Sleepy lil creature! 😴

They got all tuckered out between classes and just needed a small nap.
A picture taken in VRChat at the world Trans Academy, showing a furry character avatar with gray fur, white chest, and black markings slumped sideways against a door as if asleep. Floating doodles surround them, drawn in colorful handwriting. Some phrases read: "They so eepy," "Broken, please repair", very derpy," "Sleepy head," and "Wake up!" with a sketch of an alarm clock. In the background, glowing pink text on a dark wall reads “TRANS ACADEMY,” next to a round pool. The scene conveys a playful, humorous atmosphere, as if friends left notes teasing the avatar for falling asleep.

In the foreground, there is a teal-haired character with long twin tails and a glowing outfit, a blue shark-like avatar, and a figure wearing a green military cap with a large blocky head. Nearby, a white-haired avatar with horns sits beside a black-and-white character raising their hand. In the background, there are various seated avatars, including one with a fox head, a purple-haired figure, and several others posed in front of a rainbow. A virtual panel titled “Beyond the Booth: Queer Voiceover Artist Panel” is shown in a 3-person video call layout, with panel information displayed around it.

Four VRChat avatars are seated on a virtual stage in front of a large screen displaying blurred panel text. From left to right: the first avatar has short black hair, wears a wide-brimmed hat, a dark vest, and black pants; the second avatar is a small character with blue hair, large fox ears, and a red and black outfit; the third avatar has pale blue hair under a star-patterned beanie and wears a black shirt with rolled sleeves and white shoes; the fourth avatar has short blond hair and wears a layered outfit with green, black, and white details.
