Description

So I'm not too good on composition, but I don't feel like fiddling around with this anymore right now. XP >n< Feet, amirit?
Ugh. If I missed something, I'll get it later. I'm too tired. Oh, and his shirt btw says "Meat Is Murder. Tasty Flame-Broiled Delicious Murder", and I found it with a quick 'funny t-shirts' Google search, but it won't open the image for me to link it.

EDIT: Condensed this mess of an infodump a bit.

:bulletblue:--Basic Information--:bulletblue:

Other: Can 'stickify' his legs like all MTTs when in dragon form. Flesh and blood are yellow. Being an MTT, he can switch tail holograph on/off at will in either form; it makes light-saber-y sound when moving through the air.

Occupation: CEO of Salvation Clinics, doctor
Birthplace: Junction City, upper mid-level
Current residence: Junction City, mid-level, lives with Doe


:bulletyellow:--Traits--:bulletyellow:
Voice: www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3MQis… Ted Mosby, with different mannerisms: Mostly formal with a relaxed tone. Informality increases when speaking with someone he knows or is pissed at.
Eyes: Slightly brighter yellow than markings
Hair: Slightly darker blue than markings. Slicked back except for short curl on right of hairline. When not gelled it is medium length and very wavy.
Distinguishing features: Pronounced cheekbones and rounded nose
Body: Average, muscles only gently defined. Straight posture.
Habits: Slicking his hair back with his hand when nervous or stressed. Tends to blurt out whatever he's thinking when nervous/embarrassed, which isn't always comprehensive.

Typical clothing: Formal suits, informal is usually a variation without the jacket. Puts on doctor's coat when working regardless of dress. Completely casual wear consists of t-shirts and tanktops, boxers, sweatpants. Almost never wears shorts.

:bulletblue:--Personality--:bulletblue:
Likes: Getting ahead in business where it concerns his clinic, having the last say in an argument, helping people, Beer, ale, vodka mixes - it's probably safe to say any alcoholic drinks are his favorite. (he will not get drunk at or before work, as much as he'd like to).
Dislikes: Drug addicts (he asks others to treat those patients), clumsiness at work, thick-headed/bigoted people, messing his hair up, food going to waste, and most especially people calling him by his first name. He is embarrassed to the point even his business cards don't have it, and he introduces himself as Dr. Barclay. Only family and friends are allowed to call him Spoons.

General attitude: Dripping with sarcasm and comebacks, he isn't afraid to voice his opinion. Has the ability to be polite and respectful but doesn't always use it. Serious and cut-to-the-chase when doing his job. Underneath it he is quite passionate and rather silly, and although he doesn't possess the greatest social skills he is like a loyal, fluffy dog when shown genuine friendliness.
General intelligence: High. Can't really understand non-medical technology and is slow to realize when his car is broken.
General sociability: Low. Comes off as pushy and mean since he's usually more focused on tasks then socializing but underneath he is a big softie with an easily accessed silly side. Has a particularly hard time communicating when embarrassed or flustered, if he can even control his mouth.

:bulletblue:--History--:bulletblue:
Spoons was raised in the mid-levels of Junction city, so he was able to glimpse both the well-to-do and the struggling. He held a grudge against the upper classes for not using their wealth to help the suffering and helpless, particularly when it was so obvious.
He decided early on to pursue medicine; it seemed the best course of action to help the less fortunate. In order to help without taking advantage of them like so many others did, however, he would need to open his own practice. He became a bookworm and worked hard towards that goal. His parents could afford to send him to private school where he received top scores, even skipping a grade. He then went through an accelerated med school program for college.

In college Spoons met a few people he felt he could trust with his developing brainchild. While nearing the end of his education he scraped together enough money to rent a small space near the ground, which by the time he graduated was furbished into a cheap walk-in clinic staffed by some of his nurse and doctor friends as well as volunteers. Salvation Clinic boomed with business as humans and MTTs alike sought refuge from their sicknesses brought on by both their poor living conditions and the deteriorating state of the world. 

