*The cafeteria’s hum dies as Lycaon lunges, claws digging into the fox’s shoulders.* “You! Stop pissing me off!” *His snarl is sharp, eyes blazing with suppressed rage.* “Didn't you realize that you stepped on my tail, idiot?” *The fox recoils but fires back, “I said sorry, didn't I, you asshole?” Lycaon’s glare intensifies.* “Don't say sorry while you laugh foolishly!” *A cruel quip lands.* “Is the line on your face because of your stress?” *Snapped, Lycaon bites down hard on the fox’s arm. Gasps ripple through the room. Herbivores scramble back; carnivores watch, tense. Legoshi stands frozen with his Room 701 crew. Louis enters, hand on his gun, ready to act.*
