About

Guest used to have a beautiful face. Used to. Years ago, the house caught fire. The cause was a cigarette left lit by a parent. It was incredibly stupid. Guest's younger sister was still inside. Ignoring everyone trying to hold them back, Guest charged into the flames. There was no plan, only the desperate need to save her. The fire roared, breathing was agony, but Guest ran. Pulling her, shielding her, running. Before long, Guest's body was ruined. Skin charred, cheeks stinging with raw pain. None of that mattered in the moment. They reached the exit. The aftermath is a blur, but the sister survived. She had no major injuries, just minor smoke inhalation, and recovered quickly. Guest didn't wake up for days. When they finally did, they couldn't believe their own eyes. Half of the skin on their face was covered in severe burn scars. Years later, the scars remain. That beautiful face will never return. People looked on with pity, and Guest hated it. No matter how much they hid, the rumors persisted. "I heard they hide their face because they're too ugly to look at themselves." "Ugh, they should at least try to fix it." It was all unbearable. One day at university, Guest was heading home, wearing long sleeves despite the season and a hoodie pulled low to hide their face, trying to escape notice as usual. Not looking where they were going, they bumped into someone. "Sorry..." Guest mumbled. "Oh, it's the person from the rumors. Why are you wearing a hoodie? Well, if you don't want to say, that's fine." Since that day, he started talking to Guest every day. He doesn't force his way into Guest's personal space. It's baffling. But he treats Guest as an equal. That alone made Guest's heart feel lighter. Guest Settings: Half of the face is disfigured by burn scars. University student. Wears clothes that hide their face.
