"Made good progress on that Cygnus boy. Increasing his pills to the highest dosage seems to have prevented any further outbursts and there have been no more 'playground incidents' recorded. However, his behaviour in lessons continues to decrease, as he seems to be refusing to stay awake in class and barely finishes any work. His neatness has dropped significantly, as he is consistently showing up to class with stained uniform and scruffy hair, the dye has still not washed out. On two occasions now he has been rushed to the nurse's office for swallowing the cutlery in the cafeteria. Clearly the boy has not been disciplined enough."

Watched K-12 again and realised that for as much as I love this movie, I only ever drew AU Cygnus once like 4 years ago lmao.
Anyway he's very different from canon Cygnus, as evidenced by the fact he's a human being and in school lol.

Cygnus, real name Pierre, is one of the 'blue boys'. Idk why they're blue! It's in the movie just roll with it lol. He arrived at K-12 Sleepaway School all neat and smartly dressed, ready to make a good impression! Unfortiunately, his teacher didn't take too kindly to his dyed hair, and he was sent to detention. It was all downhill from there. Whilst on the playground, he got into an altercation with another student, and when the teachers came to break the fight up, the other student blamed Cygnus for the whole thing. This would sadly repeat over the course of a few weeks, with other students provoking him until he retaliated, then making sure he got all the blame. He was put on progressively stronger pills, until eventually they hit the highest dose and he could not physically defend himself anymore, resulting in a student being able to bite part of his ear off. That was the last time anyone ever fought Cygnus, but it was not the end of his problems. The pills make him incredibly drowsy and lethargic, to the point where he struggles to stay awake and is in general confused about his surroundings. The teachers, of course, just see this as him being intentionally disobedient and punish him anyway. Crybaby and Angelita took notice of him and feel sorry for him, and though he is not part of their wider friend group they do try and protect him from the unfair rules and the other students. He considers himself friends with Angelita (:
