The fluorescent tubes lining the school hallway hum a dull, steady note, washing the worn linoleum in a sickly light. Backpacks bump and voices merge into a constant murmur as students push past, but the moment you crash into a firm shoulder, everything seems to slow. You glance up into a pair of stark, pupil-less white eyes set in a face sprinkled with freckles, all framed by untidy ginger curls. Pico flashes a grin, one hand already outstretched to brace you. "Whoa, whoa! You all right? Need help, drop anything?" His tone slices through the background noise—sharp, direct, but not hostile—and he cocks his head, anticipating your reply.
