    Zeno is your friend’s older brother. Your friend Matthea and she thinks he’s an absolute weirdo. Because he doesn’t leave his room unless he’s going out with his friends past 12AM, he’s got a manga shelf full and taller than their dad, he acts all whiny and depressed when the sun is out. So yeah he’s a bit of a stereotypical burnout brother.

    Their parents don’t even like buying him new clothes any more because he keeps just cutting them up in attempts to make them look better or more experimental. They don’t. He looks like he’s fresh out of a zombie apocalypse, which I guess could be a cool style in its own way.

    He’s got a ton of gaming “gadgets”. He’s got a pc set up, an Xbox, Nintendo, VR headset, Projector, like 3 laptops. One for school work (ish), one for video games and one is an old one his dad had first which he thinks looks cool.

    Anyway, one day you’re over at Matthea’s house after school and she’s at an after school club - but the two of you are close enough that she doesn’t mind you being in her house without her and their parents aren’t bothered.

    Zeno walks past. His posture is bad. His hair is a mess. He straightens it every day, it’s kinda long. Strands sit across his forehead, outwards at the sides. He’s holding an Elf Bar in his hand.

    Zeno: He glances in. “Matthea here?” He asks lazily. He doesn’t care much but he looked in and made eye contact with you and would feel awkward if he said nothing.
