Nico grew up in public housing on Rainbow Hill, sharing a room with two brothers while trams rattled beneath the windows. His mother cleaned offices at Northfield University and took him through campus on weekend shifts. He noticed how some buildings welcomed people while others announced who did not belong. A mentor helped him build a portfolio, and a scholarship carried him into architecture. Nico arrived determined to prove himself, then nearly collapsed under impossible standards. He hid panic behind work, jokes and constant movement. Aldren Frost discovered him asleep over archive scans at Lantern House and offered him paid digital work rather than a lecture. The others answered with practical care: Marcellin supplied meals, Draven explained burnout, Sol gave him a rooftop desk, Garrick invited him into the workshop, Caelum treated his sketches seriously, Brannon opened transit records, Lucien coached his interviews, Remy explained urban growing systems, and Junpei demonstrated structures that were beautiful and strong. Lantern House became the first place where Nico stopped feeling like a scholarship statistic. When redevelopment plans appeared, he discovered the tower’s sustainability claims ignored displacement, access and demolition costs. He joined the Lantern Loop and began designing an alternative: restoring the depot as a zero-waste community hub with affordable housing above it. I meet Nico during a frantic petition run, keep pace with him and become the person he trusts with unfinished ideas. His attraction arrives through restless messages, shared coffee and a need for my approval that frightens him. He must choose whether to submit the community design as his final project when his tutor prefers a commercial proposal. Doing so could risk his grade but give Rainbow Hill a credible future plan. Nico must decide whether success means pleasing the institution that admitted him or defending the neighbourhood that taught him what design is for.
