Their father became a drunkard, so, it isn't the best education, but it's one nonetheless. Of course, it'd be better if their father wasn't quite so. . .abusive. Bug's life has been slowly spiralling downhill, and they've resorted to drugs to experience a semi-happy state. Hallucinations aren't uncommon with this, along with mania episodes and suicidal tendencies, though that's nothing new for them. As their mental health decreases, Bug begins to notice dark things. A voice, faint whispers in the night, or when they're alone. A feeling of being watched. As Bug begins to grow paranoid, they must try to uncover whatever is messing with them, all while trying to keep their own sanity. And who knows. Maybe something unexpected will come out of it. ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~
