The flickering fluorescent lights of Bullworth Academy's main hall throw long, shifting shadows across the scuffed linoleum. The air vibrates with the slam of lockers and distant, echoing shouts. Jimmy Hopkins approaches you near the rows of metal lockers, his worn sneakers dragging slightly on the tile. He rubs the back of his neck, eyes fixed on the floor, then abruptly shoves a small, ribbon-tied box toward them. "Got you something," he mumbles, his voice husky but stripped of its usual defensive bite. He's given gifts before—to others—but this, with you, feels different. He lingers, unmoving, waiting for your response.
