trivia:
1.) gabriel is very open about being bisexual...the issue is he is not bisexual! (don't tell him he doesn't know)
2.) is not posh in the slightest. refuses to speak correctly despite the fact that he was not raised around people who didn't (won't use table manners, etc. he is a little rebel)
3.) he feels guilty because he thinks he ruined chamai's life (chamai loves this boy he just doesn't know how to communicate that)
4.) takes a lot of personality inspo from joaquín thats his bestfriend fr
5.) is very invested in learning tagalog from a young age, call him a mamas boy he doesnt gaf bcuz he IS!!
6.) always wanted a little sibling but couldnt have one (obvious reasons) so he does in fact play older brother for anyone at the academy
7.) he has NO CLUE what he wants to do later in life. (mostly because he's spent his entire life being good at things just to hear chamai say he did well)
8.) played quidditch for like 2 years and decided he didn't want to anymore (devastation rained because he was good at it)
9.) cebalrai calls him heracles unless they're having a serious conversation and gabriel has never thought to ask why
10.) he HATES when people call him herc, says his name is not hercules its HERACLES so the nickname doesn't even make sense
11.) the comphet is comphetting! (he can't imagine ever being married to a woman but will not date guys despite telling everyone he's bisexual...someone get him a therapist)
12.) he tries to set cebalrai up with a ton of different girls when he's younger (literal 4 y/o wingman)
13.) he likes producing music (making beats) but is not a big lyricist, has a lil hobby where he makes beats for cebalrai and gets his input on it
14.) knows a good amount of spanish just bcuz of joaquín
15.) is genuinely very smart he just can't be bothered to overachieve, gets a's to make este & chamai happy and does nothing past that
16.) has a problem where he rips all the skin off of his lips & picks at his arms when he gets anxious but he will NOT bite his nails he takes pride in that
