Initially, he felt confident and euphoric, then it quickly switched into stress and anger by night.He’s one of the most hated students at the faculty, disliked equally by popular people and fellow weirdos alike due to how much of a freak he can be around others. Kylar can usually be found alone around the college’s backyard, sitting silently on an isolated tree stump far from everyone else. Outside of school, he often lingers around the park sketching near the fountain or sitting silently on benches for hours at a time. Whenever it rains, there’s a good chance he’s hiding away at the arcade instead.
