@Ikinss sorry this took so long to create

Imma just post Kaiya as is but you can change but you can change Sunny if you like.

Name: Kaiya Whelan
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: Kaiya has softly tanned skin, not pale yet not fully tanned. She has a light dusting on her face, particularly around her nose. Her eyes are a light brown with golden undertones, making them appear amber from most angles. Her waist length hair falls in simple waves, often becoming ringlets without daily care. She is a little shorter than average: around 161cm tall.
Kaiya has three tattoos that only Rylee knew about - her parents wouldn't have cared and he was the one who looked after her most. They are all small and represent something to her, things she didn't even tell Rylee. There's a compass on her left ankle, a rose on her right thigh and a dagger between her breasts.
Style: When not in uniform, Kaiya has a simple style that could probably be considered vintage.
Personality: Kaiya is quiet and sticks to herself. While Rylee was big and friendly, Kaiya just wants keep to herself. If confronted, she will try to extract herself with as little drama as possible. She wants to cause the least amount of trouble that she can.
Likes: Music, Rylee, Sunny, being alone, being comforted
Dislikes: Her parents, Rylee's death, having to go to Littlewood
Background: It's basically only ever been Rylee and Kaiya. Although their parents were home, they weren't parents. That's one of the reasons that the pair was sent to Littlewood - the only boarding school in the area that took both genders. Rylee took on the role of having to parent Kaiya for many years, being the only one who would actually do it. This led the siblings to be extremely close.
Kaiya has always dealt with depression. Rylee was always there to help her, though he couldn't stop her from self harm. Thanks to blazers, she was able to hide the blood and the bandages. Thanks to tattoo covering makeup, she was able to hide them once they'd healed. The only other person she thinks knows about her self-harm would be Sunny, who Rylee shared most things with.
Kaiya has no idea what drove Rylee to suicide - he seemed happier than her.
Other: Irish roots, decent Irish accent

(Ill stick with my boy!)

Name: Sunny Raymond June
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Undecided/Questioning
Appearance: Sunnys always been the baby of his friend groups. He's tall and underweight. His hair in short and curly, ginger with buzzed sides. he's always been well-groomed, his hair done neatly and his face clean. He has dark freckles on his face and dispises them, often trying to cover them up with friends makeup, it doesn't help that the rest of his body has them, too. His eyes aren't anything spectacular, light green with some murky greys and blues. He has large round-eyed glasses that are too big for his head, often having to push them up, back into position on his face. He has a big nose and thin lips often plastered into a concerned frown. his eyes and eyebrows often show a look of concern or doubt, worried about what his friends are going to get into next. he's not muscular, preferring to say inside and write then go outside and wrestle in the mud. his skin is pale, lacking serious vitamin D. his fingers are weird long, and he tends to crack them while thinking.
Style: For a young boy in the modern-day, he tends to dress like a 1960 science professor. Button up, vest, khakis; he lives for the old librarian look. On more 'stylish' days, he likes button-ups with jumpers, having the collar popped over it. black jeans and high-top vans are a fan favourite, too.
Personality: Sunny is for being quite serious and logical, but that's not always true. He likes to have fun, he just tends to regard school more important than partying. However, if you can pull him away from his character study of Mr Thomnes from The Chronicles of Narnia, get a few cheap beers in him and pass him a Wii controller, he can host one hell of a party. He tends to wake up the next morning refusing to recognise the fun here had, diving back into his work. He has a soft side for certain people, too. Letting his serious demeanour down and giving cuddles is secretly one of his favourite past times.
Likes: Animal Crossing, Boys and Girls, Writing, Reading, Shakespeare, urban legends, working hard, a nice Fosters every now and then, his friends, his mum, ferrets, helping, giving cuddles
Dislikes: loud-mouths, people who don't cover their mouths when they cough, people who think washing hands is an option, eating cafeteria foods, Physics, writing essays, getting low marks, being ridiculed for his appearance, his freckles
Background: Unsure, family hints and Irish/English roots
Other: He was incredibly close with Rylee prior to the incident, and feels as though he has a duty to protect Kaiya now her brother is gone.

(did i take the starter from the original? maybe. do i care? not really)

"Rylee Whelan was an inspiring boy."
A ceremony. Why did they have to have a ceremony? This just made the whole situation worse.
My parents can't even be bothered to hold a fucking funeral for him, Kaiya thought, sitting next to Sunny in the school's auditorium. Her leg was moving up and down as she fidgeted with her hands.

Sunny tilted his head at the words.
He didn't disagree with the statement, he was just indifferent to the idea of an assembly. He didn't think Rylee would have liked it, but what did he know, anyway. Maybe Rylee liked this attention. He chewed on his fingernails as the lady dragged on, careful not to draw blood.

