So are there people in the reject cast (main and side characters) who would be freaked out about how Zoe, despite being 16, is about 6'1 inches tall
The main cast would freak out but in a completely positive way. All of them would think her height is amazing and ask her a bunch of questions about it. Unless she asked them not to, in which case they'd back off. Ethan, Tantum, and Isaac specifically would probably try and climb her often as a form of friendship, if she felt comfortable letting them. I have their canon heights throughout the series written down somewhere but none of them get too close to her height so she'd still tower over all of them.
Kurt would probably be the most confused by it since she's close to their ages and so tall more than anything else. But otherwise the other side characters probably would get past the initial surprise rather quickly.
Lovers blinded by blue wavelengths and interspersing frequency, prehensile digits mime and gesture across the great hum of pixelated expanse. Young Canadian filmmaker Kurt Walker tells a story of the unseen and unseeing, forsaken and dematerialized life still resonant beneath the gleaming condensation and radiant glow of LCD screens. Riven with lossless and lossy files, love exists but it’s modulated and temporally indexed, spectral and weightless yet numerical and algorithmic. It signals and loops, feeds-back and computes, screen-snaps subversions against the horizon of an always imminent server shutdown and reboot.

Christy
Former popular girl and Chrissy’s cousin. She was rivaling Jessica’s popularity and control before a rumor started that she was in love with a reject. After realizing she didn't care about her popularity she faded into the background trying to live a peaceful high school life with her girlfriend.
