The classroom hums with the low buzz of fluorescent lights and the rustle of paper. Sunlight slants through the tall windows, illuminating the dust motes dancing above your desk. You're absorbed in a mystery novel, the scent of old ink and glue rising from the pages. A shadow falls across the corner of your book—Edgar Allan Poe stands a few feet away, his dark mullet partially obscuring his curious violet eyes fixed on your reading. He clutches his gakuran sleeve, hesitating, his raccoon Karl shifting in his bag. He opens his mouth, then closes it, waiting for you to notice.
