"Don't patronize, I realize,
I'm losing and this is my real life.
I'm half asleep, and I am wide awake,
this habit is always so hard to break.
I don't want to be the bad guy,
been blaming myself and I think you know why.
I'm killing time, and time's killing you,
every way that I do."

General Looks//James Michael Wiley is fairly scrawny at 5'9" and only 134 pounds. He knows that he's small and considers it a weakness, as he knows he'd never be able to win a fight. Adding onto his lankiness, he's also extremely pale, giving him a somewhat ghastly look.
He has close set, dark brown eyes that are usually rimmed with a thick, raccoon-eye amount of eyeliner, adding onto his already dark appearance. Not only that, but he's a natural brunette who dies his hair black. If he didn't spike it/wildly tease it in the back, it would hang down to about his shoulders, in the front, he has long bangs on either side of his face and shorter bangs that dangle just over his eyes.
He has light pink lips that are decorated with black hoop snakebites, above his lips he has a fairly feminine-looking nose with a silver septum piercing. Adding on to his body modifications, he also has a tattoo on his upper back of feathered wings and the word "experiment" tattooed in cursive just under his belly button.
What's in the heart is all that matters.

General Personality//On the outside, James seems fairly happy, other than his gloomy appearance. He sleeps around, has his fair share of friends, he talks a lot, and he has no trouble at all getting boyfriends or girlfriends, life seems to be going good for him. Of course, then there's the sad truth.
James is actually on medications for anxiety, bi-polar, and severe depression. He's always worried that everyone thinks he's worthless because he grew up in a household where he was treated terribly. He has a terribly low self-esteem to the point where he's become bulimic, but he lies about his life and acts as if nothing is wrong. He jokes around, chills out with his friends, pretends that his home life is perfect, and the only clues that his life isn't perfect is the random bruises and cuts he'll get and the lame excuses he uses to cover up the truth of what really happened.

History//James Wiley was born and raised in Chicago, where he lived until he was 14 when his father got a promotion and James and his family had to move to Manhattan in order for his father to keep the job. James had led a good life in Chicago, he was happy and worry-free, but once they moved, that's when his parents started drinking and his mother became a junkie. That's when they started calling him "trash", telling him that all he is was a "mistake", an "accident". That's when they started beating him. His life just spiraled downhill from there. He became bulimic and started cutting.
When his parents weren't drunk and his mom wasn't high, they acted as if nothing had even happened and decided to take James to a therapist and a psychiatrist because they said he seemed "troubled". Before he turned 15, he was diagnosed with bi-polar and severe depression. To top it all off, once the school year started, he started having school anxiety and panic attacks, that's when he was diagnosed with anxiety as well. He attempted to overdose on his anxiety medications twice in one year, because of his time in the hospital and in the psyche ward because of his suicide attempts, he missed nearly two months of school. When he got back from his second time at the hospital/psyche ward, he started to dress differently; darker, and he began to wear make-up. He also started sleeping around with boys, girls, transgenders, whoever, just in order to feel worth something and get momentary satisfaction, before long, he became addicted to meaningless flings and one-night stands. His parents became so embarrassed of him, they decided to send him to a boarding school for Grade 10.
