BIOGRAPHY Bryne Griffin was notorious as a Carlingford drunkard. Brawling and slurring through his threats was what the man was known for. That, and his parent's wealth and status in the city. Nora Coleman, Nathaniel's mother, was known for her promiscuity. Much like Nathaniel, being bored was an inconceivable state, and well, when Byrne wasn't drinking he could be quite dull. Their relationship didn't last long. Byrne may have been a drunk, but he was a proud Irish man, and one who obeyed his mother when she told him he deserved better than Nora.Nora and her children were the source of plenty of gossip in town. But the proof was visible: the children were a ragtag band of mismatched genes, with Nathaniel Griffin, Byrne's flesh-and-blood and the oldest of the brood, as their leader and protector. He would have done anything for those siblings of his, a fact that surprised those who knew Nathaniel as a logical, unattached individual who couldn't be bothered to care about anything he didn't read in a book. Nathaniel needn't have bothered with his mother's "illegitimate" children- his was a name that held clout in Ireland as respectable people. None of his siblings could say the same. He was sent to a proper school outside of Carlingford, and was to spend holidays with the rest of the Griffin family (a responsibility his father abstained from by age sixteen) along with weekly Sunday dinners after church. Church was the one time Nathaniel's two worlds felt like they were colliding, when his mother's children- his siblings- and his grandparents were forced to interact with one another. For the most part the two groups acted like the other didn't exist, but on Sundays, under the watchful gaze of Father Calhoun, the elder Griffins dared not let their superiority show. It wouldn't be the last time the worlds met. The next time Nathaniel set his two worlds on a collision course he was eighteen, having just graduated school when he proposed to his grandparents that they let him live in the Griffin family vacation home in Florida while he attended a U.S. university. There was more potential at a U.S. university, but his true motive was encouraging his closest-in-age sibling to pursue their passion for making a profession of acting. By now he was fairly certain it was move to America, or let his sibling drop out. Either way, his grandparents agreed, but they moved to the vacation home with the two young adults. Not exactly what Nathaniel had in mind. Plans of being free and uninhibited went right out the window before they stepped foot off Irish soil. Regardless, he applied and was accepted to the university so he decided grandparents or not, he was staying in America. |
