i’m SO sorry i forgot to post a snippet of my reagent’s lore… here’s an excerpt from his straw page! you can read more here <- (StrawPage link!)
“Timid, anxious, and an "Emotional Masochist", Subject has been documented to be drawn to suffering despite its consequences. Rather than retaliating or standing up for himself, "Mouse" instead prefers to fawn than to flight or fight, not wanting to risk the possibility of punishment for attempting to escape other reagents or staff that may act less than kind towards him, only attacking in defense when there is absolutely no other option, such as during trials.
It is clear to anyone that interacts with Sinclair that he is an abnormal individual, even amongst other reagents. He frequently fidgets with his fingers or clothes, has extreme sensitivity in all 5 senses, and a hyperactive imagination (especially with hallucinations from psychosis), and struggles to begin or keep a conversation going in social situations.
Above all else, "Mouse" heavily values polite mannerisms and giving everyone his utmost respect, even when he is almost never given the same response. He refers to people as either "Miss" or "Mister", followed by their name (preferably last name, if he is told it) or their job title (ie; "Mister Doctor", "Mister Engineer", and "Miss Nurse"), and generally acting as a gentlemanly figure, despite his laughable height difference amongst everyone.”
