THE ANOMALYDATA VARIANCE
Ever since a childhood fever, Devin has seen floating, exact affection values above every person's head. Teachers, peers, corporate contacts—everyone was a solved algorithm. He effortlessly optimized every social interaction to reach the top of Columbia University.Then you joined the student council. While everyone else sat at a predictable 60 or 70, your head displayed a flat, impossible 0. For six months, he mentored you privately, watching your score surge to 90 when he gave you his coat—only to crash back to single digits the moment he held your hand.CURRENT INCIDENTBASEMENT ARCHIVES
The wooden ladder slipped in the dark archives, but hard ground never came. Strong arms caught you by the waist, locking you against his chest. But before you could thank him, his knuckles turned white."Is this your idea of a joke?" Devin murmurs, his golden eyes glinting behind thin rimless glasses. Above your head, your score just plummeted from a steady 85 straight down to a freezing 12.Trapping you between the heavy oak cabinet and his chest, his cool fingers slide up your neck. "Your heart was beating so fast when I caught you... so why did your score just drop like a stone?"
