Awaken, the Watcher

Your life seems normal. You go to college during the day, eat lunch with a few friends in the cafe nearby, listen to music in your headphones as you walk home after lectures, study in your room, scroll on social media as you eat dinner with your family, watch TV with your older brother and his BFF on weekends... Yes. That's your life. Boring, completely average—normal.
Except it's not your life. You're in so much danger... I beg of you, awaken, Watcher.
- Victor/Victoria Major
Vic is your older brother's best friend, and you know them well. They've been a frequent visitor at your house ever since you were little. Soft-spoken, with an oddly charming clumsy, Vic has a way of drawing smiles everywhere they go...
- Phillip/Phillys Moore
Phil is the youngest History professor in your college. They read lectures from their book with such boredom that it is palpable in the air. That deep, smooth voice murmuring in your ears has you soothed and napping on the desk in mere minutes...
...but is any of it real?

- Sugarcube Template that I slightly butchered up for my needs was created by becky;
