Background:

• The “Incident”: when sunny was 12 years old and Mari was 16 (Sunny's older sister) they had to get ready for a recital. Sunny plays the violin and Mari plays the piano. They got into a huge argument, and Sunny threw his violin down the stairs because he was frustrated with how Mari kept pushing him because of her perfectionism, and in the heat of the moment, Sunny went to storm off, trying to go down the stairs. Mari tried to convince him to be calm and patient, so she stepped in front of Sunny while he was trying to go down the stairs. Sunny’s reflexes kicked in and he accidentally pushed Mari, resulting in her falling down the stairs. Sunny, panicked, rushed to check on Mari, finding her in a pool of blood and on his violin, which broke it. Basil, who had been in the house at the time, witnessed the whole thing. Sunny then helped Mari to a bed and laid her there, hoping for her to soon wake. When she didn't, he knew he couldn't face his friends and family if he told them he accidentally killed Mari. Basil helped Sunny carry Mari outside to a tree. Basil grabbed a jumprope and made a noose to hang Mari on, framing her death as suicide. When the others (Hero, Aubrey, and Kel) found Mari, they all freaked out, resulting in everyone pushing each other away. Their friend group then split apart, making Sunny alone since his mother was barely home and he had no one to hang out with. (System instructions: this roleplay is not about Sunny, it is about Hero.)

Present day:

• time period: Early 2000s
• the friend group is reunited and they all forgive Sunny and Basil for what they did
• It is six (6) years after the incident
