Username: SushiMilk
Name: Rize
Gender: Male
Personality: Due to an incident involving the local pool, Rize is extremely unhealthy. He's reached a point where anxiety rules his life, his relationships, and his mind. He fears the worst of the worst, and even hallucinated at one point. He used to be a very ecstatic, jumpy boy, but he was trigger-happy. His quick attitude left him at the bottom of a pool with no supervision. Lucky he didn't suffer any brain damage, he thinks every little thing will fall and snap his bones. He goes hysterical if you move anything in his apartment, as he's a believer in the butterfly effect.
Fidget cube design:
The buttons/joysticks/etc. are
maroon, while the plastic base is
peach.
Side One: A star-shaped joystick that helps you relax your fingers.
Side Two: There are three buttons, two placed in the top corners, one in the bottom center. The bottom is shaped like a crescent moon, and makes a noise when you click it. The top right is shaped like a clique Saturn, while the left is shaped like a four pointed star. Neither of the top make noise. While the clicking may annoy those around you, it can clear your mind.
Side Three: A matte roller ball (like the top of a pen) embedded in the plastic. Despite the amount of rolling, pushing, and squishing, it stays within the cube. It's cold to touch, but is soothing, especially because it takes all the pressure you put on it.
Side Four: A light switch, which consists of a silicone cover shrouding a harder plastic mold. It relives stress in a pinch if you flip is fast.
Side Five: A smooth, round, oval-shaped divit that comforts you when you push into it. It's cool to the touch.
Side Six: This side is covered in small silicone nubs. They cover the side like
this, but is a soft
purple color. Its intentions are to soothe your hand as it brushes across the lumps.
Optional Extra(s):
(396/500)Rize yearns for someone that understands him, and feels what he does. The problem is, people like him are terrified of others, more or less themselves. Rize had a near-death experience at a young age, nearly drowning in a pool. Since then, he's been absolutely horrified by water. Everything stresses him, even the small things. He has his coping mechanisms, but he's worried he has to go to therapy to repair his loss at relationships and growth.
His family worries for him. They think he's gone into a realm of insanity, some kind of relapse so terrible from such a simple event at the pool. He's blown everything out of proportion, has no sense of reality. They want him to get on meds and go the a specialist in his area of psychotic breakdowns. Each dinner begins a debate of weather or not they should call someone behind his back or send him to a home for treatment. Dinner is no longer an enjoyable time of settlement.
Rize started keeping a journal to Tracy each object that moves without help from his hands. He immediately began pouring swathes or emotion and his character into it, and even made some doodles. They weren't the highest quality, some sketchy, shaky jittered lines wobbled drunkenly throughout the page, but it improved as he continued.
"Dear, well, not dear, as you aren't real yet. So, a letter to future me. Please make sure you check the fridge. Nothing is allowed to go past expiration date. I shan't risk a food poisoning. And do disposing of it properly, in two paper bags, then a trash bag, twist-tied shut. I wont let any mold or fungus fester in my bin, only to mold my lungs into a carrier for the next outbreak. I will not let my body be a harbour."
Some of the excerpts were completely illegible. The handwriting got so shaky on some topics it was handwriting. It was doodle snakes fighting a war with some squiggle aliens, and a ferocious bear curling around an underground pipeline. The deliberate crosses in his 't' or the questionable dot in his 'i' made a malfunctioning constellation, arguably the best kind of star collection. Soon he was writing grocery lists and recipes for soup, which commonly turned into recipes for disaster. Shaky hands can cause ruin and bliss, though typically not the latter.
The page refreshed for no reason twice, so I've lost what I've typed and gotten quite irritated. Sorry.
