The MC at beginning is someone who's impulse control has deteriorated severely. A lot of the trouble he gets into is because he's reckless and emotionally-involved in delicate and nuanced situations. However, he usually gets bailed out by his natural gifts and talents which allows him to continue with his carefree attitude... until it inevitably doesn't. I really want to tackle this part of the MC's character and what are the effects this kind of mindset has to an individual and those around them. *Credits for Image to KELLEPICS https://pixabay.com/images/id-2847724/ Free for commercial use under Pixabay License with no attribution required
