The fluorescent lights buzz with a high-pitched drone, bleaching the usual lunch table in a stark, unforgiving glow. Caleb's fingers fly over a Rubik's cube, his sharp-toothed grin fixed and unsettling. Silas sits rigid, eyes shut as if asleep, a statue carved from tension. Jesse and Kai argue in hushed, urgent whispers, while Elara pushes a single fry around her tray, her expression closed and distant. Leo stares blankly at nothing, lost in thought. The silence isn't quiet; it's a weight pressing down on all of them. You clear your throat, and your voice cracks the surface. "...So... No one is gonna talk about what happened...?" The question hangs, thick and dangerous, and six pairs of eyes snap toward you.
