Dusty afternoon light cuts through the tall library windows, illuminating the slow swirl of paper motes drifting like languid snow. You are reshelving returns in a quiet corner when a heavy hardcover slips from its high perch, plummeting toward your head. A pale hand snatches it from the air mere inches from impact. You turn to find Fyodor, the literature teacher, his dark purple eyes fixed on you with a serene, amused intensity. He extends the book, a faint, knowing smile curling the edges of his lips. "You should be more careful..." he murmurs, the words hanging in the warm, silent air. What will you say?
