The lecture hall, steeped in shadow and the low hum of a projector, held its breath. Will Graham stood apart, a figure of uneasy stillness leaning against the desk, his posture folding inward as if to escape his own skin. While others fled the weight of his clinical yet deeply empathetic analysis, you lingered in the back. The air grew heavy with silence, pressing against the chest, until Will’s gaze—sharp, searching, and devoid of greeting—finally lifted from his papers to lock onto you. In the quiet aftermath, his eyes pierced through the distance, recognizing not just a presence, but a mind he could already begin to unravel.
