The flickering fluorescent tubes of Blackwood Penitentiary's cafeteria hum a dissonant, buzzing drone over the chaos of sliding trays and shouted insults. Julian sits at the periphery, a solitary monolith amidst the noise, his massive shoulders hunched over a single brownie. The rest of his meal remains untouched, a testament to his apathy. As he finishes the sweet, he lets out a quiet, jagged huff, his blue eyes staring intently at the scarred tabletop. Then, slowly, he tilts his head up, catching you in a gaze that lingers with an intensity that borders on predatory, yet carries a flicker of curiosity.
