⁣Photo of The Mollusc Dimension, an East Asian in smoky eyeliner, looking dapper from the chest up in black and white. He wears a checked suit jacket. A sharp white shirt and a secret musical hanky. Signature dark grey trilby. The background is a sexy smoky grey. His head is round at the top and pointy with a shy beard at the bottom. He is extremely handsome but nobody knows this yet. His head tilts and he looks I don't know, a bit tired, a bit confrontational and also potentially warm. The usual.⠀⁣
