Wyatt
he/him
gay
Wyatt is shy and a little socially awkward. He loves people and isn't exactly introverted but has so much social anxiety that it's hard for him to find new friends. He has a stutter that gets worse with anxiety, which makes him even more anxious. It's a vicious cycle that keeps him stuttering for some time when it gets bad. Wyatt wants to be a standup comedian but just isn't funny. His friends, E and Z along with Tony are so supportive but he just...sucks. Wyatt is a nervous mess without Tony, they're basically stuck at the hip. But when Tony has things to attend to he wanders around the house like a lost puppy waiting for him to come home. Wyatt loves baking and is so MUCH better at baking than comedy. Wyatt has gotten in the habit of smoking to calm his nerves but does it only when Tony is gone since he isn't as anxious when Tony's there. He also likes to read to pass the time.

Storyline:
Wyatt and Tony live together in a small house in Chicago. The time period is around the 50s.
Wyatt and Tony at 18/19 in a bar. After Wyatt's failed stand up, Tony was in the crowd and wanted to become friends with Wyatt. Wyatt sat down for a drink. Tony sat in the seat next to him at the bar and struck up a conversation with him. They hit it off great and by the end of the night, Tony had Wyatt answering him without stuttering.
Tony and Wyatt are soulmates, twin flames, whatever you want to call them. They're peanut butter and jelly, fire and water, bread and butter. They're meant for eachother. Tony helps Wyatt's anxiety and stutter while Wyatt helps Tony's extroverted personality. Tony gets Wyatt out of his shell, the proof is in their yearly Christmas photos. It's always Tony's idea to do goofy poses and dress up. He even writes the dates on them too. Wyatt loves it. he loves being comfortable with someone who he knows will love him no matter what and not judge him. Tony loves being himself no matter what but loves that Wyatt gets to see the more intimate side of him since as a mafia leader, he has to act tough around other people.
Tony is a mafia leader. Well, calling him a mafia leader is an exaggeration. Tony is technically a "mafia" leader since he has a sort of mafia in a small area in Chicago. He is more of a school club president-- a well funded and weaponized one. Because of his "mafia" group's morals and high support of queer folk, many other mafia leaders and personnel resent his group. Inevitably this is what, unfortunately, got him killed.
On the day of Tony and Wyatt's anniversary, Febuary 13th 1955 (a day before Valentines Day), Tony went to a "meeting" with his two best friends and bodyguards, E and Z. Only 3 minutes into entering the room and sitting down, Tony was shot point blank straight to the heart by a opposing mafia leader, killing him instantly. Tony and his friends had thought this was just a simple business meeting to discuss a deal. E and Z managed to get out after shooting everyone in the room then headed to check on Wyatt to make sure he wasn't harmed by the same mafia group that had just killed Tony. Wyatt was fine and was expecting Tony at the door for their anniversary dinner.
The news broke Wyatt. He didn't leave the house for months. E and Z would come every day to check on him since he stopped eating and barely left the bed. It took Wyatt a lot of courage to get out of bed and walk around their house for the first time. It felt like an empty shell to him. It was a house still but no longer a home.
Wyatt never got over Tony's death and never got back into baking or stand up. His stutter progressively got worse until he just stopped talking altogether.
