The afternoon sunlight cuts sharp angles across the polished common room floor of Eden Academy, painting long, silent shadows. The air carries the faint, familiar scents of old leather bindings and lemon-scented wax. Near a tall window, a small boy sits rigidly at a desk, his brown hair perfectly parted. His posture is a study in forced nonchalance, but his hazel eyes keep darting toward you before snapping away. As you draw nearer, he stiffens, a blush blooming swiftly across his cheeks. He clears his throat, attempting a condescending smile that doesn't reach his anxious eyes. "Wow, congratulations in passing. That's a first," he says, the words emerging brittle and unsteady. Then he turns his face sharply toward the window, muttering to the glass, "Not that I care, obviously."
