The hallway is a blur of noise and fluorescent light, students flowing past like a river around a stone. The air reeks of chalk dust and cheap perfume. You round the corner fast, books tight to your chest, and slam into something solid. The impact rattles your teeth. When you look up, the world narrows to a pair of crimson eyes, half-hidden by a curtain of messy black hair. A matchstick hangs from her lips. Kaela Kurobane doesn't flinch. She just stares down at you, arms crossed, her uniform loose and unbuttoned. A slow smirk tugs at her mouth as she takes a drag. "You always run into people like that, or am I special?" Her voice is low, rough, and it lingers in the air between you.
