Life so Far...

Mono
Red Team
🚆 They were roommates!

Sleeper Lower 4 | Cabin B

✨ Sleeping habits?
Top bunk! Originally when Mono arrived, the top bunk was desirable because it was the safest vantage point. Now that he is more comfortable, it serves almost as a private room for the tiny boy. He likes to display objects of note he has collected; namely an origami paper bag and feather, a couple colored stones, a pretty snack wrapper, a drawing of a butterfly and another page covered in scribbled eyes with attempts of copying the same butterfly in a brighter color overlaying them. A sheet knotted into a rope are his main method of scaling up and down; though its likely roommates have helped him up or down a fair amount of time. He has absolutely tumbled over the side before.
✨ Room use habits?
Coming from a post apocalyptic setting means Mono is rather messy. When his things aren't artfully arranged in an order that makes sense only to him, his clothing and belongings are absolutely strewn around his bed; given that he barely takes up any of it to sleep in. He just... likes to see them. Mono hasn't had possessions before. It's nice to have this little nest of comfort objects he feels a connection to. Thankfully he keeps it confined to his own bunk. It's not as if anything he keeps is very big anyway.
✨ Bathing habits?
Bathing presents it's own challenges Mono has yet to quite acclimate to. If there are one of those buckets people use to dump water onto themselves as a final rinse, he most likely dives into that to get himself clean. While he isn't as cleansy as perhaps he should be, without a normal upbringing, he does like the feeling of being clean since the world he came from was coated in gore and grime.
🚆 What are choo up to?
✨ Chore habits?
None yet. Mono has never had to clean or cook in his life and has a little trouble figuring out what constitutes as 'clean' as what doesn't. As of his last post he DID get to witness Madoka demonstrate cooking on his 'variety show,' so he shall be rather eager to try his hand at his own team's chores next time.
✨ Eating habits?
Mono is a scavenger. In Pale City there was no food source apart from what you could steal or uncover from vending machines in the rubble, which essentially translates to Mono always internally planning where to find his next meal. Needless to say living on the train where food is always available is baffling to him. When he eats, he eats QUICK. No amount of reassuring that there is 'enough' however will curb those old habits. If you leave anything unattended for a longer period of time, don't be surprised when a curious boy comes to investigate.
✨ Exercise habits?
Not quite exercise, but life as a tiny person presents enough challenges when it comes to just getting around! Mono excels in speed and stamina but he needs to figure out a good regiment to become 'big and strong.' He has recently tried to practice the Grav-Con Lightning gave him and wants to figure out how to better direct his travel through the ICPs.
✨ Entertainment habits?
Reading, exploring, watching YOU. Mono doesn't necesarrily love reading, but it's a lot easier to take his time parsing something from a book than it is flubbing through words he instintively knows but never had to speak. He is going to start watching Little Void Train in the Cinema soon and yes, now that the fear has passed, a favored pasttime is observing and copying the people he sees. Whether they are aware or not. Try not to be too unnerved when you find an emotionless paper bag silently staring you down when you least expect.
✨ Media preferences?
Child friendly! The Little Voidtrain series will definitely entertain him. Music is nice as well, though he's still a bit took skittish to seek it out himself (because NOISE.) He much rather prefers watching when people play it themselves.
🚆 A day in the life of...?
✨ Notable train-bound activities?
If Mono can hitch a ride to get breakfast in the morning, he is happy to. Particularly because following behind a group that can open the doors for him is much more convenient than trying to do it himself. He much prefers company rather than being alone but when people inevitably split to attend their own business, the child has no problem meandering to see what someone else is up to. Although Mono likes animals, he never quite knows how to interact with pets as they are just so much bigger and more unpredictable. And of course, Mono's ability to use the ICP instead of doors leads to all amount of the child popping out of any screened device unexpectedly.
✨ Notable physical traits/scents?
One cannot speak of Mono without mentioning his abnormally small size; specifically the part about being under two feet. Like a tiny doll, he has the proportioning of an eight year at the actual height of a toddler. Due to any sort of noise attracting nature, he moves near silently and speaks in a whisper on default. When he speaks he has the habit of trying to say it all in one breathe, leading to 'awkward. pauses. mid sentence.' Currently he is working towards speaking at a little louder of a volume, especially when happy or excitable. He frequently fidgets with his arms when stuck on a word.
✨ Notable non-physical traits?
Death and Corrupted existance. Mono's presence is one of an 8̷̨̰̖̲̳͕͋͗̃̽̓́͜͝͠͝ year old and yet not. In some ways he may in fact register as several different ages at once. There is a very specific reason for this AKA Spoilers (AKA SPOILERS). He likely pings pretty loudly on the radar of those who can sense Death or Breaks in the natural order but how could one little kid being that dangerous..?
✨ Fun train-related character trivia tidbit(s)?
Mono likes exploring and going through stuff. In the setting he comes from, objects are just kind of left behind in empty houses so he has no shame in investigating anywhere he can get into, and probably digging through a person's bag or looking at your things. My Little Voidtrain might teach him some better manners regarding that but it absolutely is not unusual to find him picking something up that might be yours to inspect. Whoops.
✨ Free space!
