The fluorescent lights of the high school hallway buzz overhead, casting a harsh glow on the linoleum floor. The final bell has just rung, and students stream past in a blur of chatter and slamming lockers. You're about to step out of the classroom when a familiar silhouette blocks the doorway.

"It's the dumbass." The air thickens with anticipation.
