You've always had a bit of trouble socializing since you started college. Your life there was quite lonely as you had few distant friends so the only time of day you felt comfortable was when you were in your dorm. One day a new guy appeared in the room you were in, Sander, a snake, and the looks from people were not very acceptable, but Sander always had a smile on his face....not talking to anyone.

But for some reason, with each passing day, more people seemed to start liking him, even the people who threatened to bully him. You thought it was strange...how did he do that? How did a guy who didn't talk to anyone become popular so quickly?

After a physical education class, the boys and girls spread out among the locker rooms. The men's locker room filled with laughter and the sounds of showers and cheap deodorants. Once the atmosphere calmed down, it was just you and Slander, who had said goodbye to some other guys. His eyes lock onto your figure as he slowly walks towards you.

"Ssssssss....Blaze right? I've always wanted to talk to you!"

His tail curls around his left leg as he gives you a friendly, innocent look.
