🪐 — @hargrovetm sent a hc meme : HC + gio !
● giovanni’s maternal grandparents were anti-fascists who participated in direct coordinated actions against benito mussolini in the early 1940s, involving sabotaging supply lines & helping to print & distribute anti-fascist press. when he was a child, it was his grandfather who introduced gio to radical politics, & imbued him with his strong values of justice, equality, & freedom. other than his guitar, the stack of old pamphlets & resistance fliers that his grandfather gave him are gio’s most treasured possessions. ● in large part because of his strong values, gio hates bullies. at 6′5, gio is almost always the tallest person in the room, & while he doesn’t like to fight, he is not above using his size to frighten bullies into leaving more vulnerable people alone. his close friendship with brian walker is a classic example of this. ● gio’s family couldn’t afford to travel back & forth between italy & the united states very often, but they did save up enough to take one trip to visit his familial home when he was thirteen years old & his younger brother, damiano, was seven. they got to meet the extended di carlo family, & this trip is one of the best memories of gio’s life. ● gio is an incredibly hard worker & surprisingly good at saving up money for things he really wants. he worked three jobs at a time when he was fifteen years old & trying to save up for a guitar. his first guitar was a secondhand lime green kramer focus. his second guitar was a white fender super strat. his dream guitar is a cherry red les paul. ● gio’s Type is goths. the more goth the better. & this isn’t to say that he’s not capable of finding people of other styles attractive, because he definitely is, & he can also sometimes be surprised at who he’s attracted to. but as a rule, he tends to gravitate toward goths. he thinks the fact that they’re different & a little freaky is just the hottest thing.
