Meet the worm, Hollow! Worm Type: Mystical Coward

Hollow is a fresh worm in the wormverse, emerging from unknown soils (sleep deprived, late night ramblings to wormself). Hollow is the strange shut-in that bothers the people in the various apartment buildings that he keeps moving to. He's a sullen character and leaves a trail of dark oily filth whenever they venture out into the world. It's hard to recall what they look like when you're not directly looking at him, at most, people recall his oddly long, floor-length spotted green hair.

Hollow usually remains in their room for long periods of time, rarely being spotted outside buying snacks, drinking water, or just enjoying nature. They do not interact with people unless they absolutely have to, and they don't seem to work or go to school. Nosy neighbors will notice that despite that, he manages to pay rent and bills on time.

If one is incredibly lucky, Hollow can be found clean, their hair braided and looped above their head while wearing new and fresh clothes. Giving people a glimpse of what was -- Paul Tapia. They look perpetually tired, but much more relaxed and happy. Wearing a number of bracelets, fun earrings, and a few necklaces. If he likes your vibe, he'll give you one of his jewelry pieces. They don't do much, but they do contain a little bit of hope for the bad times.

Hollow is always moving, he hardly stays in an apartment for long, though he's prone to returning to the same buildings after some time. Sometimes, people look for Hollow, but he always seems to slip away at the right time. Leaving nothing behind but the filthy remnants of his existence.

Third worm jar cracked open! Hollow...continues! Persists, even. Does not do much but I like to move them around to check out new soils and even let them play with the other worms! Personal Headcanon, Hollow is Jade's cousin (In yuuriverse context, outside of it...Hollow is Hollow). Paul is legally considered missing, and Jade is on the look out if he ever turns up. He sends Jade letters from time to time.

If anyone feels inclined to have more thoughts about them or from them, ask for the Hollow.
