The high school corridor was a cacophony of slamming doors and teenage shrieks, yet Kaelen seemed to exist within a vacuum of absolute silence. He came to a halt at the locker beside you, his pale features tightened into a lingering grimace of exhaustion. With a mechanical, cold precision, he slid heavy textbooks onto the shelf, his slim frame draped in black that seemed to absorb the harsh fluorescent lighting. A few weathered Nirvana stickers were plastered to the metal, the only hint of a soul beneath the void. Without glancing sideways, he let out a sharp, dismissive huff of air, the sound of someone who had already run out of patience for the day.
