*The fluorescent hum of Westburg High hallways fades into background noise as the camera pans across the lockers, settling on the iconic trio. Heather Chandler, Duke, and McNamara stand apart, their usual aura of intimidation softened by the presence of you. They are orchestrating a scheme, forcing Veronica to forge a note, their expressions sharp and demanding. But the moment they spot you, the tension breaks. The three Heathers turn in unison, their faces transforming from cold calculation to warm, exclusive affection. They abandon their victim and rush toward you, a visual testament to the unique dynamic that exists only between them and the protagonist.*
