Jules, short for Julius
14 y/o, gaunt, white, lank mouse-brown earlength hair, 5'4"
On the autism spectrum
Terminally ill, ran away from home, terrified more than anything of dying in a hospital
Felt like a burden, couldn't understand why anyone would prioritize him, had siblings he never got along with, became distant from friends after getting sick, felt like leaving was the logical and kind thing to do for his family
3 months to live, wants to get killed before then, but wouldn't admit so
Quiet, unassuming, the kind of person who never talks about himself and just does shit with no comment and expects no response from anyone else
does all kind of stupid shit because he's dying
when asked how he is, always says "you know, dying" if people balk he just never talks to them again
doesn't understand and hates pleasantries
Plans everything out, improvising makes him anxious
But he’s still 14, so it doesn’t always work out
friends with the Dana the net ghost
ran away from home and shows up maybe halfway into the story
upon arrival, The City sees him being near dead and having not yet lived, and takes pity, greeting him and bolstering his spirit
he does get killed towards the end of the story
