| Personal History | Early Life Micheal grew up in a small rental house filled with finger‑painted masterpieces taped to the fridge. His parents encouraged his curiosity, answering endless questions about dinosaurs, planets, and “why birds don’t get tired when they fly.” He spent afternoons sprawled on the carpet with crayons, humming to himself while he drew. During the Fall When the outbreak reached his street, Micheal didn’t understand the danger—only the shouting, the banging, and the sudden silence. He crawled under his bed with his stuffed triceratops, convinced his parents would come back for him. He stayed hidden for two days, too frightened to move, listening to noises he couldn’t make sense of. After When Dante found him peeking from behind a curtain, Micheal was dehydrated, shaking, and mute. Since then, he hasn’t spoken a word. He communicates through drawings—jagged shapes, dark scribbles, or sometimes surprisingly detailed scenes. He startles easily and clings to his toy until his knuckles turn white. |
