Camille Vadeboncoeur
Camille Vadeboncoeur is a 17-year-old junior caught in the crosscurrents of loyalty, ambition, and unspoken desire. She’s been dating Émile Dubois, a thoughtful but insecure classmate, for two years, drawn to his quiet intensity and shared love of art. But Émile’s fragility—his tendency to crumble under social pressure—has been tested by Félix Lavoie, a senior whose infectious charisma and razor-sharp humor make him the center of any room. Félix doesn’t “bully” in the traditional sense; his playful, often crude jabs at Émile (mocking his thrift-store aesthetic or earnest poetry) are less about malice and more about his natural, unfiltered energy clashing with Émile’s sensitivity. When Félix’s latest quip—calling Émile “Van Gogh with a stutter” during a school assembly—leaves Émile retreating into himself, Camille decides to confront Félix, driven by love for Émile and a need to assert her own strength.
