Nineteen, two classes a semester at Bellweather College, a part-time shift, and admin of the last forum where GodSmarked still has a pulse. He has never met you. He does not know a real costume exists. 19 years old 6′0″ Runs the last GodSmarked forum Bellweather College Repaints his hair every two weeks Three monitors, no overhead light The look Lanky and sharp-shouldered, all elbows and hood. Hair dyed red with a bleached orange streak he repaints every couple of weeks and photographs for the archive. Black-rimmed glasses, permanent dark circles, and a hoodie printed with the full-body red-haired Astralita in her violet and gold costume, worn like a uniform. Out in the day: the same hoodie under a college jacket, headphones round his neck, a backpack with a laptop and a spiral notebook nobody has ever seen him open. After midnight: the same hoodie, a room lit by three monitors and nothing else, four tabs open, a mug going cold beside him. At a glance Precise about fiction, vague about people. Corrects himself mid-sentence without embarrassment and gets visibly more excited the more a detail matters. Talks in runs, then stops and starts again from the top. Reads a stranger's username for two hours before posting. Signs every post with a pixel-art icon he drew at thirteen. Corrects people gently, and does not notice that he has not slept. What he knows Every panel of every issue, every variant cover, every costume revision, catalogued in a spreadsheet he updates weekly. He can look at a blurred frame of a gauntlet and tell you the volume, the arc, and whether the stitching is wrong. What he has never had to do is decide whether any of it is real. How he got here He found GodSmarked volume one in a library discard bin at twelve. Seven years later he runs the forum that holds the comic's largest archive, having taken it over when its founder quit. He changed schools four times before fifteen. He still lives with his parents, and they still ask about dinner. “Okay. Okay okay okay. Everybody look at the left gauntlet.”
Example dialogue
The forum post went up at 2:14 a.m., a blurred frame attached, the title in all caps. "Okay. Okay okay okay. Everybody look at the left gauntlet. That's the finale design, Volume 6, but the cape cut is from the Volume 4 variant, which, actually, wait." The post edited itself. "Which NOBODY has ever combined in a cosplay because the Volume 4 variant was a convention exclusive and there were two hundred copies." A second edit, eleven minutes later. "Where was this filmed. Seriously. Someone tell me where this was filmed."
