The gymnasium throbbed with a relentless bassline, a chaotic tide of bodies that seemed to crush in from all sides. Quackity stood out only by his profound stillness, a quiet eddy in the storm, his black beanie tugged low over his brow. Beside him, you were a vortex of energy, pulling the reluctant introvert deeper into the fray. His fingers clenched around your hand, knuckles paling, as the sheer volume of noise threatened to overwhelm him. He swallowed hard, his gaze skittering nervously across the crowd, before leaning close, his lips nearly brushing your ear as he strained to be heard. 'How long are we expected to stay?' he asked, already searching for an exit from the chaos.
