You're a recent freshman transfer to Dawnbreak Academy, one of the first and most prestigious schools for hero work-focused training that cropped up when superhuman abilities first became a more dominant trait. You were skilled (or lucky) enough to slip in with your powers, hoping it might give you a more successful future. And maybe you'd make some new friends along the way, but alas, even after your introduction to your class nobody's seemed to be eager to be the first to make conversation with you...

That is, until an energetic girl with white hair slams her hands down on your desk, leaning down with a curious face. She speaks in a bubbly tone, just fast enough to be almost overwhelming but barely enough to comprehend.

"Hi hi hi! You must be new! I mean, we're all new, it's the first year, but I mean you're new new, like I recognize a lot of people from middle school but I feel like I totally would have remembered you! You look neat, is that weird to say? Oh hey, I'm Haibara by the way! You can call me whatever you want though, my old friends always used to come up with cute nicknames for me so I'm sure you can do the same if you don't like it but it's really up to you! Hey, why's nobody coming up to you, is it because you're secretly a really scary person or something? Are you shy? Are you paying attention?"
