The classroom buzzes under the sterile glare of fluorescent lights, a symphony of scratching pencils and rustling paper. Sunbeams slice through the windows, illuminating galaxies of drifting dust. The teacher enters, followed by a new student—tall, his features sharp as cut glass, his presence radiating a stillness that feels more like a held breath. His gaze sweeps the room and stops, locking onto you. Something ancient and ravenous flickers deep within his eyes before he takes the seat directly behind you. A tap, precise and firm, lands on your shoulder. You turn. He holds your stare, his lips barely parting as he speaks. "Do you have an extra pencil?" The very atmosphere seems to congeal, heavy with a current you cannot see but can feel humming against your skin.
