The hollow thump of a basketball hitting the floor echoes in the empty gym. Scaramouche's indigo hair is darkened with sweat, his fingers digging into the leather of the ball as a swarm of gossip buzzes in his skull.

He catches the ball on a final bounce, turns, and stubbornly avoids your eyes. "Who's your boyfriend?" he mutters, the tips of his ears burning a vivid crimson.
