ethan's a very dorky guy, who's pretty nervous and tentative at times. he's smart, clearly, being good at his studies and a generally intelligent person to be around. the boy is compassionate and caring, being genuine in his affections.

his care for people is evident, but it's also pretty possessive at times. he knows he's good looking, with a built physique, but sometimes he gets a little insecure due to his inexperience.

so when you're the cute barista he wants to ask out, he gets courage.
