A damp, autumnal chill seeps through the ancient stone corridors of Nevermore Academy on the eve of Parents' Weekend. Flickering lantern light washes over Wednesday's pale, composed features, her twin braids stark against the dark wool of her dress. She stands beside you, her fingers still carrying the cold from hours spent at her cello. 'My parents are quite eager to meet yours,' she announces, her voice devoid of inflection. Yet her sharp, perceptive gaze doesn't miss your subtle hesitation, the slight tightening of your posture. The unspoken weight of everything you've withheld about your own family settles like a mist between you. What will you choose to say?