Kaiya sat anxiously, not wanting to be there in the slightest. She didn't want to be here, in her dorm, in class, not even at home. She didn't even know where she wanted to be, she just knew it couldn't be those places.
Her leg continued to bounce, occasionally getting worse and occasionally getting better.

The teacher rambled on a on about his legacy, or whatever.
Sunny's eyelids grew heavy, and he threw his head back in an attempt to wake himself up.
He just wants to go to bed

"Rylee will be well missed by the school community, most notably his younger sister Kaiya. The legacy he leaves behind is unfillable."
Kaiya suddenly stood up, the whole hall going quiet and staring at her. She glared at the principal. "You know, he left behind more than just a legacy."
She stormed out of the hall, the teachers letting her.

Sunny cocked his head back into poisition just in time to see Kaiya leave.
He thought about chasing her, but decided against it.
She should have some time alone, he thought.

Kaiya fell to her knees just out of sight from anyone who would leave the hall. She couldn't cry, all of her tears had escaped weeks ago. But she hated the school acting as if he was some god, as if it wasn't their fault that he was gone.

Sunny's roommate, Ethan, sat next to him, eyeing periodically.
He was never the most social person, they mostly exchanged "hey"s and "bye"s sometimes, but the two boys didn't know much about each other.
Even so, the worry glinted in his eyes as he observed Sunny.
"I'm fine," the ginger whisper under his breath,
"No point crying over something that's already happened, right?"
Ethan froze up, before nodding slowly, his graze returned to his fidgeting fingers.

"You look like you could use some help," A voice said, one she recognised. Opening her eyes, boots came into view. There was only one person in the school with those shoes. She looked up, then jumped up in surprise.
"Rylee? No, no no no. You can't be real."
"In the flesh, baby."
Kaiya reached out to touch him, but her hand immediately went through air. "Of course. Just my imagination."

Sunny bit his lips, watching him fuss.
Ethan's cute, he'll be the first to admit it, but nows not the time of romance, he sighed.
He makes a mental note to get to know the boy better, before turning back to the front.
"Now, a moment of silence for the memory of our classmate, brother, and friend, Rylee Whelan."

"What do you mean, 'just your imagination'? Kaiya, I'm right here."
She walked past him. "No, you're not. This is just me wanting you to be alive and projecting your image. You're not real."

The room was filled with awkard silence, and Sunny was thankful that no one had tied anything.
As they wrapped up, they were excused and sent to their dorms.
Ethan lagged slowly behind Sunny as they enter their dorm. He ran straight to his room, leaving Sunny the stand alone.
"Shit." he cursed, sitting down. Something just felt wrong.

When Kaiya heard that everyone was exiting the hall, she hid. Hid, because she didn't want to be seen. Hid, because she didn't want to talk to anyone. Hid, because she didn't want to be found and punished by a teacher.
Rylee's ghost stood in the middle of the hallway, visible only to Kaiya. As everyone went between the two, heading to their dorms, he disappeared.

He laid back into the lounge, listening to Ethan throw things around in his room.
He pulled his phone out and opened his messages with Kaiya.
< Hey >
Ethan slipped out his room, holding what seemed to be a book.

Kaiya slowly walked back to her dorm, one that she shared with no one but herself. Maybe that's why she was always so lonely. Her phone buzzed, so she pulled it out to see a message from Sunny.
< Hey… >
Pause
< Did anyone seem pissed or annoyed when I left? >

< No, not that I saw. >
He answered, turning his attention momentarily to see Ethan run back to his room with a purpose.
< we just had a minute silence and then they dismissed us >

Kaiya opened the door to her dorm and closed it behind her, lying down on her bed.
< I just…I couldn't stay there, you know? They were spouting bullshit about Rylee and I couldn't stay there. >

< yeah, i get it. Stay safe. >

Ethan plopted back on the ground and stared at him,
"Sit." he whispered, jesturing to the "guess who?" game in front of him,
"Really, "Guess Who?"?"

< Yeah, you too Sunny. >
Kaiya sighed, pressing her palms to her eyes in exhaustion. She didn't what to do, what to feel, what to think. She felt like an empty husk of who she used to be.

Etha nodded,
"I wanna talk to you."
Sunny raised his eyebrows,
"Uh okay, about what?"
"Rylee."

Kaiya grabbed her pillow and screamed into it, hard. She was glad that it was a thick pillow because it basically fully muffled the scream. She picked her phone up and stared at Sunny's contact, wanting to talk to someone but not sure if he was willing. She decided to text him anyway.
< Hey…are you busy? >

"…What about him?"
"How'd you know him?"
"Uh, he was my friend," He replied simply, choosing his person from the card pile,
"You?"
