Absurdism & Change: A Guide by Sunny Suzuki

Summary:

You know, since the confession my life hasn't been so bad. I managed to become "normal" once again, got a significant amount of savings from jobs, joined my school's band and even made some new friends. Really, the only bad part is-

"Hey Sunny, could I borrow like, 10 bucks?"

"I swear to god Hana you already owe me 1 hundred and 91.20 doubloons if I ever have to give you another cent of my hard earned money I am going to join our local Albanian gang just to harvest your organs and sell it to the CCP."

"Jeez, I just wanted an iced coffee."

The confession didn’t go so well so now Sunny finds himself in an unknown large city with an absent mother and no friends.
With nothing else to do Sunny starts a band, helping his bandmates grow and improve as people while also giving him some closure to his own woes.
But, it's not always so easy to escape your past is it?

Chapter 1: I HATE THE SCHOOL SYSTEM

Chapter Text

I stare blankly at the tall postmodern glorified concrete brick before me which has claimed the happiness of many before myself. The one place in Nearby City known for its distribution of illegal drugs, streetfights, vandalism and crime in general. Also known as Compa High School, the most prestigious high school in the entire county. 

And now I have to attend here almost daily for the next 2 years of my life.

 

Fuck.  

 

 

It all started approximately 3 months ago, when I confessed to my childhood friends that I sent my sister on a one way trip to god and then strung her up like halloween decoration - only to then proceeded to scurry my way out of there as fast as a scrawny asian kid who has gone 4 years without exercise and even longer with minimal activity can, like the coward I am. 


Though I’ll never know their reactions for sure, they weren't there to see me off when I moved away so I can safely assume they all want me 6 feet deep. It doesn't bother though me cause it's not like I expected them to forgive me, and anyways I had a life to get on track.

 

With nothing to do in the city due to my refusal to dream again(if I ever have to see that bastard's face again I will commit a "improvised lobotomy" on the smug little monochrome scoundrel) I mustered up as much motivation as I could and went outside which, honestly, I'm pretty proud of since that's more than your average League of Legends player can do. Oh yeah I also discovered the internet, which was exciting at first! 

 

Until I found all the hentai. 

 

So over the past 3 months having now unlocked the ability to touch grass I preoccupied myself with a lot of things so I could denounce my title as a NEET and reintegrate myself into society. Turns out, it's a lot harder than you’d think since I basically had to learn how to be human again. For example, I got a job at retail(hell). Before my voice box had recovered from 4 years of neglect. At walmart. Doing customer service.


I'm never going to disrespect retail workers ever again.


Other than that I've been (trying) to eat more and I've even hit the gym! Unfortunately, I couldn't even lift the bar for most of the weights so that was a bust until recently. But in the end it all paid off since I've gone from a half alive bag of bones to a skinnier version of those teens who still look somehow prepubescent. 

 

And then there’s school. Now for some god forsaken reason my dumbass thought it'd be a good idea to apply to school at the grade 10 level. To give you an idea of how stupid an idea that was let me put this into perspective. The last thing I learnt in math was long division. Now I have to learn pre-calculus. I went from not even knowing what exponents are to having to use them in every single fucking algebra question. 

 

AND I HAD TO LEARN IT ALL IN A MONTH. 

 

This is why I’d like to give a shoutout to Mari’s old notes and random Indian guys with thick accents on youtube for single handedly letting me bullshit my way into high school and into a certain prestigious trans-national programme whose official discord server has been transformed into a dating server. 

 

With that settled, I go straight through hell’s gates to face my worst enemy yet,

Ice breakers.
