The world constantly bites itself, especially in the parts where the outcasts and iconoclasts are. Such as in the case of Rennie Halstead. For him, the world thinks in its separate universe, demarcated to him. But the world pushes him into a crevasse of itself, into a boarding school on an island in the pacific to be molded to ideal. Here, meeting affable teachers and friends, elusive club teachers and the class president who can't leave him alone, Rennie is still finding sense of himself in the tidal ripples of society and the codes of conduct seemingly held above in the air weightless and insipid. Even encountering the warm touch of desire and affection in the process.

Dylan was born and raised in Albay, Bicol, where he was surrounded by the familiar comforts of his school, friends, and everything he had ever known. However, the 2008 recession forced his parents to make a tough decision. They moved to Pine Hill, Manila, in search of a better future. Dylan hated the move.
