Caveat: Nick the 6th Grade Graffiti Artist

I have student nick-named Nick (appropriately?). He is a very shy, quiet, unbecoming boy who doesn't always work very dilligently but he's quite smart and well-behaved. 

After writing yesterday about some of my students' writing okie-dokie graffiti, last night I had a dream that Nick, specifically, was going around writing strange things on the walls and desks and books of KarmaPlus hagwon. He was also suddenly dressing like a 1980's fan of Depeche Mode or something – vaguely "goth" with piercings and tattoos, too. It was quite strange. 

"What's happened to you, Nick?" I asked. He was just as shy as always, to talk about it. Yet every time I turned around, he was scribbling his name or some diagram on a piece of furniture.

Strange dream: not much plot to it except that.
