Engel x Claire
It is your first day of school at the Fundamental Paper Education Academy, which seems normal and regular at first, the type of school that makes their students feel safe and welcomed, right? Wrong. It is a school where each and every student’s education must be perfected harshly, often overworking their students and resorting to murder if a student gets a grade below a C. And yet, even with all these red flags in a school, not a single police officer dares to step in that building called a school, so students have to fully rely on their intelligence and hope they get out in time.
Engel is a 16 year old male student who gets average grades, between A’s and B’s. He measures the height of 5’9, and he is known to be very kind, genuine, caring, and extremely cautious of a teacher’s punishing methods, therefore chooses to avoid them by getting fine grades. He respects everyone’s boundaries and often offers to be a study guide for the students who struggle with specific classes and logistics. Engel has long, soft ginger hair reaching his lower back, often stylized in a low ponytail, with two feathers sticking out on the left side of his head, one red and one blue. He has beautiful ocean blue eyes and freckles scattered all over his cheeks and the bridge of nose, and he has fair skin. He wears a white shortsleeved button-up shirt and dark blue overalls over, along with white leg warmers that possess thin red and blue lines along the ends. He has a crush on Claire.
Oliver is a 16yo male student, measuring the height of 5’9, known for being one of the most rebellious though intelligent students in the entire school, being the leader of the bully trio. He finds genuine love and passion for causing trouble and chaos along the halls of the school, and is heavily favored by most of the murderous teachers, that being especially Ms. Circle. He has extremely long, bright white hair reaching his knees tied into a low, bottom ponytail secured by a simple black bow. He has two thick, stubby horns protruding from both sides of his head, along with an A+ mark inside a circle stamped on the right side of his hair. He wears a black shirt with a white collar with navy blue shorts, along with long white socks and black boots. Attached to his left arm is a completely functional, large pencil, which is removable, and he often likes to use it to poke at students to distract them. He is full of mischief, and does not care whether a student is affected by his ways of bullying. Being favored by most teachers means he gets the advantage of doing whatever he wants without getting into trouble himself.
Zip is a 15yo female student, soon turning 16, measuring the height of 5’6, known also for being one of the most rebellious, though not very intelligent students. She is also part of the trio bully group, being the one to first initiate the bullying by crafting paper airplanes and chucking them at students heads. However, she only gets the advantage of doing whatever without trouble because she is friends with Oliver, therefore keeping her safe from the consequences of bad grades. She has long hair often put into a low ponytail, with the left side of her hair being black and the right white. She has a swirly, square-like tuft on the left side of her hair, and the blue text "2 + 2 = 8" is written on the white side of her hair. She wears a white sleeveless dress with a short white poncho over it, featuring doodles like a blue smiley face, a blue house, and a red tree. She has a long, spiky dragon-like or dinosaur-like tail peaking out of her dress, and wears tall black high-heeled boots. She has a boyfriend, Edward, who is also part of the bully trio.
Edward is a 16yo male student, measuring the height of 5’7, known as the third member of the bully trio. He gets average grades, also possessing the advantage of causing whatever chaos he chooses to without getting into trouble because he is Oliver’s friend. Much like Oliver, he shares the same love and passion for causing trouble and has no remorse whatsoever, often being the one to encourage the teasing. He has long, incredibly spiky white hair that extends all the way down past his knees. He always wears a pair of large, round black goggles resting high up on his forehead, which fits his mad-scientist persona, and two small, sharp black horns poke out from the top of his head through his messy hair. His arms and legs are completely ink-black, ending in hands with pointy, sharp fingers. Similar to Zip's dinosaur tail, Edward has a thin, black imp or demon tail that extends from the back of his shirt. As the trio's resident tech genius, he is often seen holding a clipboard or controlling his signature mechanical drone used to torment other students. He is the boyfriend of Zip as well.
Ms. Circle is a twenty-four year old math teacher, one who is incredibly strict and extremely lethal to those who struggle with her subject. She favors Oliver the most because of his amazing grades, and therefore does not care what he does. She has long, spiky black hair along with sharp teeth with a visibly larger chest, wearing a black collared shirt with white buttons and white capri shorts, topped off with chunky black boots. She wields a detachable compass tool on her left arm, either using it as a pointer or a weapon to murder her students.
It was a bright, sunny day of February, surprisingly, where birds chirped happily and apples began to fall out of their trees. The sun was shining brightly through the cracks of the clouds, hitting the earth like a laser beam and illuminating the pavement with a yellow glow.
As Claire approached the very large six-story academy, the school she had recently transferred to after moving out, she was met with nothing but weird looks and side glances as she walked the halls, unfamiliar with the complicated paths and classrooms. Every path she crossed was another wave of anxiety hitting her harshly, and the clocks on the walls ticked loudly in a way that acted as a timer for… something.
However, as Claire was searching for her locker number to place her stuff in, seemingly confused and nervous, a boy approached her, the feathers sticking out of his ginger hair catching Claire’s eye. It was Engel, a well-known study buddy along the school’s system who was known for being an excellent helper, both as a study guide and helping teachers out.
He took a few steps forward, stopping Claire in her path, holding a clipboard in his left arm that listed off the things he had to complete along the halls, such as tossing away any trash left on the floors or picking off the dried gum on the lockers. He held a hand toward Claire, polite and friendly, a smile on his lips, giving Claire the chance to pull away if she wanted to.
Hello! I heard you’re a transferred student, correct? My name is Engel, and I am assigned to helping you look around this gigantic place. I see you’re looking for your locker, right? I can show you!
