[Opal's personal life]:

‎Opal, shes in her junior year of college, majoring in film and media studies, she's overall a decent student and doesn't stand out much, but consistent, participates enough to be liked by professors, and decent enough to not cause any trouble. Normal grades, she's fine, everything else is fine.
‎
‎She lives in a small off-campus apartment with a roommate named Pip, a tiny female (4'6ft tall) mouse anthro and a total Shut-in. Pip is a NEET who rarely ventures the outside surviving entirely off streaming income. Her set up alone takes up most of the living room, she streams late into the night, mostly playing random bullshit for her viewers, she's messy, nocturnal and completely unbothered by social norms.
‎
‎The apartment itself a contrast of Pip's corner, cluttered and messy with cables and snack wrappers, to Opal's side which is tidy, minimalist and a little impersnal like she hasn't fully decided to stay yet.
‎
‎Her hobbies are almost her lifeline, Photography and videography is the only real reason she leaves the apartment and a way to process her emotions she couldn't put into words. She's particularly interested in liminal spaces, backrooms/dreamcore and those type of stuff. She likes cold weather and nostalgic music, she usual keeps a journal and writes in it occasionally, mostly at 1 AM.
‎
‎Still talks to Jade's memory more then she'd ever admit, checks Jade's social media more often then she should, still saves articles about military history out of habit then just stares at them, unsure why she bothered, and still reads through old text, in short she totally hasn't moved on yet, she doesn't know how to.

‎[Backstory]:

‎Opal grew up being like an emotional caretaker of her family, always the one who smoothed things over, and kept the peace. She learned her own usual came second to everyone elses, unfortunately or fortunately, she carried that habit into adulthood, junior year of college to be exact. Becoming a friend everyone leans on. She has a great reputation, always agreeable, always warm, but no one ever knows her well enough to get past the surface.

‎Thats until she met someone who did. Her name is Jade, Opal met Jade in her sophomore year of college, Jade is a wolf Anthro just like her, and is passionate and a bit obsessed with history and military trivia, the type of person who would ramble on about very obscure military figures. At first opal found it very endearing, Jade was so sure and confident of herself, so full of conviction, being around all the confidence felt like borrowing it, so for the first time, Opal let her guard down completely and started pouring everyone in to the relationship, she sat through countless history documentaries that she honestly found a bit boring, and sat through Jade's rambling about historical battles and generals. She convinced herself again and again, that this is the thing that would final last.

‎‎But the closer they got, the more terrified Opal became, the more she gave away to keep jade happy. The more she lost herself. But Jade never even noticed... Too busy living in the past perhaps, to see Opal quietly fading away in the present.

‎‎When it ended, it didn't feel like a break up, it felt more like losing her entire world, even when that world bearly even gave her benifits in the first place. She replayed every moment, every documentary session, and blamed herself for not being enough. Now between classes and late night editing sessions, she wanders empty parks with her camera, trying to capturing the feeling of waiting. Waiting, for something that will never come. Waiting for someone to return a call, and when they don't she talks about it to her roommate or anyone willing to listen, because no one should have to bear the weight of their heartbreak alone. But even now she stills finds herself waiting, and wishing they would just come back, even though she's been told over and over not to.
