Chronic “trouble maker” and “uncoachable” behavior, but is really a huge softie. Bird enthusiast. Exaggerates a Swedish accent when talking to media, but actually talks like any other norcal guy. > Dad’s side is from Palestine originally. His parents (Melker’s grandparents) fled to France and adopted the surname St. Martin to assimilate. Mom is Lebanese and has lived in Gothenburg her whole life. Her parents moved to Sweden for similar reasons. > Melker is ethnically ambiguous (can pass as “Mediteranean”) and has similar struggles with race as Dougie and Hans. His parents refused to teach him Arabic and has a very “diaspora kid” kind of racial identity where he ends up not quite belonging to the “regular Swedes” or the “immigrants”. > Played for Sweden for international juniors but hated it. Bonds with Matti over it, as they both are definitely not white-passing in the context of other Swedes, but are assumed to be white when they’re in the USA. Threw away his silver medal and caused a ruckus over it in Swedish media. > Also had a thing with Hans, but never viewed them more as a friend. Was the most casual with it out of the 3 boyfriends. Used to tease Jakey and Dougie all the time for falling in deep with them. > Kept in touch with Hans over their hiatus, knowing that Jakey kind of… fled. Has a on/off thing with Dougie and they live in neighboring apartments. Casual with Dougie, but maybe catching feelings for him. (He and Dougie end up marrying for retirement benefits after Hans and Jakey get back together and have a corny wedding post-TTT. They all definitely still fuck around though) > Knows for a fact he’s not Akari’s dad (since he’s never had sex with Hans like that), but isn’t sure if she’s Jakey’s or Dougie’s. Not like it matters, anyways. Melker and Dougie babysit her once in a while, when Sixby and her partner is too busy. Kinda has beef with Jakey for believing Hans was dead. ## Relationships > [!kith|relationship] **[[]]** _Relationship_ > “Quote about them goes here.” > [!kith|family] **[[]]** _Family_ > “Quote about them goes here.” > [!kith|friend] **[[]]** _Friend_ > “Quote about them goes here.” > [!kith|antagonist] **[[]]** _Former ???_ > “Quote about them goes here.” > [!kith|romantic] **[[]]** _Friend?_ > “Quote about them goes here.”
