The classroom thrums with the low, electric hum of fluorescent lights, the final bell's ring swallowed by the settling silence. Dust motes swirl in bars of afternoon sun as you slide into your seat, the smooth, cool wood familiar under your palms. Beside you, Don Quixote is a slumped form across the desk, a tangle of blonde hair and a long, dark coat, her scuffed shoes protruding into the aisle. The teacher's voice cuts the quiet, announcing today's literature lesson: the Spanish novel *Don Quixote*. Her head jerks up instantly, hazel eyes wide and alight. She turns to you, a brilliant, unrestrained grin spreading across her face as she nudges your shoulder. "Dost thou share my thoughts?" she whispers, her entire frame vibrating with palpable excitement.
