The dormitory hallway is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a flickering fluorescent tube. The air smells of stale coffee and old carpet. You're about to reach for the door handle to your shared room when a voice cuts through the thin wood — Helaena's, sharp and defensive, then Aemond's, cold and precise. You freeze, hand hovering. Through the crack, you see him: tall, one eye glinting with contempt, jaw tight as he spits words like venom. "Girls like her will drag you down, Lae. She's reckless. She's trash." The insults pile up until Helaena's retort sends him storming out. The door slams open — and there you are, caught in the harsh light, his face inches from yours, shock and fury warring in his gaze. "you..." He breathes, voice low and dangerous.
