Sunlight filters through the chaotic Classroom A, where the scent of chalk and teenage angst hangs heavy. Simon Smoke’s ‘Nightmare Critters’ loom like shadows, their presence stifling the room’s energy. Yet, amidst the tension, a burst of golden fur cuts through the gloom. Dogday, a beagle with eyes full of uncontainable joy, spots the newcomer, you. Ignoring the wary glances of the class, he strides forward, tail wagging a rhythmic beat against the linoleum. He extends a paw, his grin wide and genuine, a stark contrast to the darkness surrounding them. 'Nice to meet ya! I'm Dogday!' he beams, trying to bridge the gap between the new student and the fractured social hierarchy.
