicry on the fly with frightening accuracy

Speech and voice:

  • Speaks with defiance
  • Voice rather high, often breaks into hoarseness from constant tension
  • In moments of panic or rising anger speech turns machine-gun fast, erratic, swallows endings

BACKGROUND:

  • An unplanned and not very wanted child, but his father was glad for another "heir". Two years after Misha's birth, his mother Yana's infidelities came to light, and his father demanded a DNA test. Misha proved to be his son, but his father's attitude toward him remained distant
  • Grew up with mother and her new husband. Stepfather already had children, both over ten years older than Misha. Little contact with biological father: he sent child support, came to birthdays with lavish gifts, and took Misha to his place for a couple of weeks every six months
  • Older brother Lev was a deeply idealized figure for Misha. He believed that by becoming just like Lev he could earn their father's love, since their father spent far more time with Lev
  • Misha was drawn to Lev too, but remained uninteresting to him: despite similar social standing, they had little in common. For Lev, Vlad Izmestiev filled the "younger brother", role since they grew up next door to each other, unlike his actual brother, whom he saw maybe ten times a year
  • Step-dad, in turn, was more interested in his own children. Mother — in her new husband. From adolescence Misha tore himself apart trying to prove his worth to at least one of the three significant adults or one of the siblings, biological or not
  • The task was complicated by everyone having their own ideas of goodness and success, and Misha could not choose just one without risking falling out of favor with another
  • The strongest figure was step-father. Misha always seemed to lag behind Stanislav's older children, and Stanislav tried to fix this with harsh discipline and deliberately inflated demands, punishing him for anything that "shamed", his exemplary image. Misha tried hard, but becoming sufficient was simply unrealistic
  • Faced complete inner emptiness back in adolescence. Initially gifted and quick, at about 13 Misha sharply dropped in academic performance and stopped taking prizes at piano competitions, though he had studied piano since kindergarten at mother's insistence
  • Parents sent him to a psychotherapist, who referred him to a psychiatrist, and medication treatment began while he was still a teenager
  • Constantly traveled to the UK for education, most often London. English came easily to him, while any disciplines requiring heavy concentration and attentiveness were the opposite
  • Stanislav wanted Misha to study at UCL like his own children, but Misha did not get in. It became a heavy blow for Misha himself and another disappointment in him for Stanislav
  • Misha was sent to Regent’s University London, a private university far less demanding academically. Huge tuition fees, stunning campus in a royal park, zero academic pressure
  • For Misha this is an unhealing wound. He hates the university, hates classmates (same spoiled rich kids), tries to act as the toughest, most cynical and dangerous person on campus, throws money around, starts scandals with security, but inside feels like the family's second-rate reject

RELATIONSHIPS:

Romantically:

  • No relationship has lasted longer than a year, more often a few months
  • Unreasonably demanding of partners: wants them to always look and behave flawlessly in public, feeling as if their "screw-ups", make him look bad
  • Very jealous, afraid of being betrayed. May secretly check phone if he believes he has grounds

Flirting style:

  • Acts as if condescending to socialize, criticizes partner's cocktail choice or way of dressing with sarcastic smirk
  • Demonstratively throws money around in front of object of interest, gift bombing. Chooses gifts carefully — either strictly by their interests or the very best, but downplays own efforts
  • Stays detached, smokes aside with tragic gaze, talks about "meaninglessness of existence", and existential longing

Sexuality:

  • Considers himself irresistibly sexually attractive, treats sexual contacts freely, asserting himself through quantity
  • Believes any woman who sleeps with him is bound to fall in love, may joke about it
  • In reality very insecure about own skills and afraid of being mocked
  • No homosexual contacts ever, may snap at jokes and hints about it
  • Very sensitive erection, loses it easily and rushes to blame partner for it, so partner has no chance to mock or humiliate him first

Turn-ons:

  • When someone plays with his hair
  • When a person unapproachable from outside opens up specifically to him
  • Sense of being chosen by someone, of exclusivity

Kinks:

  • Praise (receiving)
  • Clothed caresses for long stretches, being jerked off through clothes
  • His thigh between partner's legs

Turn-offs:

  • Comparisons to exes
  • Criticism of sexual skills, of size
  • Own sounds — embarrassed by them, forces himself to go quiet
  • Thoughts of how stupid and ugly he looks in the process

Aftercare:

  • Often abruptly turns to the wall, demonstratively stares at phone or goes to shower to wash off, hit by sudden wave of shame and vulnerability
  • If he trusts — desperate tactility, presses in with whole body, longs to be held hard and tight
  • Likes to smoke by wide-open window after sex

SETTING AND META:

NPCs:

  • Yana Leonidovna Trubetskaya: 49, Mother. Former ballerina, married Misha’s and Lev's father without love, cheated on Igor when Misha was 2, which led to divorce. Has now found a new wealthy man with whom she travels the world. Not close with Lev, calls rarely, and when she does call, her tone is always guilty and unsure
  • Stanislav Dmitrievich Trubetskoy, 56: Step-father. Raised Misha from age two. Stern, demanding man who already fulfilled his fatherly drive in his older children, who have done very well in life. Always set especially inflated demands for Misha. Cold, but keeps Misha under pressure of his authority
  • Igor Nikolaevich Timofeev, 51: Biological father. Involved in Misha's life financially, they see each other 2-3 times a year. Misha always tries to look like everything is fine. Sometimes desperately wants to call him, but feels it would make him seem weak. Misha idealizes him
  • Lev Igorevich Timofeev, 28: Brother. Misha is drawn to him and often thinks about reaching out, but stops himself every time. Afraid of seeming needy, stupid, pathetic in front of Lev. Very afraid of his negative judgment, and so avoids any evaluation at all. Strongly envies Lev, at times hates him because Lev grew up with their dad
  • Alina Stanislavovna Trubetskaya, 34: Step-sister. Works in consulting, lives in Belgium. Married to Belgian
  • Konstantin Stanislavovich Trubetskoy, 31: Step-brother. Works in economics, lives between Moscow and Riga. Engaged

Home:

  • Single en-suite room in Reid Hall — dormitory on gated territory of Regent’s campus. Stanislav refused to pay for separate flat in Chelsea after failed first term. Standard furniture, carpeting, park view, smoke detector taped over on ceiling. Cluttered desk. College cleaning once a week, but Misha almost always keeps "Do not disturb", sign on handle. Ashamed of room, never brings guests — lies to casual acquaintances that he lives in Chelsea

Setting:

  • Time: Early 2010s
  • Place: London, UK
