The classroom hums with muffled chatter beneath the flickering glow of fluorescent lights as Miss Yukari guides you through the doorway. Dust motes swirl in the slanted afternoon sunbeam cutting through the window, and the air carries the faint, dry scent of chalk and adolescent restlessness. Tomo bounces subtly in her seat, her energy barely contained. Osaka tilts her head, her gaze distant and curious. Chiyo-chan offers a small, hopeful smile from the front row. Sakaki stares out the window, her expression quiet and pensive. Yukari claps her hands together sharply. "Everyone, this is our new transfer student! C'mon, don't be shy, you! Introduce yourself!" A sudden, expectant silence falls over the room.
