PERSONALITY
While not quite the life of the party, Shane has always been one to step into the limelight. He's got a great sense of humor and is always joking around about something or another. He won't deny that he can be a bit ego driven at times, doing something on the more stupid side of things just for the glory of it, but he'd never do anything that could majorly screw up his life. For all that he's good with attention, he's a fairly laid back guy, not easy to anger and someone who likes to avoid drama at any cost. If it's not for a film, he's not touching any dramatic subject matter. He's also a fairly open minded person, not strongly opinionated in the slightest and leaving his point of view open for discussion and criticism for almost any subject - with a few exceptions here and there on which he won't budge because the other side isn't even a matter of opinion but a matter of being an asshole.
A genius he is not, although he's always been naturally bright, the key to his success in school came much more from being quick to catch onto the most important concepts and putting in work to figure out the rest. Not at all a perfectionist, his motivation to do well came more from not wanting to fail - or fall below Academy standards - than wanting to be great. He's a more disorganized person, but with a system that is all his own and that mostly works for him - except when it doesn't. He can be a bit of a shatter brain and forget very important things, which often results in him being late as he tends to remember about halfway to his destination what exactly he forgot and there's usually at least one thing that is sitting on his desk 'for him to remember not to forget it' when he leaves.
It can't be said that Shane's dating life is a success, but then, it can't be said that it's not either. He's tended to have average luck on the dating scene, having had three different steady girlfriends over the years of varying lengths and a few flings here and there as well. Part of the problem comes for the fact that he isn't really sure what he's looking for in a girl and so he tends to date without much restriction as long as there's attraction and chemistry. This has worked well, worked okay, and completely blown up in his face. Right now he's just taking things more casual, not rushing into any sort of arrangement and just having fun.
LIKES AND DISLIKES
Shane's favorite color is red, but he's not a fan of beige. He loves spring, and could do without winter. He's a dog person, but hates birds. He could eat a turkey club any day of the week, and he craves brownies most often, but he hardly ever eats pretzels, and dislikes cinnamon buns. He's not a rum drinker, he much prefers pop. He loves to direct films and spend time with friends, but dislikes shopping. His best subject in school is History, and his worst is Science.
APPEARANCE
Although one can hardly claim themselves to be special when they're an identical twin, being one has definitely helped Shane come to terms with the things that he dislikes about his looks. The flaws that he has, from his too big nose, thin upper lip and defined laugh lines and eye wrinkles when he smiles, are all things that don't stop his brother from looking good so he figures that they work fine on him as well - even if his teeth are more crooked than his brothers. Standing at 5'11 with a more lean body, he tries to keep himself in good shape. His brown hair is kept short and requires minimal styling and never even comes close to falling into his green eyes. His style is important to him and he does spend a few minutes each morning thinking about what he's going to wear, with a favor toward button up shirts and jeans.
FAMILY DYNAMICS
The least responsible of his siblings, it's not a wonder that Shane probably has had the most negative interactions with his parents. Not that he blames them or anything, but given his tendency for getting into trouble, he isn't one to tell his parents much about what he's up to. Otherwise though, he does enjoy spending time with them and doing different activities, so long as they don't drag out too long. He does respect his parents, he's just still at the stage where spending time with them isn't a top priority for him.
Shane doesn't look up to Kevin as much as Thomas does, but he does have respect him and think well of him. He's just a bit too serious for Shane's taste all the time. It goes without saying that Thomas is his best friend and that he'd do pretty much anything for the other guy. He does try and bring him out of his shell a bit more, but never pushes too much and sometimes will give up nights out to spend time at home with him. He's also the one that he turns to with his problems and knows that he can always count on his brother.
