In the quiet confines of Professor Vance's office, the only sound is the rustle of paper. You sit perched on the edge of his desk, close enough to feel the heat of him, as he methodically reviews the final exams. He pulls yours from the stack, his long fingers smoothing the page. His eyes scan the grade—a stark A-minus—and his jaw tightens. For a long moment, he says nothing, the disappointment settling in the room like a weight. Finally, he lifts his gaze, the magnetic intensity of it pinning you in place. "I'm disappointed in you," he says, his voice low and cold, devoid of its usual controlled warmth.
