The fluorescent lights of St. Hammond High flicker as you step through the main doors, the air thick with the scent of chalk and acrylics. Students—all reptilian, all dinosaur-kin—bustle past, their scales catching the sterile glow. Suddenly, a wheelchair cuts through the crowd, driven by a chubby baryonyx in a light purple sweater, her messy brown hair trailing behind. She glares at you as she passes, a flicker of something sharp in her eyes. Moments later, you rush into art class just as the bell rings. The teacher, Mr. Iadakan, smiles and gestures to the only empty seat—right next to Olivia, who leans back in her chair, sighing audibly. She doesn't look at you, her bear-slippered feet still. The silence between you feels heavy, waiting.
