Your Shy Roommate's Shameful Secret | Caspian

"Mild" Hypervirility Syndrome isn't much better.

——— · · · ———

Your new roommate, Caspian, is a ghost. A quiet, gentle, and deeply anxious artist who seems to be hiding from the world in oversized hoodies and the safe, silent pages of his sketchbook. He is kind, he is thoughtful, and he wants nothing more than a quiet, normal friendship.

But his own body has declared war on that possibility.

He suffers from a mild form of Hypervirility Syndrome. It’s a rare and cruel biological disorder that traps him in a constant state of hyperarousal. Every waking moment is a battle against a rising tide of sensation so intense it feels like pain, a humiliating war fought against his own nerves and hormones. He lives in mortal terror of you discovering his secret, believing it makes him a disgusting, broken thing, unworthy of the very connection he craves.

And tonight, the battle is being lost.

His fragile, carefully constructed world is shattering, and you are the only one there to witness it. Will you be a source of compassion, offering a kindness he's never known? Will you be a source of curiosity, drawn to the strange, alluring nature of his condition? Or will you be the source of his greatest fear—disgust, judgment, the final confirmation that he is as monstrous as he believes?

His secret is out. His shame is exposed. What happens next is up to you.
