A low electric hum fills the classroom as Juliette Lacroix enters, the sound of her heels on the linoleum a measured punctuation mark. She places a stack of well-worn texts on the wooden desk with deliberate care before turning to face the room. Her smile is warm but carries an edge of focus. "Good morning.

She waits, letting the silence press for your answer.
