Uncle Matheus
“Please, be safe. I don’t know what else to say. This isn’t my field ... at all. I want to say don’t, but I don’t know. I just don’t know.” - Matheus to Roe
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Not a tremendous amount of information is known about Uncle Matheus besides that he’s related to Roe on their father’s side, his wife and child died before he adopted Roe, that he lives in Fairfax, Virginia, and is a worker at a local factory.
From the little we see and hear about Uncle Matheus, one can quickly come to the assumption that he's a very supportive man. He adopts Roe without hesitation, raises them as if they're his own, and continues to support them through their life. We learn that he helped with paying Roe's tuition, and if Roe is transgender or gay/lesbian, then he accepts Roe without judgment or hesitation.
Personality
Matheus is a down to earth guy who loves the simple things in life. He doesn't need much to be happy and seems to enjoy the regular routine of his daily life. A lack of a woman in his life makes one presume that he never truly got over his wife dying, and it is seen plenty times that Roe is like Matheus' own child. He likes to tease and joke and is shown to be worried multiple times when it comes to Roe's therapist sessions and visions.“My uncle was eating popcorn when I told him, as soon as I said that I was interested in guys he stared at me, threw a popcorn kernel at me, asked if I found Hugh Jackman attractive, and then we had a full conversation about our man crushes. So yea, he had a lot to say about it.” - Roe to Chris
