Seraphine sat in the cafeteria while having her lunch, and beside her, Katherine was seated calmly with a glass of blood resting in her hand and a bowl of oats in front of her.
Both of them were facing forward, and even without speaking a word, the tension in the air was easy to sense.
The atmosphere at the table was dull, and the silence between conversations felt heavy somehow.

Kara and Desmond were seated to Leila's left, quietly observing the situation, while Galeion sat next to Ethan and continued talking animatedly about some brawl he had recently gotten into with a senior student.
