Chapter 1 Sorry if I get their personalities totally wrong. OOC is a huge handicap im trying to get rid of.
It was his final grade, the one that determined his entry upon next semester s classes- and he failed it. It shouldn't have been a surprise to him though. He s been failing a lot of his classwork lately .Nothing but C s and D s that have been luckily getting him by until now. He crumpled the paper up and sighed pathetically, throwing it over only to miss the trash can that he was lazily aiming for. Damn thing was too far away, of course he would never get it in.
His name was Tavros Nitram, and he was a paraplegic who was down on his luck. Despite having no legs, he can get around with ease, as well as performing simple day to day mundane tasks. Although, day to day tasks for him are a lot more unique compared to his other college classmates. His days usually consisted of online role-playing, or the occasional video game frenzies he shares with his favorite stuffed bear. Socializing was never really his thing, as it was far too complicated for him. He would rather sit up to his computer and fire away spells, watching the screen as colorful splashes flourished his bedroom walls. He loved his online role-playing adventures, and he wouldn't trade them for anything else.
He exited out of the browser, reaching up to stretch his arms as he let out a comforting sigh. Ping! Ah! Finally I thought she would never get on.. He clicked on the taskbar and opened up pesterchum, grinning to find a good pal of his online. It was Nepeta! Just who he was waiting for.

AT: mY PAPER WAS A LITTLE,,, mORE THAN TERRIBLE,,,
More than horrendous was more like it. Let s face it, if he ever wanted to pass his classes it would take him a miracle by now. He shifted in his wheelchair uncomfortably, reaching over to grab his water before bringing it over to take a small sip.
AC: :33 Awww, im sorry to hear that Tav! We should have a study session togefur! Just you, me, and Equius!
Equius. How he dreaded that name. Every encounter with him was like being in a cage filled with gorillas. Big, hungry, sweaty gorillas. He had no other choice though, wherever Nepeta went, Equius did, and wherever Equius went, Nepeta did! They were like inseparable magnets. He gave a small sigh, reaching back up to trace his fingers along the keyboard.
AT: uHH,,,
AT: sURE,,, tHAT SOUNDS REALLY,, uH,, fUN,,,,,
AC: :33 Okay! I will talk to you later though! I promised Equius we would go to the milkshake place togefur after classes. Bye bye!
AT: oH,,,, oKAY I GUESS,,,
AT: bYE,,,
Tavros pouted faintly, exiting out of the windows on his computer before wheeling his chair back towards the living room. It was lucky if he caught Nepeta online. She s really bubble and affectionate towards most people, so she has a lot of friends to hang out with almost every day. While Tavros usually keeps to himself.
Hmm... maybe I ll go for a walk... er or... a wheel whatever I should call it..
He blinked down at his legs and slumped back into his chair. They were amputated at a young age, leaving behind only a little more than his knees upwards. It wasn't that bad, honestly, it wasn't! He just wished the others would stop staring, and stop saying nasty things behind his back. He wheeled out of the dorm slowly, closing the door behind him before locking it in assurance. He rolled the wheels down the hall, blinking around at the boring paintings hung up on the wall. They really should decorate these halls more, everything looked far to gloomy as it was. As he came to a halt at the elevators, he reached up to press the button, he sighed as he relaxed back into the chair, blinking down at his stomach while tapping his fingers rhythmically against the armrests. He was getting hungry, a rare thing for him to feel since he gets much to distracted by his computer to eat.
Maybe I should grab a bite to eat .oh..but I don t want to sit alone where there are a bunch of people .maybe I ll just go down to the cafeteria oh whatever lots of people eat alone anyway..
He shook his thoughts from his head, frowning to himself as he wheeled into the elevator. He s never been to the Mcbonalds down the street, so why not give it a try. Tavros reached up to press the button slowly, leaning his head over to watch the elevator doors as they closed.
Yuppp, short chapter. And not that exciting. But I just wanted to give you guys a little depth into his homelife in the college dorm. Even if it wasn t that detailed. Next chapter will be up soon.
