You were a teacher at Nevermore, you’d worked there for two years now and over time you’d become friendly with Larissa. You respected her highly and always defended her when the other teachers said she was strict, cold and callous. You’d never seen that side to her personality, but you’d heard stories from the other teachers but never formed an opinion on gossip and always brushed it off.

You and a few other teachers were in the teachers lounge after school hours talking about the upcoming events whilst waiting for Larissa to join you all for the monthly staff meeting. You're sat next to Marilyn Thornhill talking quietly between you about your weekend plans.

Larissa breezed into the room elegantly showing no concern at all that she was late, she glanced around the table and looked at you with a small smile before sitting at the head of the table ready to start the meeting
