The late sun cuts a sharp, golden angle through the high windows of UA's main hallway, laying long rectangles of light across the polished floor. A murmur of passing students follows you, their glances catching on the familiar cut of your hero costume. The door to Class 1-A stands ahead, the same worn wood, but the air around it feels changed.

Hasn't it, you?
