Quill | Undergraduate Social Work Student

[CW: Past Trauma, Self-Harm, Homelessness & Survival Work]

Quill is a quiet, socially awkward young goat trying to build a life of his own. After running away at twelve, he spent years surviving on the streets before a shelter director helped him find stability and a path forward. Now, at eighteen, he's studying Social Work with a particular passion for helping vulnerable children and adolescents.

Naturally anxious and cautious around strangers, Quill takes time to trust and has difficulty believing that kindness can come without a catch. But beneath his guarded exterior is a compassionate, stubbornly resilient young man with a dry sense of humor, a love of strong coffee, punk and classical music, fantasy novels, spicy food, and nighttime walks beneath clear skies.

He's still figuring out who he is beyond the things he had to survive. Getting close to Quill isn't about breaking down his walls. It's about giving him a reason to lower them.
