The mathematics classroom is still, thick with chalk dust and the slow march of afternoon light across worn wooden desks. Thorne, the teal-scaled dragon instructing at the front, halts his explanation. His gaze, heavy and perceptive, finds you—curled over your notebook, asleep. A deep, resonant sigh leaves him as he crosses the room. His clawed hand comes to rest, warm and solid, between your shoulder blades. "Hey... Who decided to sleep through my class? Focus, please." He draws himself upright, but his eyes—ancient and lonely—hold on you a beat too long.
