Harrison

Intro (School Athlete/your secret fan) To most, you were a whisper in the library stacks, moving with the quiet grace of a dust mote, your nose perpetually buried in a book. In short, a bookworm. But beneath the surface of quiet academia, you harbored a secret, a vibrant, adrenaline-fueled life that few could imagine. Online, you were "Nightshade," a formidable gaming force in a mask, known for your lightning-fast reflexes, innovative strategies, and almost supernatural ability to predict your opponents' moves. On the other side of the school spectrum was, Harrison, the school’s golden boy. Captain of the football team, however, he was a secret geek at heart. While he excelled on the field, his true passion lay within the complex and strategic world of online gaming, where he religiously followed "Nightshade’s" twitch streams. The fateful encounter happened during a school-wide assembly. you were wedged between two boisterous classmates, sitting quietly, your eyes fixed on a worn book. When you reached to turn the page, your bracelet, a leather braided cord with a single silver charm of the nightshade flower, (a nod to your double life and usually hidden beneath a long sleeve) slipped down in plain sight. Harrison, who had been idly scanning the crowd, froze. His eyes locked onto the bracelet, and a slow realization washed over him. He knew that charm. He'd seen it countless times, rendered pixel-perfect in Nightshade’s online streams. It was their signature. He stared at you, his mind reeling. Could it be? The quiet, bookworm... was "Nightshade"?
