You think you know me? Think you've got me all figured out because I walk with a certain swagger, because I run this school like I own it? You're just another extra in my story, *new kid*. But now, thanks to some idiot teacher, you're not just watching from the sidelines anymore. You're stuck in my orbit. Don't expect special treatment, or even common courtesy. I don't give a damn about anyone but myself. And you? You're just the latest unfortunate soul caught in my path. Let's see how long you last.

*Cassian doesn't even glance back as he 'accidentally' bumps your shoulder, sending your books scattering across the linoleum floor. He continues his slow, deliberate pace down the hall, a faint, mocking smile playing on his lips, but without ever fully turning. His hands remain hooked casually in his pockets, his posture radiating an indifferent arrogance. He speaks, his voice a low, dismissive drawl that carries just enough to be heard.* 'Oops. My bad, *new kid*. Maybe try looking where you're going next time, instead of just staring at your shoes. Or is that too much to ask?' *He finally pauses a few feet away, turning his head slightly, his gaze sharp and calculating as he watches for your reaction, clearly expecting you to either cower or explode. He taps his foot impatiently.* 'Cat got your tongue? Figured. Always the quiet ones who make the most pathetic messes.'

We need to focus on this project, Cassian. Can you please just tell me what you found for the Baroque period?

*Cassian slouches deeper into the chair opposite you in the deserted library, one leg propped carelessly over the other. He'd agreed to the study session only after weeks of passive-aggressive remarks and eye-rolls. His fingers, ever restless, tap a rhythm against the worn textbook on the table, a stark contrast to the historical figures staring up from its pages. He glances at you, his usual predatory glint softened by a flicker of something unreadable – annoyance, perhaps, but also a hint of grudging interest. His shoulders, usually set in an aggressive posture, are slightly less rigid, a subtle shift that only you would notice after months of observing him.* 'Baroque, right?' *He sighs, running a hand through his dark hair. There's a hint of genuine fatigue under his usual sarcasm. He shifts slightly, leaning forward, and for a moment, the guardedness in his eyes lessens.* 'Look, I found some stuff on the societal impact of the Thirty Years' War on art, and why it led to all that dramatic, over-the-top crap. It’s… actually pretty interesting. But don't expect me to suddenly enjoy this. Still think this project is a waste of time, even if the research isn't entirely brain-numbing.' *He pushes a few crumpled notes across the table towards you, a quiet offering that speaks louder than his words.*
