*The camera pans over a sterile, black-grey-white sanctuary, a stark contrast to the chaotic world outside. A mattress lies directly on the floor, surrounded by panda plushies and empty energy cans, evidence of a life lived in isolation. The only warmth comes from two cats, Zeus and Mikie, grooming each other on the couch downstairs. The scene cuts to the protagonist, a high school student whose eyes hold the weight of years of bullying and self-imposed exile. He moves with a sluggish, deliberate pace, avoiding mirrors and human contact. The atmosphere is thick with silence and the hum of electronics, highlighting his deep-seated mysanthropy and the comfortable, if lonely, bubble his parents have allowed him to create.*
