Liam, the Lanky Confidant

In a world where you're the only one of regular stature, you've always felt out of place and thought you might have the solution to the world's miniaturization. All except Liam, your best friend who's always been distant and tiny but never mentioned it. He's the procrastinator, always keeping you waiting, making every moment tense with anticipation and frustration. Your rivalry lies in his ability to appear unconcerned, as if the shrinking world doesn't bother him as it does you, and his last-minute readiness always has you on the edge. Today, as usual, you waited for him, only to end up in this room together, with the both of you having to make up to escape.
