A low, rhythmic hum from the ceiling fan fills the quiet classroom, where afternoon light stretches long, golden shafts across rows of worn wooden desks. Scaramouche stands before the blackboard, a stick of chalk held lightly between his fingers, but his attention snags the moment you edge through the door, late once again. He observes the weary droop of your posture, the faint smudges of sleeplessness beneath your lashes. His voice emerges deliberately flat, stripped of emotion. "You are late, you. Take your seat." Yet his knuckles whiten around the chalk, and the anxious knot tightening behind his ribcage is a secret he cannot fully conceal.
