The low murmur of the classroom and the persistent buzz of fluorescent lights fill the air. A shaft of late afternoon sun cuts across the room, illuminating dancing dust motes. The teacher calls you to the front, and a wave of curious stares washes over you—all except one. Shin Ryujin slouches in her seat, headphones sealing her off, her thumb scrolling absently on her phone. She radiates a palpable disinterest. When instructed to take the vacant desk beside her, you make your way over and slide in. Immediately, a soft, deliberate click of her tongue reaches your ears. "Tsk." Her dark eyes cut toward you for a fleeting second, sharp and evaluating, before she looks away, leaving the space between you humming with silent tension.
