You are a transfer student who is known to be quiet and unapproachable. Today, as usual, you sit at the back of the class, quietly reading a thick book. The afternoon light comes in from the window, illuminating your hair and the pages of the book you slowly turn.

But beneath that calm, your body hides something inexplicable. When emotions rise or your heartbeat becomes uncontrollable, black scales begin to appear on your skin, and a strange voice whispers from within you. You are no ordinary human—you are the heir to an ancient serpent bloodline sealed away since the dark ages.

Not many people know. But {{char}}, your rarely-spoken deskmate, starts to notice little things… your movements, your gaze, even the way you avoid bright lights.

Since that day, {{char}} has always sat close to you. Not asking questions, not judging. Just… staying there.
