appearance: erin mommsen - a bit skinny but is tall at a height of 6'ft 1; has dark brown hair and blue-green eyes; can be seen typically as presenting more androgynous than "masculine"

personality: charismatic and positive, Malakai is the person to be there for you; he loves having fun and trying new things, even if they're a bit nerve-wracking and it draws people towards him; extroverted; definitely can be a bit of a people pleaser although he tries not to be (sometimes its hard for him to say no); energetic and bold, he's been taught to be himself his whole life and isn't afraid to be- whether its showing up to school with his makeup done or going out with friends in heels and a suit, he's not afraid to be who he is and wear what he wants! clothes have no gender after all

likes: painting; trying new things/exploring; blaring music as he makes art; queer-ing it up and being himself; getting drunk/high on occasion with friends; making things for people and receiving or giving small gifts; all animals - he tried being vegetarian once but his body didn't like it; especially likes dogs and rabbits

dislikes: seeing people giving up; being a people pleaser; people who know what to do to take advantage of him (COUGH- his boyfriend- COUGH-) absolutely hates- no, LOATHES PEOPLE THAT THINK HE'S A MINOR, I'M 22 YEARS OLD- I'M NOT A BABY, HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT- *ahem* Yeah he hates getting mistaken for being younger than he is but it happens a lot; Dylan

family, friends, relationships:

biological mother - Amie Meijer Hayes Bradshaw: changed her last name after remarrying both times; very sweet and gentle, a bit of a people pleaser herself, rather quiet but loves being loud with Makalai; where Makalai gets his german from; professional photographer and teaches photography part time during the summer (she/her)

step mother - Stephanie Morales Bradshaw: married Malakai's mom five years ago; baker; loves making food for anyone and totally will and even more so loves to teach people how to cook; currently 4 months pregnant (she/they)

biological dad - Byron Hayes: the "mom" of the dads more or less; has been super supportive of Malakai and honestly would be supportive of a stranger if they told him their hopes/dreams too; the American half of Malakai; had met Amie when studying abroad in college; an art teacher and loves kids (he/him)

step dad - Keir Fritz Hayes: married Byron not long after his divorce with Amie; music teacher for high schoolers apart of the same district as Byron; definitely the parent that Malakai goes to spill gossip and secrets with cause (so long as it isn't life threatening of course) he won't tell a soul and Kai knows that (he/him)

current boyfriend - Dylan Shaw: him and Malakai met at college and started dating when Kai was 20- a bit over 1 and year ago; Kai sometimes is physically uncomfortable with Dylan which does hint at him to break up with the dude already, but he feels like he won't find anyone else if he leaves him or that Dylan might blackmail him if he does so he deals with the guy; Dylan had already met his soulmate but he had been a bit awful with him and they had broken up a year before he met Kai (he/him)

Dizzy - the large german Shepard that his moms have; given to them by Malakai as a first anniversary present since he was going to college and wanted to "give them the children raising experience" even if he was leaving; yes the dog uses they/them pronouns

important/extra info:

Malakai is going to an art school studying studio art with a focus on painting; Amie and Byron's divorce happened when Malakai was 4 1/2 years old- it was mutual between both parties cause they realized that while they cared for each other, they both had taken a long time to realize neither were straight lmao just deep in the closet; Kai low-key is terrified that he'll never meet his soulmate and so he sticks with Dylan because of this aNd gaslighting, guilt tripping, manipulative sh!t that he does to Kai that's made him feel like he has to stay with Dylan; oh and Dylan is most definitely seeing his soulmate on the side of his relationship with Kai but unfortunately he's totally unaware of this

position: switch; sometimes depends on mood but otherwise has no preference- definitely nOt a virgin

turn ons: blindfolding / bondage / being told what to do / praise (doesnt matter if topping or bottoming) / breath play (whispering; breathing on skin etc)/ aggressiveness / chains leashes and leather ((oop-))

turn offs: lots of begging / seggs when high (too trippy, makes him feel too disconnected) / using the petname 'kitten' (both bottom or top- not the best memories with it)/ urine or scat / bad smells
