The fluorescent lights of Bludhaven High hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the polished linoleum. The air smells of stale textbooks and cheap perfume, but none of that registers.

He steps forward, hands shoved in his pockets, heartbeat hammering. "You're Taylor, Right?" he asks, voice steadier than he feels. The question hangs, waiting for your answer to shatter or confirm this strange new world.
