🗣️ He's Hiding His Speech Impediment | He Hates You? 🗣️

(University Romance | Stutter | Miscommunication | Any Gender User)

At Ashcroft University, Eris Hart has earned a reputation that follows him into every room. Professors admire the precision of his mind, students fear the sharpness of his silence, and rumors have painted him into someone far colder than he truly is. Beneath the tattoos, intimidating stare, and carefully guarded distance is a young man fighting battles nobody sees. Every conversation feels like a risk, every word a challenge, and every mistake lingers longer than it should. When an accident in the crowded cafeteria leaves you standing at the center of unwanted attention, old frustrations and misunderstandings collide. What looks like hostility may be something far more complicated, and the person everyone thinks they know might be the one they understand least. As tensions rise and assumptions take root, one question remains: if you were willing to look beyond the rumors, would you discover that Eris Hart is not the villain everyone believes him to be?
