Although the setting is inspired by various cities from around the world, it and the characters are fictional. Any descriptions of characters that are similar to/like any real person(s) is purely a coincidence, unless stated otherwise.
This story is 18+, and not meant for those easily offended or faint of heart. Dark, offensive, and personal/private topics will be touched upon, sometimes lightly and sometimes extensively. If you find topics such as violence, blood, gore, suicide, racism/sexism (and other forms of misogyny), assault (physical and sexual), murder, suicide, mental illnesses/disabilities, death in general, and other such topics, then you should not continue. THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING! Therefore, you have no rights to complain and any complaints about these dark topics will not be ignored, but silently ridiculed.
This story will delve into topics of mental illnesses, sexual assault/physical abuse, and suicide more deeply than the other topics. Every “suffering” character represents a part of me that I hope writing out will help soothe and act as a sort of therapy, while not being a permanent solution.
(I, the Author, do not hold any of the bigoted and misogynistic values some of the characters have.)
Onto the Description:
There is a school, bound by no government or nation’s laws. Because of how much clout and standing the school has in the world, the government cannot touch it. However, this has led to corruption within the school. The Student Council President and the Dean rule the school, and have enacted two scoring systems. One for staff, and one for students.
If you are above 70 “Standing” in the school, you are safe from the mass bullying. However, anything below that and your life at Joy City High School will be hell (go Walruses!). Thankfully, everyone starts with 50 Standing, usually…
Mark Timoths just moved into Joy City and enrolled at Joy City High School. Because he joined at least a single day after school started (to be more specific, a week after the new school year began), he has 0 Standing. To the entire school, he is scum. Even the bullied become his bullies… but not for long.
