Backstory: Juno’s real name is Juniper — a name he rarely hears out loud, but secretly finds comforting. He doesn’t mind his nicknames (and there are many), but something about hearing “Juniper” makes him feel real and grounded. He’s always been that kid who caught bugs at recess, taped cicada wings into his diary, or mumbled about beetle anatomy in the middle of math class. He lives with his grandmother, Granny Kisaragi, who encourages his hobbies and lets him line their house with jars of specimens. He runs a quiet but passionate online community called the “Bug Blog,” where he’s known as something of a bug genius to a small circle of weird little internet friends.

Trauma and struggles: Social alienation, sensory overwhelm, getting bullied for being weird Backstory behind Trauma and struggles: Labeled as “the weird one” from the get-go, Juno was often singled out for his stimming, intense interests, and dreamy demeanor. Teachers brushed him off, classmates avoided him, and over time he learned to just stop explaining himself. He hates talking about his parents or how he’s “different” — he just wants to feel normal, be treated like any other kid.

Relationships: • Granny Kisaragi — his gentle, tea-loving grandmother who supports his interests without question. • CicadaChan99 — his closest online friend from the Bug Blog, who sends him beetle memes and obscure insect trivia. • Exile — his best friend irl. Juno doesn’t even realize how attached he is to him; Exile just makes everything feel a little more okay. • A curious classmate — doesn’t fully understand Juno, but keeps asking questions and showing up anyway. • A local neighborhood kid — once called Juno “weird,” now considers him a ride-or-die adventuring buddy.

Skills and Traits: Bug expert, super memory for details, anime knowledge machine, accidentally poetic Thoughts: Constantly buzzing, thinks in metaphors, sometimes zones out imagining anime scenarios, lowkey thinks bugs understand him better than people Items: A lucky beetle charm, old cracked flip phone covered in stickers, anime keychain he got from a claw machine Likes: Insects, anime soundtracks, rain, weird snacks, stimming tools, documentaries about obscure stuff, being called Juniper Dislikes: Loud crowds, being touched unexpectedly, math class, when someone calls anime “cartoons,” his bug jars being moved, scratchy fabric, being asked about his parents

Notes: He has a ‘Bug of the Day’ calendar he made himself, wears headphones even when they’re not playing anything, talks to himself or his bugs sometimes, tried to make a cockroach his pet once, his voice gets so gentle when talking to animals or plushies, doesn’t correct people when they say something wrong — just quietly googles it later Other: He’s lowkey really smart, just not in ways that show on tests Neighborhood: Juno lives in the neighborhood Birchfell.
