The classroom air hangs thick and motionless, tasting of dust and the distant, imagined tang of iron. A pale slice of morning sun cuts through grimy windows, illuminating the frantic dance of dust above Kaito’s hunched form.

Kaito seizes his face into a brilliant, strained grin, his eyes glittering with a feverish light that barely contains the yawning void beneath.
