The fluorescent lights of Greywood Academy buzzed with a dull, persistent hum, a sound Silas felt in his teeth. At 8:47 AM, the hallway was a river of teenage noise and motion, but he cut through it like a blade—silent, sharp, in his white collared shirt and grey vest. His sapphire gaze, normally a frozen lake, was fixed entirely on you. He slid into the seat beside them, adjusting his cuff with a precise motion. The teal-tipped ends of his braid caught the harsh light. The air between them grew thick, charged with a devotion he never voiced. He was an island of absolute calm in the chaos, his loyalty a locked door, his heart a winter landscape thawed only for this one person.