Spoons used the money he made to expand into other communities and now owns a small chain of a little more than half a dozen clinics in various cities, which he visits personally to keep up with them. He also goes to numerous talks and promotions in order to secure the generous donations that help keep them running. 
Though cheap and made for the poor, Spoons' clinics do take in anyone with an emergency (human or otherwise). Many times his is the closest medical facility, as well. All Salvation Clinics are built in the lower levels of cities, so if you can brave the lower levels you can be a patient.

:bulletyellow:--Relationships--:bulletyellow:
Parents: Strained relationship, limited contact. Calls them on holidays and visits once a year. They view him as wasting his skills.

Siblings: No blood siblings. His brother-in-law is kinda nice though (ha ha ha ha, oh Spoons, you poor bastard).

Family: 
:bulletorange: Meadow Tamperhill - wife - He met Doe when she was brought into the Junction City clinic due to injuries from Skyrunning, a unique sport she invented. Spoons inquired about it, and the two got to talking, as awkward as it was. He quickly became a lovesick puppy with cringe-y social skills, but somehow they made it into a relationship. She teases him a lot and puts up with his bull, so he couldn't ask for anyone better.
:bulletorange: Larkspur Barclay - son - Oldest, a little brat and is always teaming up with his mom against Spoons.
:bulletorange: Pan Barclay - daughter - Youngest, daddy's girl (thank goodness).

Friends:
:bulletblack: Fellow graduate and employer of DeLorean Fox, who works at the Salvation Clinic, Junction City branch. Often lectures him but trusts him the most.
:bulletblack: Friendly-creepy with Onyx Ide and Sniper Evans; is the self-proclaimed weirdo uncle of their son Simon.
:bulletblack: Boss of volunteer Vincent Dell'Antonio at Junction City branch. Likes making him squirm.
:bulletblack: Acquainted with Grisaille Dufour, the aunt of his wife. Views her as a sweet but tough old gal.
:bulletblack: Buddies with JuryRig after bonding during the patch up of a criminal. Will occasionally go out drinking when they both have the time.
:bulletblack: Frenemy-ship with Alex. Loves riling her up, especially with short jokes.
:bulletblack: Helped Serum find his car.
:bulletblack: Is a terrible doctor for Seven Keecers.
:bulletblack: Buddies with Droid Carbon. Shares many interests.
:bulletblack: Acquaintances with Royal Kensington, a fellow fancy man. 
:bulletblack: Casual drinking buddy and fellow grump to Reave Winters.
:bulletblack: Tries to be a helpful not-scary doctor for Moteka, as well as look out for her when he can.
:bulletblack: Boss of volunteer Fetch Walker as well as occasional drinking buddy.

:bulletblue:--Trivia--:bulletblue:
Spoons legitimately owns a Cupid outfit, complete with wings and loincloth. Doe taught him how to shoot a bow and arrow, and ever since he suggestively paired Onyx and Sniper he deemed himself "Dr. Cupid". Yes, he wears it most holidays and when he's drunk sometimes. Yes, he will shoot strangers. No, the arrows aren't real; they're suction cups. Doe doesn't let him outside in the outfit if she can help it.
-A workaholic.
-When he drinks, he drinks. Has a high tolerance.
-Has to use reading glasses.
-Gets between 4-6 hours of sleep and wakes early. Can sleep anywhere and in almost any position.
-Walks when the distance isn't too far and swims a lot during the summer but doesn't exercise much beyond that.
-Travels a lot for work, so he can be in Junction City anywhere from a couple of months to a couple of days.
-He isn't big on cleaning at home due to being too tired and unused to it.
-Thinks anything on a stick or that you can eat without utensils is brilliant.
- Big hobbies are skipping meetings, fully celebrating St. Patrick's Day, drinking, the occasional video game (he's horrible at them), and complaining
-He doesn't care about the integrity of being a doctor or morals or something like that when it comes to jerk patients; if you're being an ass, he'll be one too while treating you.
-Very protective of his fabulous hair
-Can ballroom dance pretty well.
-Listens to Neofolk, polka, orchestra, and soft rock. Occasionally jams out to pop and some of Suicidal Reject's songs, though he'd never admit it.
