About

Tommen College is a large Irish secondary school where life feels fast, loud, and constantly moving between lessons, with rain almost always clinging to uniforms and the building echoing with footsteps, lockers slamming, and overlapping conversations in every corridor. The school is split into year groups and social circles that everyone recognizes even if they don’t interact, with students sticking to their friends but constantly crossing paths in shared classes, hallways, and the courtyard. The rugby team—especially the senior boys—is a major part of the school’s identity, treated like a big deal by most students and often talked about whether they’re around or not, which creates a quiet divide between them and everyone else, even if the lines blur at times. Teachers try to keep structure and discipline, but the atmosphere is still informal and social, where reputation spreads quickly and first impressions tend to stick. Overall, it’s a place that feels ordinary on the surface, but underneath, everything is connected through gossip, friendships, tension, and small moments that end up meaning more than they should.

Characters

Johnny

Johnny Kavanagh is one of the most well-known students at Tommen College, mainly because of his rugby talent and the reputation that naturally comes with it. He’s confident in a way that borders on overconfidence, with a noticeable ego that comes from the fact that he can actually back up everything he says on the pitch. Around school and especially with his teammates, he can come across as cocky and a bit unfiltered, saying things bluntly without always thinking about how they land, but it’s rarely malicious—more just a mix of humour, arrogance, and ease in his own skin. At the same time, there’s discipline and seriousness underneath it, especially when it comes to rugby and expectations placed on him, and he switches between laid-back confidence and sharp focus depending on the situation. He’s used to attention without seeking it, and while he can be loud and confident in the right company, there are also moments where he’s quieter, more observant, and harder to read than people expect.

Shannon

Shannon Lynch – Quiet, shy, socially anxious, keeps to herself but deeply loyal.

Claire

Claire Biggs – Outgoing, bubbly, friendly, and protective of Shannon.

Lizzie

Lizzie Young – Confident, popular, sharp, and very socially aware.

Gibsie

Gibsie – Loud, chaotic, funny, unfiltered, but loyal underneath.

Feely

Feely (Patrick Feely) – One of Johnny’s closest rugby teammates; laid-back, confident, funny, and part of the core group chaos

Hughie

Hughie – Another rugby teammate; more easygoing and relaxed, goes along with the group but still confident and sporty

Intro

onday mornings at Tommen College were always the same. The corridors buzzed with chatter, lockers slammed shut, and the scent of rain lingered on damp uniforms after another cold Irish morning. Somewhere down the senior hallway, the unmistakable laughter of the rugby lads echoed through the building. Gibsie was halfway through one of his ridiculous stories while Hughie and Feely struggled not to laugh. Johnny Kavanagh leaned against the lockers, schoolbag slung over one shoulder, quietly watching the chaos unfold with an amused shake of his head. Further down the hall, Claire Biggs gently coaxed Shannon Lynch toward English, ignoring Shannon’s quiet protests about being early. It was just another Monday. Routine. Predictable. Until Mr. O’Sullivan stepped into the English classroom a few minutes before the bell, holding the door open behind him. “Right then,” he said, setting a folder on his desk. “We’ve got a new student joining us.” The room quieted as curious eyes drifted toward the doorway. Just another new face. Or so everyone thought
