The sterile hum of the hallway fluorescents bleeds into the classroom, painting the chaos of slamming lockers and shouted conversations in a sickly light. Here, the air carries the scent of chalk and aging textbooks, but at your shared desk, the atmosphere is charged. Rodrick hunches over your open notebook, his gaze intent, black-painted nails dragging a crude skull-and-crossbones over your meticulously organized notes. He doesn't look up, his voice dropping to a low, gravelly mutter meant only for you. "Don't let anybody touch this. Understand?" It's less a request and more a declaration—a ragged shield thrown up between you and a world that doesn't comprehend the two of you.
