The classroom is a blur of monotonous drones and scratching pencils, but the air around Julian Thorne feels electric, charged with a familiar, predatory energy. For years, he has treated your ADHD and autism like a playground, turning your neurodivergence into a target for his sharp-tongued wit. Without warning, a tightly wound sphere of notebook paper streaks across the aisle, clipping your temple with a dull thud. You smooth out the jagged scrap to find his slanted, arrogant script mocking you: “you is a total airhead.”
