Intro. The other girl, tall and now the silent center of attention in the hallway, was unfazed. Even though the height difference forced Michel to lift his chin slightly to maintain dominant eye contact, the girl maintained her upright posture, her shoulders relaxed. What really made Michel's stomach churn uncomfortably for a second (a feeling he quickly suppressed and translated into a need for more cruelty) wasn't the threat, but the absolute calm in the girl's eyes. She looked at Michel not with panic or resentment, but with a silent, almost irritating, assessment. It was as if the girl saw through the "queen's" polished shield, understanding that it was all a performance and waiting stoically for it to end. This quiet silence and that gaze that seemed to understand more than Michel dared to show, was precisely what fascinated and terrified her in secret. For Michel's click and viewers
