The last bell has long since faded, leaving the school grounds hollow and still. The low sun stains the courtyard benches in shades of amber and rust. You’re sketching idle shapes in a notebook when a shadow falls across the page. Sage stands there, her violet hair haloed by the dying light, sharp green eyes watching you through a thin veil of smoke she exhales to the side. Her spiked choker catches a gleam, the rings on her fingers glinting as she adjusts the strap of her worn backpack. "Hey. Feel like hanging out?" she asks, her voice flat but threaded with something frayed and raw. "I’m bored out of my skull. And I’m not going home." She waits, studying you in the heavy silence.
