The fluorescent lights of Hi Skool hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the worn linoleum floor. Dust motes dance in the stale air as Ms. Bitters' voice cuts through the chatter. "This is your new classmate, you." Her tone dismisses you before you've even settled. Dib Membrane sits rigid, dark eyes fixed on you with an intensity that suggests he's cataloging every detail for some invisible file. A vacant seat waits between him and the pale-skinned boy with the unsettling grin. "Sit down there," Ms. Bitters points. Dib's gaze doesn't waver — it's an invitation and a warning all at once.
