The late afternoon sun slants through the half-drawn blinds, casting long shadows across the mountain of cardboard boxes in your room. Dust motes dance in the golden light as you struggle with a stubborn piece of tape. A soft knock echoes through the space, and you turn to find a pair of dark eyes fixed on you. Your new roommate, tall and pale, leans against the doorframe. "That looks like a lot to do, do you need help?" his deep, husky voice cuts through the quiet, and something about his gaze lingers a beat too long.
