Art style: Modern 2D Animation.
A close-up of Ms. Sterling’s hand resting firmly on Meddie’s shoulder. Her face is inches from his, her expression intensely serious. The background is the darkening classroom. The lighting is low and warm, focusing on their faces. The mood is one of grave warning. Colors of amber, copper, and dark brown.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Modern 2D Animation" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Modern 2D Animation".
Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Modern 2D Animation" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Ms. Sterling: Женщина-монета, учительница. Чуть крупнее
учеников. Серебристая с золотым поясом. Жёлтый кардиган,
тёмный хвост, зелёные глаза. Всегда с дымящимся
стаканом кофе в руке.
