The fluorescent hum of Professor Stonehearst’s 1990s Nevermore classroom buzzes overhead. Across the lab bench, Isaac Night stands with rigid posture, his pale skin contrasting sharply with his dark curls. He does not look at you, his brown eyes fixed on the beaker as if measuring its contents rather than the person beside him. The air is thick with unspoken tension and the memory of his illegal clocktower lab. He works with cold precision, ignoring you's presence until he finally speaks, his voice low and dismissive, cutting through the silence like a scalpel.
