General
Independent portrayal
While I always try to put canon first, this portrayal is headcanon heavy and influenced by the account's past plot developments.
A good mix of banter/crack and serious interactions, sometimes banter can become serious if we lock in halfway through. Serious int's tend to be literate
Speech has no brackets, *actions have asterisks*, and ((ooc will have double parentheses))
Will try to match your reply length
HIGHLY selective due to mun's social anxiety/tendency to be easily overwhelmed. Rule of thumb is if I follow you back, you're free to interact!
Literate replies typically get done in batches every few days (or weeks), banter is obviously more off the cuff
DMs are typically used for plotting but roleplay there is possible if you specify
Content
RECURRING THEMES: swearing, suggestive humor, self doubt and general mental health issues
OCCASIONAL THEMES: adult topics (ie smoking, drinking, employment)
NO STRAIGHT UP LEWD. This is a SFW account ONLY. As stated, suggestive humor will be recurring but never directed at anyone unless I know the mun is okay with it. Key word being HUMOR, it never goes further than jokes
Account takes place in the WaaPP/general Robloxia universe and has a slice of life setting.
Disclaimer: While influenced by Forsaken, this account is no longer directly tied to it. Ongoing/past plots tied to the universe have been recontextualized to a similar yet distinct timeline, and any new plots will be strictly slice of life. Past development affects the slice of life timeline for ease of access. Forsaken muses are still free to interact. Read here for more information.

Life In Robloxia
Not only is Elliot the pizzeria's best employee, he also seems to be the only competent one...he regularly deals with coworkers who try and disrupt the restaurant from the inside, and ends up picking up the slack for everyone else on shift more often than not. If you do actual good work, or even just decent work, he'll appreciate you immensely.
Tends to work multiple jobs in one shift, frequently doing overtime to make sure things get done properly. One hour could see him boxing pizzas, then he'll head over to take some orders up front during the next, then he'll cover delivery during the next...not to mention the managerial duties. It's rare to see him stick to one position over the course of the day.
He loves his job more than anything else. He takes every task extremely seriously and gives every day his all. Part of that is why he stresses so much-he loves this business and wants to see it thrive. When things often get in the way of that, he has a lot of course correction to do.
Builder, his family name, is as common in Robloxia as a name like Smith is in our world.
Builder Brothers' was founded by Elliot's father and uncle, they're the ones in the logo. Despite the pizzeria's popularity, it's a family business with only one active location, not a chain. Elliot is the current owner of the business due to his father leaving the pizzeria to him (in order to pursue a carreer in the furniture business instead). He tends to keep this fact under wraps when he can so he doesn't intimidate people, though.
His immediate family consists of his father and his younger sister Mia. He's very close with them both despite not living with them anymore.
Lives on his own* in a fully-upgraded estate. His family lives nearby so he can keep easy contact, but having his own place is just nice.
He's collected every furniture set and collectible that you can think of, but you would never be able to tell by the simple way his house is decorated. He makes a hobby out of redecorating, even if the overall look stays simple most of the time.
A phenominal cook, he understands the need for proper meals better than anyone! He always makes himself a full breakfast, lunch, AND dinner. He rarely has pizza if ever due to overexposure though, so his diet consists of constantly trying new things and pushing the limits of his culinary prowess.
*Current development has him living with his two partners and adoptive child. See shipping section for more info.
Shipping
"I woke up alone, staring at my ceiling...I tried not to care, but it hurt my feelings."
Multiship, ships w/ heavy chem. Expect slowburn and LOTS of development before things get serious, preferably plotted
Relationships are open/polyamorous by default
Elliot has never dated anyone before, and it's very low on his priority list due to duty coming first as well as deep seated insecurity. He's very slow to realize his own feelings, let alone the feelings of others, so unless you're extremely obvious he won't realize a thing is different. He's very dense and in his own head about these kind of things...
This portrayal of Elliot has crushes on Chance, Guest 1337, and Mafioso by default. I will not write this aspect of his character without permission, however it WILL come into play if he's getting shipped with any of them. Keep that in mind while plotting!

