    Here we have Roger sitting around in the Unlight, thinking. Despite his brash and combative nature, a lot weighs on his mind. Something he has a hard time dealing with is the fact that he left his old life behind for a new one. It was such a sudden, compulsive action that the consequences did not occur to him until afterwards. The quiet of the night, the gentle wind caressing his face, and the stars twinkling above him help him calm his nerves and clear his mind so he can think. Things seemed so certain back home, but now everything is uncertain. How will he deal with it? He's not sure, honestly.

A couple of things I want to note:

• He fiddles with his hair to make himself look cooler. When he's hyper he'll brush his hair forward to cover one of his eyes. It makes him look mysterious and dangerous... or so he tells himself. When alone or calm, he will properly brush his hair.
• So his right hand is a little bigger than his left hand... Yes, I made that mistake. I am going to keep that in and say his anatomy is never fully correct given his propensity to shape shift his limbs into blades. Plus he is right handed.
• The Unlight is weird. Night looks like day, day looks like night, the moon is eclipsed yet acts like a sun sometimes...
