A/N: This is just a bit of a descriptive piece about Bengal that I did for a writing exercise. I did Bengal because a) he rocks and b) he is one of the only characters I have pictured perfectly in my head and c) he has very distinct features. He is also pretty. Please review; tell me what you think, blah blah blah blah blah.

Bengal: A Descriptive Piece

Bengal flipped his mid-back length florescent orange hair over his shoulder. It was as straight as if he had used a flattening iron, and at his part his dark sable roots, naturally streaked with caramel and burnt sienna, had begun to show. The ends were choppy and badly split, as he had not had a haircut in his entire life.

Intense, slightly slanted almond shaped eyes peered from under a lock of hair. They were almost like cat’s eyes, sly, lonesome and harsh all at the same time, and the exact color of liquid honey. Over the slightly slit-pupiled and rather too large eyes were sculpted eyebrows, mirroring the color of his roots. They were also slightly slanted. His eyes were decorated with many layers of liner and mascara, enhancing their euphoric and hypnotic quality.

High cheekbones were accented by a complexion that could only be described as bronze, which was abnormally dark for a Spaniard. Full, sensuous lips covered teeth that were mostly straight but not particularly white. An abused child often does not learn about dental hygiene until later in life. A golden tongue stud was concealed behind, just another indicator of his occupation.

His lithe, but starved body was exposed by very revealing clothing. Slim shoulders, bony chest, flat stomach, and anorexically slender arms were covered only in a tight black fishnet shirt with three-quarter length sleeves. Long chipped fingernails were painted orange to match his dyed hair, and he wore no jewelry or other adornments for ease of undressing.

Baggy black jeans were slung low around his thin waist, held up by a studded black belt. If they were to be removed, however, both his habit to not bother with underwear and the fact that he shaved his entire body would be revealed. Both of these things confirmed him as what he was: a prostitute. Simple black skate shoes were on his feet, untied, confirming another thing: he was not working that day.

Had he been working, the pants he wore would be much tighter, and no belt would be necessary. He would also be wearing high-heeled boots, and much more makeup. No, he was definitely done work for that day. But tomorrow? That was another story.

A/N: Oh my. I do believe I just wrote 375 words of pure Bengal description! I have always wanted to do that though. And by the way, when I said his tongue piercing was a hint he was a hooker, I didn’t mean that I think that if you have a tongue piercing you’re a hooker, I meant hookers are more likely to have their tongues pierced.
