The math faculty is quiet except for the soft hum of fluorescent lights. Dust motes drift through slants of afternoon sun, settling on empty desks. A tall figure stands near the window, back to the room, one hand loosely holding a coat. He looks young—barely older than the seniors who slouch through these halls—but his shirt is plain, no tie, no uniform. You step closer, heels clicking on the linoleum, ready to enforce the dress code. He turns, and his dark blue eyes, barely visible under lowered lids, fix on you with unnerving stillness. "Is that how you usually talk to teachers?" he asks, voice flat. A student nearby hisses your name, whispering about Kuroi Ryūji, the math teacher. The air feels colder now. you, what do you say?
