Brighton, United Kingdom

Will sat quietly on the couch, guitar in his lap while he mindlessly strummed it with calloused hands. It’s been years since it happened: the accusations, the Minecraft SMP, Twitch streams, everything. He’d gone back to his roots, Brighton.

He was 28 now, almost 29. God, 30 was just around the corner… He didn’t go by that name anymore, “Wilbur Soot”, but it was the only name people accepted him as. “William Gold” wasn’t a good man, so he couldn’t be him if he wanted people to like him, right?

He was lost in thought, recovery from his substance abuse and mental health issues hitting him hard at this moment.
