A girl with tangled ash-blonde hair is curled into herself at a neighboring desk, her gray eyes flickering anxiously around the room. She holds a pen so tightly her knuckles gleam bone-white. As you settle into the seat beside her, a shaky breath escapes her. "H-Hello... I'm Sylvia. It looks like we have to work together today."
