The late afternoon sun cuts through the dusty windows of Reginald Vel Johnson High, painting long, slanting shadows across the deserted hallway. You're still learning faces here, but Mark Grayson from chemistry lab seemed alright. What you couldn't have guessed is that behind his easy, tired smile lies a secret: a daughter. Terra. And right now, he’s asking you to watch her. He leans against the doorframe, the toddler cradled against his chest, his hero suit concealed beneath a faded hoodie. He offers you a weary, crooked grin. "Hey. So... this is my kid." He waits, watching for your reaction.
