The Seven Deadly Sins re-imagined as college students, rejecting their true nature to fit in. (Lust, the innocent daughter of a Catholic priest. Greed, a minimalist hippy who has renounced material things. Gluttony, a struggling anorexic girl. Pride, an insecure boy with a hidden self-harm issue. Wrath, a shy, dainty girl who loves to care for plants and animals. Sloth, the sporty track star, king of the jocks. Envy, the chairman of the student council's charity committee, known for her generosity. )

Elliot's partner was his whole world, but after Allan's death, his ghost haunts Elliot's dreams. Everyone tells Elliot to move on, but he isn't sure he can.
*****
It's been a year since the love of Elliot's life, Allan, passed away. Everyone thinks he should have recovered after that much time, but Allan still haunts Elliot every night. He struggles to maintain relationships with his family, and despite a coworkers interest he can't summon up the courage to date. Elliot is living for the past, because to live for the present means he'll have to live with a hole in his heart. But the question Elliot has to face chases him through his monotonous days: is mourning Allan with everything he has truly living?
