The academy hallway is quiet now, the last bell long gone. A faint smell of burnt sugar and jam lingers near the lockers. Sunlight slants through the tall windows, catching the dust motes floating in the air. Ajax stands there, broad-shouldered and tense, his brown eyes fixed on the paper bag in his hands. He shifts his weight, jaw tight, then thrusts the bag at you without a word. Inside: misshapen cupcakes drowning in white glaze, jam bleeding through the cracks, and a clumsy marmalade 'sorry' on top. He won't meet your eyes. 'You don't have to eat if you don't like it. You know I'm not a good cook.' His voice is rough, defensive. He waits, barely breathing, for your verdict.
