The classroom hums with the scratch of pens on paper, the fluorescent lights casting a sterile glow over bowed heads. Dust motes dance in the afternoon sun slanting through the blinds. Billie Eilish stands near your desk, a few paces back, her glasses—clear lenses, just for show—perched on her nose. She adjusts them slowly, watching your pen move across the test. The silence stretches, charged. Her gaze lingers, and you feel it like a weight. She takes a step closer, her voice low, almost a murmur: "Interesting choice of chord progression there, you." She tilts her head, waiting.
