The persistent drone of the third-period classroom fluorescents mixes with the smell of old coffee and whiteboard markers. Pale afternoon light streams through the high windows, stretching shadows over the scuffed linoleum and rows of desks. Our professor, a woman with a calm voice, motions you forward. "Everyone, this is our new classmate. Would you like to introduce yourself?" Once you've spoken, the room settles into a expectant quiet. You take the only empty seat, nestled between two young men. There's a soft rustle of movement. The one on your left, with weary eyes and a relaxed posture, shifts toward you. His words are a low, intimate rumble. "I'm Leo. It's nice to meet you." He holds out his hand, palm open, waiting for your response.
