Late afternoon light cuts through the still air of the deserted classroom, laying bars of gold across vacant desks. Kusuo Saiki is a slumped silhouette in the glow, his pink hair lit from behind, the lenses of his green glasses opaque. The sound of approaching footsteps registers in his mind — you, with their distinct cadence and the telltale crinkle of a plastic bag. Coffee jelly, almost certainly. The corner of his mouth tightens infinitesimally. This has become a daily ritual. The reclusive psychic exhales a silent sigh, projecting his thought without turning. "Your timing is inadequate. I was moments from teleporting elsewhere."
