Where Are They Now?

It's been ten years since the near-disastrous events in Haling Cove. Apart from a few scattered rift openings throughout the 2019-2020 school year, all has gone quiet in the quaint New England town and the school has become just another school. And so, life goes on...
Name:
Age:
Occupation: What's their job?
Residence: Where do they live?
Personal life: Are they married? Dating? Enjoying the single life? Do they already have kids?
If they weren't seniors, did they finish high school at Finchwood? If not, where did they go to school? What was it like?
After graduation: What did they find themselves doing? Did they jump right into their career? Did they have any encounters with the Shadow World since leaving Haling Cove?
Now as an adult: What are they up to? How did they get here?
Are they happy?: The answer had better be yes.
Did they ever try to talk to anyone about what happened in Haling Cove?: Lenore warned against sharing too readily because fear and mass hysteria only strengthens Shadows, but without the contract they can technically talk about what happened. Getting people to believe them and to remember any evidence they're shown, though, might be a challenge.
Anything else?:
A cute gif: Optional. You can find a gif of them all grown up, or just as they are!

From: [personal profile] adamho
Name: Adam Il-sung Ho
Age: Twenty-eight
Occupation: Research & Development Lead at Imugi Technologies
Residence: San Francisco, California
Personal life: Adam's habit of complicated, volatile relationships didn't end when he left Finchwood Academy. He dated a fiercely intelligent but fiercely competitive girl throughout much of his time in undergrad, married her when he was twenty-two (even though all of his friends told him not to), and divorced her when he was twenty-three. Because they just fought...all the time. He then proclaimed his intention to stay single but went on to date and break up with a number of other girls. It just never seems to work out. But who cares, anyway? He doesn't care. This is fine. And he definitely never gets drunk with Scout and tells him that he envies what he has with Flint or anything like that.
If they weren't seniors, did they finish high school at Finchwood? N/A
After graduation: Immediately after graduation, Adam dragged all of the Senior Swords on a trip to South Korea (thanks for your help with that passport, Pearl!) and it was great. You're welcome. After that, he headed to school at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he studied Mathematics and Computer Science during his undergraduate years and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science during his doctoral years. In total, it was about nine years of additional schooling and he excelled there. He didn't spend all nine of those years in a classroom, though, as he returned home every summer to work in his father's company alongside his brothers and completed an internship there with a research and development branch. So, while his social life was a garbage fire, his academic life was quite accomplished. After completing his studies, he returned to California for good to take his place in the family business.

While he hasn't had the time to go looking for Shadows, he's been keeping his eyes open and told the Velvet Room denizens to do the same and keep him on speed dial. Fighting Shadows gave his life very clear purpose once and he wouldn't ever turn down the option of revisiting that. I think it's safe to say he's had a few adventures here and there over the years.
Now as an adult: Adam works for his father's company, Imugi Technologies, in a lead research and development role. While he's not fit to be the face of the company or deal with people directly, he's certainly got a lot of influence, a lot of access, and a lot of power there. He does well in this position and only very occasionally bickers with Isaac.

While Minnie has since passed away (Rest In Peace angel doggo), he now has two young doggos that he's training and that he would kill for.
Are they happy?: Sometimes. Adam still has anger problems and his failure with relationships often leaves him feeling frustrated and lonely, but he's accomplished and he enjoys his work and his life is fulfilling in those regards. He could definitely be happier and he's trying to get there, but he doesn't really know how. Check back in with him in another ten years.
Did they ever try to talk to anyone about what happened in Haling Cove?: Yes. Adam has come clean about almost everything to his brothers, finding support in Ethan and an unexpected ally in Isaac. As control of the company is gradually shifting to the three brothers, there's been quiet discussion of a side project within the company to start developing anti-Shadow weapons (à la Persona 3). They've even hired Mr. Moreno in preparation for this. As far as Adam's concerned, this is the sort of path Mr. Gladstone would have taken if he weren't such an idiot.
Anything else?: He has, in fact, learned how to do his own laundry. So. That's an accomplishment.

Discussion here.
