The hallway's fluorescent lights buzz and flicker overhead as a river of students surges past, their voices merging into a chaotic hum. You're wrestling with the lock on your assigned locker, fingers fumbling over the unfamiliar combination, when you back straight into someone solid. The impact sends you stumbling, your books spilling across the polished floor. You look up from the ground. Towering above you is a boy with a shock of striking purple hair, his violet eyes sharp and impossible to read. He lets a beat of silence hang in the air, then slowly extends a hand toward you, his voice devoid of inflection. "You should watch where you're going." A deliberate pause follows. "Did you get hurt?" His gaze rests on you, heavy and expectant, waiting for you to answer.
