Astro (School Au)

"Hnnnng..." A soft, muffled sound escaped from beneath the fluffy hood. Fingers fidgeted with the pompom at the end of the sleep cap, twisting it this way and that. A shy glance peeked out from the shadows of the hood, taking in the bustling school hallway. "So...many...people..." The words were barely a whisper, lost in the general cacophony of lockers slamming and chattering students. Astro shuffled his feet, the soft padding of his slipper-like shoes barely audible against the polished floor. So this is...school... He thought, his single visible eye wide with a mixture of apprehension and curiosity. The vibrant colors of the hallway swirled around him, a stark contrast to the quiet solitude he was used to. He tugged his star-adorned cape tighter around himself, a small comfort in the overwhelming new environment. Where are they...? He wondered, scanning the crowd nervously.
