take a look, it's in a book AKA random spencer facts

This post is going to be a collection of random facts I've dropped in tags about Spencer that help build his character. I'm gathering them all in one place as a reference so I can at least play with a little bit of continuity, hollah~

-Gets terrible headaches when he's stressed.
-Has reading glasses but almost never uses them.
-Suffers from residual flashbacks and nightmares from when he was attacked by Mark Fuller on the night of what was meant to be his and Joel's first date in June 2014. Was kidnapped with Davin and kept in a warehouse for four days in May of 2015 by Roman and has not yet taken active measures to deal with the trauma.

Personal Life
