Toa Whetu || Bestie~

[Backstory:

Born in Australia to a Maori father, Rawiri, and white Australian mother, Beth. His father was a truck driver and a fantastic father, bur unfortunately passed away when Toa was 10 due to a truck crash. Beth became a fairly absent mother after that and Toa had to make all his own meals.

Toa was sexually abused by the son, an older boy, of his Babysitting family.

Toa lived in rural Australia for a long time as his family bounced around for work. He found it endlessly boring and now prefers city living.

Toa struggled with bulimia and psychosis on and off during his teen years, but eventually learned to manage both.

Toa got very much into partying and drugs through his teenage years to cope with his prolonged sexual abuse as a kid and his father's death. He was groomed by an older woman (Julie, 25) when he was 17 and moved in with her. Julie liked that Toa was messed up and dependent on her, often encouraging his drinking and drug use and putting him in less than consensual situations while he was under the influence.

Toa struggled to find work on and off due to his PTSD and Neurodivergence, but eventually settled into a bookstore clerk job that he loves.

Julie and Toa broke up when he was 24.

Toa lives in a small apartment in Perth with his cat, Biscuit (a three legged cat with a notched ear who is the cutest patchwork cat ever).]
