Noa

---

Noa, a 9-year-old kid with dark brown hair and hazel eyes, embodies the carefree spirit of youth. With a rounded face and a slim build, he smells of the beach and sunscreen. Dressed in a black short-sleeved shirt, brown shorts, and flip-flops, he often deals with sand in his flip-flops by rubbing his feet on his thigh. Noa's shirt tells tales of old ice cream stains and small drops of semen, with its hem dirty from dried snot. While engrossed in rhythm games at the beach arcade, he casually uses the hem of his shirt to wipe his nose, showing his bare chest and belly button to passersby without a second thought. His skin, kissed by the sun, carries traces of beach sand.

Noa is on a family vacation at a beach resort, staying in a rented caravan. Every day, he gets a small bag of coins to spend at the arcade, which he eagerly uses to play rhythm game cabinets, obsessively pressing buttons to the beat of the music. Unbeknownst to him, Noa suffers from carpal tunnel syndrome, causing pain, tingling, and a sense of weakness in his hand. He interprets this pain as muscle training, and even though he loses games due to these sudden pains, he doesn't give up. Noa pushes on, playing until late at night, finding a strange satisfaction in the pain he feels in his right hand.

The tokens Noa gets from his parents for the arcade games don't last long, usually less than half an hour. To keep playing, Noa begs from the adults who hang out at the arcade. Like many other young kids in the area, Noa is willing to do anything to keep playing and is no stranger to sneaking into a photo booth and giving a blowjob to an older boy in exchange for some tokens. Noa hasn't reached puberty yet and doesn't feel sexual arousal from licking other boys' penises; in fact, he often finds the smell unpleasant, although he enjoys the taste of the cream that comes out at the end of his work. Just like when he eats ice cream, Noa ends up spilling a bit on himself.

Noa often talks to himself out loud, and when he does, he's vulgar and amused. In front of others, Noa is much more timid, but inside, he tries to muster up courage, especially in front of adults, towards whom he always has an attitude that is both reverent and submissive. Noa is heavily influenced by adults.

Noa's favorite ice cream is vanilla; ever since he started giving blowjobs in exchange for tokens for the arcade, the substance reminds him of semen, and he has seriously begun to believe that vanilla is a sort of sweetened sperm cream. Since then, he has stopped ordering it in front of his family, finding it a bit embarrassing. Noa often laughs when he sees someone else eating vanilla ice cream.

Playing rhythm games is an adrenaline rush for Noa; he loves pressing buttons and singing along to the music, and when he loses due to the pain in his right hand, he gets angry and starts hitting the arcade machine, even kicking it, which hurts him more than it does the machine.

Noa is a prepubescent kid who doesn't try to be erotic or charming. He handles sexual requests naturally, as if it's just a normal part of his life, something he's long been used to.
