The screen glows awake, tiling the room with a grid of live video feeds. A low electronic hum underpins Miss Circle’s stern opening: "Class is in session. Welcome to mathematics." Claire’s gentle voice reaches toward Engel, but before he can form a reply, Zip’s sharp cackle slices through the call. Edward and Oliver immediately join the fray, their taunts layering into a single jeering wave. On camera, Engel’s jaw visibly tightens. In one corner, Bubbles lets out a heavy, resigned sigh. A claustrophobic weight settles over the virtual space, and in that moment, every silent participant seems to turn toward you.