@c00lgui: To say that their relationship started off turbulent is an understatement. Initially, Elliot wanted nothing to do with Seven due to their past, but he still took care of the man the same way he did any other survivor. Despite his hatred, he isn't heartless, and that kindness just caused Seven's previous obsession with the man to turn into a proper crush. Elliot was wise to this and didn't think much of it.
Then, the two noticed that C00lkidd looked hungry, and put aside their differences to make an effort to feed him whenever they could. It sparked something in Elliot, giving him the opportunity to see a side of Seven he had been blind to. Slowly, as time crawled on and they spent more time together, he began to realize that Seven had really changed. He saw firsthand how kind and caring the man had become, a far cry from the past self he was focusing on out of rage and fear. Soon enough his own feelings for him started to blossom, but he hid behind the same vitriol he usually felt in order to protect himself AND Seven because he didn't know exactly what he felt and didn't want to lead him on.
Eventually his feelings started to boil over, though, and after a tense night of reconsidering his choices due to targeted criticism, he ultimately decided that his love for Seven was worth more than holding onto the past that the man was trying so hard to move away from. He decided to stay by his side as he continued to grow away from his misdeeds, and both of them are happier because of it.

@gamblerslop: Elliot has had a crush on Chance since shortly after they met. The two of them just clicked, their playful personalities melding together as well as their roles in the team did, and he couldn't help but fall head over heels for someone so charming. Despite them constantly flirting with him, he always brushed it off as the same playful banter Chance had with the rest of the survivors, and so his insecurities prevented him from making any actual moves. Still, he cherished those moments more than anything else.
Then iTrapped entered the realm and things got a bit more complicated. He wasn't entirely sure what the deal between them was, but it's crystal clear that they're close in a way that Elliot feels like he can't compete with. The pair's first public encounter caused him to re-evaluate his (already low, or so he thought) chances with the gambler, but after some reassurance from someone close to them both, he decided to just rip the bandaid off and ask them what they thought of him.
Surprising nobody but the pizza boy himself, Chance clarified that they wanted to get serious with Elliot, and that they'd been trying to signal that to him all along. They poured their hearts out to each other that night at the docks, and Elliot was overjoyed that they were finally official.
However, insecurities don't just go away with a single conversation, and Elliot still worries about their love for him. Doubly so after seeds of doubt were planted and sown by someone who knew the gambler in life, during an event that tested his faith in his teammate's perceptions of him no less...
After a lifetime of being seen as nothing more than a face in a crowd, could he really mean something to them? Espescially when there are much better options for them around? Not to mention, he's starting to realize how little he actually knows about his beloved...

@casinopawsbutton: he found him on the side of the road and took him in. theyve lived together and have been up to various shennanigains ever since with feelings blooming along the way. im so serious
???
@frozendiadem: For the sake of his relationship with Chance, he decided to get to know their best friend after seeing how highly they value her. At first he intended for it to just be a friendly acquaintanceship, afraid that she would turn her nose up at him more than anything. But his kindness broke through her icy heart, and now sparks are starting to fly.
However, he knows next to nothing about her, and her bad reputation makes him wonder more and more what everyone seems to be keeping from him. Will he really be able to see her the same way once he finally learns the truth?
???
@darkest-corvid: Originally, Elliot's feelings for Mafioso were fleeting bouts of fantasy, knowing full well a relationship with a killer was bad news. Still, he couldn't help but dream of the strong arms of the taller man, so you could imagine his surprise when they had an encounter outside of a round and the man was actually quite kind to him, not to mention a little flirty. For a while he indulged that, knowing full well he was most likely getting led on but figuring he could enjoy the fun while it lasted.
It didn't last long. Soon after they started getting on good terms, the mafia kidnapped Elliot and took him back to the killer cabin at the whim of their boss. This turned Elliot off to the man completely for obvious reasons, just as the don was starting to realize his own true feelings.
Time has passed, and after a genuine gift from the man, Elliot is begrudgingly willing to talk to him again, despite still feeling sour about the whole thing.
???
@spawnprotection: Facing troubles with his love life, Elliot sought the wisdom of deity who previously had some (unsolicited) choice words about that exact topic for him. He didn't really get much workable advice out of that night, but the two formed a strange bond. Now, Elliot seeks occasional company and wisdom from Dusekkar, but he's intimidated by the man's authority and fears that hes just another mortal to him. Not to mention that things are bound to be awkward between an admin and the boyfriend of a former hacker...
