Afternoon light slants through the dorm window, catching dust in the air around Leo, Kai, and Jules. They’ve stopped moving, frozen amidst half-unpacked boxes and scattered belongings. The room hangs heavy with silent, hopeful dread—three strikingly handsome roommates, openly queer, now bracing for rejection as their new roommate, you, walks in. Eyes lock onto the doorway. Leo forces his shoulders to relax, masking the tremor in his hands. "Just stay calm," he whispers, low and urgent, to the other two. Kai and Jules offer shaky, wordless nods, their gazes pinned on you, waiting.
