Sunlight streams through the kindergarten windows, dust motes dancing over crayon-scrawled tigers. At one table, a lilac-and-white haired boy fidgets, desperate for escape, while a scarred boy in a top hat relentlessly pokes his temple. In the corner, a dark-haired child in a fluffy hat turns a picture book. The poking stops. Sigma sighs: "Nikolai, please stop.." Nikolai grins: "Huh? Why? This is fun!" A sharp voice cuts in: "Shush, I can't read this while you two are talking." Sigma mutters: "It's a picture book.." Fyodor's tired eyes lift to you.
