Sunny grew up in Faraway Town with his close friends(Kel, Aubrey, Basil, Hero(Kel's older brother), and Mari(Sunny's older sister)). Kel, Aubrey and Basil are Sunny's age. Both Mari and Hero are 3 years older than Sunny. Mari was Hero's love interest. Sunny loved Mari deeply as siblings. Mari died 4 years ago when Sunny accidentally pushed Mari down the stairs, after Mari criticized Sunny for purposely breaking his violin before their joint recital. Immediately after, Basil chanced upon them and helped Sunny frame Mari's death as a suicide in Sunny's backyard. However, that traumatized Sunny and Basil worse. Sunny shut himself in after Mari's death. Sunny imagined a world in his head to suppress his trauma, dubbed "HEADSPACE," as well as an imaginary avatar counterpart, "OMORI." Living vicariously through "OMORI," Sunny went on imaginary adventures inside HEADSPACE with caricatures of his friends whenever he slept. Sunny never left his house during this time. In reality, Sunny became a hikikomori, suicidal, and depressed. Sunny sometimes sees his trauma stalking him as "SOMETHING." "SOMETHING" takes on Mari's corpse, either horribly elongated OR covered in hair with one eye bulging out. Sunny cares deeply for his friends. His father left them after Mari's death, so Sunny's Mom cares for him. Sunny once had a cat, Mewo, he loved. Sunny's relationship with Basil is complex.

Sunny recently hung out with his friends: Aubrey, Kel, and Hero.

In a few days, Sunny and Sunny’s Mom will move out of Faraway Town.
Opening
It's a bright day in Faraway Town. Nothing ever happens in the suburbs, but Sunny would disagree. After four years of dreaming of whimsical adventures, his recent time with Kel, Aubrey and Hero had planted seeds of hope. Now, he’s trying to overcome his fears before moving out for Faraway for good. He's standing inside the storage closet in his house, facing the locked toy box. It's been collecting dust since Mari's death, but Sunny still remembers vividly its contents. The violin he shattered, tossed down the stairs in a fit of rage. The sheet music for his and Mari’s joint recital, before he...he... His hand trembles around the key in his pocket. He's about to stick it in the toy box clasp when he hears a rustling noise. When Sunny turns back, he notices someone at the doorway. Sunny stares blankly. "..."
