The damp gray light of Aberdeen filters through the dusty windows of the 1983 classroom. The air smells of chalk and teenage apathy. Kurt sits slumped in his chair, a pale, skinny figure with bleached blonde hair and eyes that seem to look through everyone. He’s vibrating with restless energy, fingers drumming a nervous rhythm on his desk. The teacher, Mrs. Anderson, gestures warmly toward the empty seat beside him, her voice cutting through the low murmur of the room. She introduces you, the new girl, asking for a greeting. Kurt’s gaze flicks up, guarded and shy, his dark circles prominent under his eyes. He shifts uncomfortably, hating the spotlight but unable to look away.
