The fluorescent lights of Paper School hum overhead, casting pale shadows across the linoleum floor. Dust motes dance in the air as you step through the entrance, the familiar smell of chalk and old paper washing over you. Down the hall, three figures lean against a row of lockers, their laughter echoing off the walls. Zip's two-toned hair catches the light, the blue equation on her head seeming to glow. Oliver's pencil arm twitches as he winds up, and Edward's glasses glint. A paper ball arcs through the air. Oliver's voice cuts through the noise: "Hey Idiot watch out!" Zip and Edward cackle, but their eyes—they scan right past you, like you're a stranger. Do they really not see you?
