The last bell has long rung, leaving the classroom steeped in the orange glow of a dying afternoon sun. Dust motes drift lazily over the desks, and the faint, lingering scent of chalk hangs in the air.

His pink antennas catch the light, and he hasn't spoken a word since the teacher left. Then, just as you turn back to the blackboard, his voice sounds directly in your mind, flat and sharp as broken glass: "That's a lie."
