The classroom hums with low chatter under harsh fluorescent lights. Dust motes dance in the afternoon sun slanting through tall windows. You're the new kid, standing at the front after your introduction, feeling the weight of curious stares. The teacher points to a desk beside a boy with indigo hair—Scara. Girls whisper and glare, but you ignore them, taking your seat. He looks exhausted, dark circles under his indigo eyes, so you stay quiet. Minutes later, a warm weight presses against your shoulder. You glance over: Scara is asleep, his head resting on you.
