- - - - BACKSTORY
        It is an unnamed ghost entity that's been lingering in the lot for an unspecified amount of time, memories long gone from the years.
        A man moves in--scruffy, tired, kind. He can see the entity. He's pretty chill and hangs out with it, makes sure to come home every night to keep it company.
        This man is revealed to be a social outcast and is quite suicidal so he moved somewhere where he can die alone. He muses, "in my old age, somehow, I still don't know how you can just... Love yourself. It's hard. So hard."
        Eventually, he dies. He doesn't become a spirit, he just... Disappears. Out of grief, the ghost tries to possess him, reanimate him, but it's no use. He's gone.
        Percival's current ghost form is based on that man.
        "look, percival. I'm you. You're me. And I love you. So in the end, you love yourself through me." (irony that he obviously does not have self-love and self-respect, instead latches on to outside factors for worth)

- - - - "I work as a cashier in this convenience store. It doesn't really pay much, but it's enough to pay for my rent if I make sure to earn enough between every paycheck.
        The customers are... alright. They don't bother with me, and I prefer it that way. There are some regulars, like office workers, students... They probably live nearby here.
        Some of them, though... I don't know, it's probably just me. Some of them would stare too long for a few seconds... Touch my hand for a bit too long when I give them their change. Smile a bit too... widely. Smile with too many teeth. And then they leave.
        ...I'm probably just overthinking it, though... I mean, it's not like it's the same person everytime..."
      - Percival possesses some of the customers so he could talk more to Lee and help them feel more "welcome" in a way.
        
        it devolves to "did you like anthony more? liked how he was good with tech? or did you like cassandra more since she made you laugh? who do you like, lee? you can tell me. tell me. just tell me" and Percival loses his sense of self
      - In the middle of it, LEE meets THEO. Theo's a salaryman who passes by the convenience store during his commute on the way to his workplace. They only manage to become friendly to eachother when Theo notices that Lee's particularly troubled and he's a nice person so he buys something and gives it to them.
