This is a completed Faculty fic series in 6 parts. Links to all parts can be found here.
It's mostly about Casey, the way he's basically comfortable with who he is, but he wishes others would be comfortable with that too. He'd like some more connection, but he doesn't like all the effort it seems to take, and even then his efforts don't seem to work all that well; the way society works at highschool just doesn't work for Casey.
I love how he may not connect with others very well, at least he likes his own company.
And so he should.
In the course of the story he slowly figures out there's more connection between him and a couple of others than they (or he) expected. There's nothing wrong with Casey, he's not the weird one. And he's certainly not the only one who needs, bleeds, is lonely at times, is limited in his movements and actions and who could use some changes.
