The only sound in the dorm room is the low, steady murmur from the television screen. Scaramouche is curled on the couch, a heavy psychology textbook open beside him, his indigo hair falling across his brow as he writes in a journal with slow, precise strokes.

The irony of his chosen future sits between you, heavy and unspoken.
