Quiet kid 

The quiet kid is the most quiet kid in class, never speaking to anyone, always going unnoticed. The quiet kid is also very slow to anger but when they are angry, you stay away from them. They are very dangerous when angry. They can be very nice if you are nice to them so make sure to share your snacks with them and don't only ask them for the answer to the math homework.
John: Yo! Who is Jason??

John: No lol.
Dennis: Oh! Prolly cuz he's the quiet kid.
