` and Hutch was just more like real life
"Jumping up and down the floor, my head is an animal.
And once there was an animal, it had a son that mowed the lawn.
The son was an ok guy, they had a pet dragonfly.
The dragonfly it ran away, but it came back with a story to say."

Hutch has the tendency to look very serious, and sometimes cold. He doesn't mean it, mostly it's because he's very focused on his work. Certainly, his firm jaw line doesn't help, and his eyebrows are appear to be perpetually furrowed. Standing at six foot three, he towers over everyone, but is very self conscious about it. He plants his teeth together when he's nervous, which is a lot of the time, and his eyes bulge out when he's taken aback by something, either a patient's acting out or when he's realized he's made a mistake. He usually has a small amount of stubble, because his hair grows very quickly, and his hair is grown out in a messy, castory mop that is nearly impossible to slick back.
His hands are large and hard, and somewhat tired looking as he uses them often. Hutch also tends to literally reach out for people, but is very aware of boundaries when it comes to the people he knows well. Although it never appears it would be so, his voice is incredibly soft, like the rest of his personality, though with a deep tone. It's only when you get to know him as a person that you realize that all he is is a giant teddy bear, who's just a little intimidating to the naked eye.[/size][/ul]

Hutch wasn't always so devoted and caring, but he was always extremely diligent and focused. His life is his work, and he has learned over time how much he loves helping people, even though he can't do much helping at the Asylum. The reason for this is because he feels obligated to reach out to these teenagers while they're still young and impressionable, and help them persevere. He's very much like his mother in that way, and just wants them to go on and have normal lives, even though he knows it can't be so. He's constantly conflicted when it comes to his work policies and his morals, but he knows what he has to do in order to keep people safe. Not every patient was well-behaved, and some are very dangerous, so he knows to use his better judgement, even if he wants to give people a chance.
He hates being that cold sometimes, because deep down, he's incredibly loving and sweet. He absolutely loves his daughter, even though he isn't allowed to make much contact with her due to political circumstances with his job. He acts as normally as he can to prevent asylum officials from recognizing what is really going on, and wants nothing more than for her to have a proper childhood. In spite of this, he also hopes she doesn't have powers, because that is Hutch's greatest weakness of all: the fact that he constantly lives in fear of hurting others just like he hurt his own mother.

HISTORY
Daria was only twenty, and didn't know any better, sleeping with these man from out of town. Without even realizing, she found herself pregnant, and kept the information to herself. After all, she'd been living on her own, working hard as a waitress in the city, and how hard could having a baby be? She delivered her son Edward, and was overjoyed. However, the birth triggered something inside of her, and her thoughts began to overwhelm her, especially at work. Still, she worked through it, for her son's sake. She wanted to give him a normal childhood, and he was such a well-behaved little boy... As Edward aged, his mother got worse, and would be bedridden for days at a time, because the "voices" were too much. Luckily for them, she was very close with the landlord, and he was able to cut them as much slack as he could when it came to paying the rent on time.
As a kid, Edward felt he was obligated to be there for his mother, and would come straight home from school every day to make sure she was doing all right. On days she was well, she took the time to teach him how to cook, and would help him study. They were fine when it was just the two of them, at least at a time. When he was thirteen, his mother fell off the deep end, and ended up being hospitalized. In those short months, he went and lived with his aunt Molly, but it didn't feel the same. Hutch felt at a loss, and was home alone a lot when he lived with Molly, so he studied. He studied because he wanted to make his mother happy, and maybe if she was happy, she'd start to feel better. He would go to school and become a doctor, and he would learn how he could make the voices stop for his mother. Between studying, he taught himself how to fix things like watches and locks, and found it very therapeutic. After six months, his mother was released, categorized as a schizophrenic, and did well for a while when she was medicated and under supervision.
Hutch wasn't a socialite, but his mother encouraged him to go out and meet people. With this, he struggled, mainly because all he wanted to do was work hard in school. He was so immersed in his work, but he knew he had to do something, so he became idle friends with some of the other kids who hung out in the library. He was sure they didn't know his name, but it didn't matter, because at least he could tell her that he hadn't talked to anyone that day. Edward was just a face in the crowd, and he was perfectly fine with that. Things were normal, at least so it seemed for the first time in his life.
But periods of peace don't last forever. A month before he was to graduate early, Hutch was studying away, and his mother wandered out of her room. She'd been bedridden for weeks, and she asked what he was doing. It was then that she confessed that she knew the voices were real, and that he had to believe her when she said she wasn't crazy. It logically didn't make any sense, and she said that she knew he'd been lying about having friends, but how proud she was of him all the same. She kept saying things like, "War, it's okay", and he kept getting progressively more upset. She told him how excited she was for him to leave the town and do great things, "just like his father would." Overwhelmed, and angry at himself for realizing that he was going to have to watch his mother struggle, he lifted his arms in frustration, and some force caused his mother to hit into the wall and stay pinned there. Terrified, he didn't know what to do, but before he could regain his composure, his fingers twitched and created an incision in mother's skull. She looked and him and cried, saying she forgave him, and that she hoped he could forgive her. She bled out and fell to the floor.
Not sure what to do, he cried and packed his bags. Signing out of school, he took a cab down to California, where he finished the remainder of a full senior year. He legally changed his name to his grandmother's, which was Hutch, and went to the University of California for three years, taking winter and summer classes, and then transferred to Harvard. He worked two jobs, avoiding waitering due to the memories of his mother, and started his residency shortly thereafter. He felt like he had a heart of stone, and most others thought he was cold and much too quiet. After a few months, the owner of Winslow Asylum found him in the hospital's directory when they were looking for new psychologists, and hired him on the grounds that he would be infiltrating schools and finding future patients. They gave him a fake teaching license and sent him to be an earth science teacher at a small junior-senior high school in Oregon. He found an empath girl who was advanced in the class, and during a lockdown at the school when the rest of the students went to their lockers to get their lunch, he asked to speak with her privately. Again, he lost control of his powers, and ended up tossing her into a shelf, but this time she fought back, terrified and out of control as well. As a teacher, he reported to her mother that she'd acted out in class and defaced school property and tried to attack the teacher, and advised her to send her to Winslow.
This was one of the few cases he'd done, but following the incident, he was officially hired as a doctor on the grounds. They were short staffed, so he studied neuro science and practiced surgery in the morgue when he could. He worked right under Klaus Fleischer, one of the best surgeons in the hospital, and he was determined to be just as good as he was. However, Hutch's past was beginning to hit him again, and he started to have trouble sleeping, thinking about his mother and her death. He went to read in the tracker buildings, knowing it would be quiet enough for him to concentrate, and there he met Marie. They talked and ended up sleeping together, and he began to feel whole again. Slowly, and all at once, he fell in love with her, and when they found out she was pregnant, he was nothing but supportive. Ava was born almost two months premature, but survived with her father's determination. He hates having to keep it a secret, and after she was two, he knew he couldn't connect with her any more, because then she would remember him, and that would risk too much. He wants nothing but the best for her, and he wishes more than anything to give her a normal life. He doesn't want to be the type of father his was, and is just waiting for the perfect time to leave. But, until then, he goes on, practicing on patients and taking life as it comes.
