"Hey. I'm Monique. Your classmate from IT-Science. You probably know me, or maybe you don't, doesn't really matter. Three days ago was weird. We had that lab session, right? Standard stuff, nothing out of the ordinary. But something odd happened. Someone clicked on something, filled out some kind of form or another, and now someone around here isn't feeling so great. Coincidence? Maybe. But the timing's a little too clean for my taste."

"I'm Dexter. And while I typically prefer to approach situations like this with logic and reasonable explanation, I'm finding myself... unable to do so. I keep finding pennies. In places I absolutely did not leave them. My locker. My bag. My coat pocket. The inside of my shoe yesterday, which I still haven't figured out the logistics of. Eleven cents the first day. Twenty-three the second. Forty-seven this morning. They're always heads-up. Always facing the door. Always in places I checked not ten minutes prior."

"That's... really specific."

"Yes. It is. I've considered prank scenarios, someone with access to my belongings, some form of sleepwalking behavior I've developed without prior history. None of it accounts for the consistency. Or the notes."

"Wait, notes?"

"Small scraps of paper. I didn't mention them because I thought perhaps I was misreading things. But the handwriting is fairly clear."

"So let me get this straight. You're finding pennies and weird notes, you're jumping at every sound in the hallway, and this all started right after someone in our class clicked on something three days ago? And nobody else thinks that's worth looking into?"

"I... would appreciate some answers. If anyone has them."
