drown: nell (搞什麽鬼)
There's still Reddit (or a permutation/evolution/bastard great great grandchild version of it) in the dystopian future, only Chuck refuses to go on it because r/aww and the front page is riddled with cats. Chuck's hometown is New Berlin (settlement on the moon) and came down to earth when he was 4 and bounced around the globe with his parents, leaving him pretty shy as he never stuck around in one place for too long to make too many lasting friendships. He's technically attending boarding school down in Chicago, though he already graduated and as a result is just in MC to pass the time. He keeps his J-1 visa on his person at all times and if worst comes to worst and he gets captured by Kane, he'll just rip it up and demand to be deported. (Mike thinks that's pretty stupid, but he never says it out loud.)

Texas has about 5 older sisters and a younger brother and about another 12 or so girl cousins, and his closest Ate, Ginger, is an even bigger martial arts nut than he is, though she's traveling around as a professional MMA fighter and he rarely sees her nowadays. Sisters are named after spices while his younger brother is named after another place with a rich cowboy history, Calgary. He was also born in Singapore, but has been in the US long enough to become a citizen. His stomach is basically solid titanium and he FUCKING LOVES FOOD, which is why he can withstand almost anything Jacob throws at him. Favorite dish is satay beehoon.

Mike's father used to be part of the US military, stationed overseas and rarely able to come home. Mike loves him dearly though and wants to emulate him in every way, leading him to skip secondary school and joining Kane's ranks and quickly moving up the ladder. His grandmother who raised him opposed it, not wanting him to turn into her oft-unavailable son, but she supported him through the basic training and the rest.
