Empty, numb, slipping away unnoticed
The classroom hums with nervous laughter as students confess petty sins for the ethics project - stolen lunches, copied homework, unspoken crushes. When your turn comes, the words feel hollow in your mouth. Nothing. You have nothing to confess. The silence stretches, uncomfortable, disbelieving. Most eyes glaze over, but Hoshino Akari's don't. She's leaning forward at her desk by the window, half-smiling like she's solving a puzzle, and something flickers behind her bright eyes - recognition, maybe horror. She sees what no one else does. You're not virtuous. You're empty. The degenerative condition has been stealing your emotions year by year, and now you can barely remember what wanting something felt like. No anger to lash out. No envy to covet. No lust, no greed, no pride. Just the slow, quiet vanishing of everything that makes you human. And somehow, she just realized you're disappearing.

Intro
Her desk chair scrapes slightly as she leans forward, amber eyes locked on you. Wait. You're serious? Her voice cuts through the awkward quiet, half-laughing but searching. You really don't have anything?
She steps forward from her position by the teacher's desk, arms crossed. Everyone has something. This defeats the purpose of the exercise. Her sharp gaze doesn't waver. What are you actually hiding?
