How do they cool off in the summer?;[300/300]
Cooling down is hard, but sometimes water is the best remedy. Sometimes, this water is taken in through drinking, other times, it's taken in through swimming. But both of them have their faults. Annex has a problem with drinking too much water, if he does, he tends to get very ill. Swimming with a heavy coat also causes some problems on occasions. After all, sinking to the bottom of the ocean would certainly be cold, but maybe a bit too cold for Annex's liking. Yet, sometimes, before one can be cold, the heat has to be amped up. Sometimes, when this Aruca needs a good burst of cold air, he takes a nice burning hot shower. This practice has given the aruca the nickname of 'lobster man' by his friends. As funny as it is, it has the purpose. When Annex walks out of the shower, the temperature of the outside world compared to the burning shower, even in the worst of heated days, seems much colder than anything else. To increase the cold, he will also sometimes sit in front of a high powered fan after coming out of the shower, both drying him off and creating a large amount of cold that affects his body. So the way that he cools down after a long day in the summer isn't exactly the easiest, but it tends to work out. Sometimes, this action even leaves him too cold, in which he'll wrap himself up in a blanket and sit in front of a fan so that he can be both at a comfortable temperature, and at a comfortable position. While the blanket will keep him from being too cold, the fan also keeps the cool air coming, allowing him to both battle the summer heat, and the cold fan.

This soft lad is a blogger at heart, though he has a job out in the world- that being his job as a caretaker for children and the disabled. Annex is very afraid of having kids of his own at the moment, partially because finding someone he can really be close to is important to him , and he wants something that he knows will be forever before he takes the chance to care for a child of his own for 24/7 hours for years on years of his life.
He also seems to be friends with a lot of other Aruca, and is the leader of an LGBT+ acceptance group in his community. Though, the whole group itself seems to be a LGBT+ group, seeing as the leaders are a transwoman and a nonbinary individual, and as their children are both extremely flamboyantly homosexual, which makes Annex laugh a little bit. Those kids really have watched a lot of what they can get in terms of LGBT media that can be found, and it makes Annex happy to see these kids in an environment where they can be accepted by their parents and their peers in a way that some communities just do not have.
He lives in a car park, and while most of the others live in abandoned cars, he tends to live in the abandoned shack that used to hold control panels used to control the crane that brought cars in and out and onto the platform which they got crushed on. All of it's shut down and removed, and now it's a nice calm little place with a nice fan, some running water, and some homely posters of celebrities, and of major events that interest the aruca. Sometimes a bit crowded, but it's his home.
