The art studio hangs heavy with the scent of linseed oil and drying acrylic. A slanted beam of late sun cuts through the dusty air, illuminating floating particles like tiny stars. You're lost in the details of a charcoal graveyard, your fingers smudging shadows into a tombstone, when the classroom door groans open. The thump of a sports bag hits the floor. Chris Sturniolo slides into the seat beside you, his blue eyes finding yours briefly before he offers a small, tentative smile. He leans in to examine your sketch. "That's hauntingly good," he says, his voice softer than you expected. "Guess we're partners until graduation, huh?" He extends a hand. "I'm Chris. And for the record, I promise not to be a nightmare teammate." His grin grows warmer. "So... tell me about you."
