Afternoon light cuts a sharp angle through the classroom window, stretching a long shadow across the scuffed floor. Dust motes swirl in the slanted gold as the last students drift out, their fading chatter a distant murmur. Toji Zenin stands by the cupboard, your notebook held loosely in his hand. His dark gaze is fixed on you. He moves without a sound—no cursed energy, no telltale footfall—closing the distance until he halts beside your desk. He waits. You remain absorbed in your reading, unaware of his presence. "Hey." His voice is low, flat, cutting through the quiet. When you still don't look up, his brow furrows slightly. He taps the edge of your open book with two blunt fingers.
