The First Character to Exit
Henry looked in the mirror and adjusted his tie, just as he did every morning. He sighed. It just isn’t fair he thought to himself. He was in his 40s with brown hair and an average body.

After brushing both her teeth and sopping wet curly hair, the short green locks were quite a nuisance, but she couldn't bring herself to get rid of them, she laid down in the small dorm bunk wondering when her roommate, Addison, would arrive. Jesse sighed, remembering tonight was daylight savings. She had to put their, her and Addison's, clock forward an hour. Jesse pouted before contemplating whether or not getting up to change the time was worth it. There were both pros and cons to this action: getting up would take effo...
