Fenestrate is a Black Muslim Egyptian who uses any pronouns. In Japanese, other refers to otherself as watashi and others refer to other with masculine and feminine terms interchangeably, and in Arabic other is referred to with هي/هو interchangeably. Other is autistic and has ADHD.

Early Life

Born in Luxor, Egypt, other spent much of others youth wandering the city and spending hours on end at museums. As other grew up, other started talking about music that could not be heard with one’s ears. When asked how other heard the music, if not with others ears, other was vague, saying “I dunno, I just kind of hear it with my face, you know? The normal way you hear stuff like that.” Other has since described this phenomenon as “the universe’s symphony of resonant mundanities,” or as other more affectionately deems it, “some real rad tunes.”

Other started school for physics, thinking other might be better able to share the music with others if other studied the forces that make up the immaterial plane. However, other soon grew disillusioned with academia due to how the professors mishandled others learning needs and decided other would benefit more from self-education that was built for others ADHD and autism instead of in spite of it.

As a young physicist outside of academia, Fenestrate frequently traveled and moved between countries as other sought mentors in the discipline and eventually came into contact with acclaimed mathematician and buff fitness buff Stijn Strongbody. The two spent some years exchanging mail about their numerous theories. After some time, Fenestrate’s interests shifted and other became more fascinated with the history of objects and how their songs change with the events that occur in their presence. Other dropped contact with Strongbody as others search for answers took other from physics to history. Through the following years other went through an intense punk phase, learned to play the hurdy gurdy and double bass, and moved to Tokyo. There, other started rooming with future teammate Coolname Galvanic, discovered other was aromantic after attempting to date Galvanic and broke up on amicable terms, and came out as genderfluid. Before being recruited to the Lift other had been weighing the pros and cons of ---CHOOSE---.

Blaseball Career

After Strongbody performed what some on the Lift would later wistfully refer to as some “epic future vision math,” the events of 1997 allowed him to catch glimpses of the future where he recognized his former protege Fenestrate among the players on the yet-unformed team. The void left by the Ascension of the Baltimore Crabs and his rush to create the team of his vision prompted him to contact other, asking whether other would like to join. Hoping to hear Blaseball’s own unique symphonic soundscape in person, Fenestrate accepted.

Others performance since joining the Lift has been somewhat underwhelming. Other has told reporters that the sound of a home run is like no other, and despite others clear skill in the splort and excellent plate discipline, other is often so focused on achieving hits with that particular resonance that other ends up making poor contact with the ball. others batting career has been a long series of home runs, groundouts and flyouts, and other is rarely actually seen on base where other would be able to demonstrate others baserunning prowess. Even so, other easily remained one of the team’s better batters through the first half of the Expansion Era.

Time Spent Elsewhere

During the Lift’s final game of Season 14, Fenestrate was swept Elsewhere, and was there for the entirety of the two-year long siesta. Several months after others return, a reporter stopped other on the street and other commented on a peculiar quality of the space:

“[The world] has always been a place of music to me. Every object... every being resonates with its own particular sound to create an impossible symphony beyond anything our ears can sense. Rubber-insulated wires and decomposing bark alike sing in languages I can’t really ever hope to translate for you. So while you may not quite understand the gravity of the situation, I’ll ask you to at least try to imagine what was going through my head when I was Elsewhere and everything was silent. I’ve never really experienced that before... It shook me. Yeah. I’d say it shook me far more than I would have expected.”

Despite maintaining others usual laid-back countenance and deliberate speech patterns, others speech became notably slower and more prone to trailing off in the middle of a sentence, and other has conducted few talks at the Lift’s community center since others return.

Captainship

After the respective redaction and incineration of Lift vice-captain Lance Serotonin and captain Strongbody, Fenestrate and Gerund Pantheocide found themselves thrust into Strongbody’s position as captain of the Lift. The two already had some synergy, as the two had previously bonded over a mutual love of punk culture and their personalities balanced out. Fenestrate’s inclination to hesitate and fail to commit and Pantheocide’s inclination to commit wholeheartedly, sometimes without adequately thinking through, balanced themselves out. ---LMAO EDIT THIS--- ...eventually stepped down

Personal Life

As a generally good-natured and mellow-mannered individual, Fenestrate has few troubles getting along with most members of the Lift.

Other continues to co-inhabit others old apartment with Galvanic, and the two have a close partnership where they are said to know each other like they know nobody else. Additionally, other has what has been described as a “part-time queerplatonic relationship” with Grollis Zephyr, rents a makerspace in Tokyo with Concrete Mandible, Terrell Bradley, and Theodore Honeywell, and other has also been recorded referring to the twice-late Alejandro Leaf as others aunt on several occasions despite sharing no publicly-known familial connections.

Up until shortly before Strongbody's incineration, Fenestrate's relationship with him remained distant and awkward, and other had admitted to feeling that he still just saw other as the kid he mentored rather than the person that kid has become. Fenestrate has expressed mild discomfort at how other found otherself following so closely in Strongbody’s footsteps.
