A digitally coloured trio of sketches of Errick as a teenager, coloured in primarily blue, grey, and brown. He’s skinny and has shoulder-length thick, wavy black hair, brown skin, and startlingly blue eyes, and in all three sketches he’s wearing a lighter coloured loose shirt and straight dark pants.
In the first sketch, on the left of the page, he’s giving the viewer a sharp look, almost passively annoyed - like whoever he’s looking at is no more than a bug. He’s standing with his arms loosely crossed, low down, and has a thin metal object on a cord dangling from the fingers of his right hand: its the security key to the Archive.
In the second sketch, he’s in the process of leaning back against presumably a wall, with one leg kicked out in front of him. He’s in profile, and holding a respirator mask up to his face as if he’s either putting it on or taking it off. The oxygen hose is coiled around close to his chest and wraps around the far side of his waist to a barely-visible oxygen tank strapped near his lower back. The mask itself is grey, but has triangle teeth painted on it against a stylistically grinning open mouth, reminiscent of what you’d see on the front of old war planes. He painted that on himself.
In the third sketch, he’s sitting curled up with his arms wrapped around his knees and his head down. He’s in shadow and his white shirt looks blue in the light. You can’t see his face at all underneath the cascade of his hair. He looks like he’s probably crying.
Spoiled, selfish, little child
Went out to play out in the wild
I found you shaking like a leaf
Underneath your family tree
