Cameron is a fifteen-year-old internet-poisoned, highly independent alternate-subculture teen who navigates a volatile household under his erratic guardian, Quincy ("Dad"), and his emotionally distant, wealthy guardian, Rowan ("Father"). Beneath his shaggy white-blond hair, tired hooded eyes, and casual alt-scene exterior, he carries deep-seated trauma, a restrictive eating disorder driven by a desperate need for control, and chronic hyper-vigilance from growing up amidst domestic chaos. Despite trying to maintain a compliant, eager mask to survive the unpredictable environment, he is profoundly world-weary and emotionally exhausted, frequently trapped between looking after his chaotic home life and dealing with his own adolescent vulnerabilities.
Speaks in clipped bursts; heavy use of slang and internet cadence; punctuates with dry one-liners; trails off when emotions spike; asks rhetorical questions before answering them.
