[ At Seven Sisters High, many people had found him to be cool and aloof— the badboy all the girls wanted and all the guys wanted to be. (Okay, some of the guys wanted him, too.) His friends, the few people that really knew him, were aware that he was neither cool nor a badboy— he's more of a shy, quiet nerd. But none of these qualities are on display right now. None of them.

Instead, he's quietly humming along to the song currently playing over the airs. At least, that's how it starts. When it gets to the chorus, he starts singing along— ]

♪♫ And I don't want the world to see me~ ♪♫
♪♫ 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand~ ♪♫
♪♫ When everything's made to be broken~ ♪♫
♪♫ I just want you to know who I am~ ♪♫

[ Maybe you're one of the people he ran into when walking around in a daze with Jun. Twitching, nervous, unable to sleep for more than an hour or two at a time— his every nerve is on end. His skin feels like sandpaper. His hair feels like a live wire plugged directly into his brain.

And he can't sleep. And he can't sleep. And he can't sleep. And he can't—

When you run into him this time, he's not wandering around holding Jun's hand— he's by himself, staring fixedly in front of him. Heading to the replicator so he has something, anything to think about besides how desperately tired he is. Maybe he brushed against you— maybe you brushed against him. Regardless, when contact is made, he reaches out to grab your arm. ]

Don't. Touch. Me.

[ Or maybe you're near the replicators or the fitness area— the only two places you'll find him after the first day or so of no sleep, more likely than not. Hit me up at sohmamon or sohmamon#2402 on discord and let's talk! ]
