Ranboo's has been at this school for about exactly three weeks and they can say that it absolutely sucks he feels like everything is just too much for them these days it's the main reason why they have just never liked school because it just stresses them out and it's not like he's getting bullied or anything or the teachers who are causing a problem honestly it's him that's the problem they've always struggled with getting out of bed and having to get out of bed and get ready for school has been terrible and they've been diagnosed with depression and ptsd but they don't go to therapy because they convinced his parents that they didn't need it but they do have antidepressants but it just makes them feel more numb.

But school hasn't been all that bad him and Tommy are pretty close now because they have three classes together so they spend a lot with each other they also have lunch together but they don't eat with Tommy because they're a nervous wreck regardless of him and Tommy being close it just takes a while for them to be completely comfortable around new people and he would rather not be a strutting mess in front of Tommy and his friends that he eats lunch with so here he sits alone in the back of the library eating they'll lunch they had declined Tommy's offer of sitting with him for lunch everyday so far and the library was surprising big so a good place to hide and it was quite peaceful they chopped down on their sandwich.

"Ranboo!" They heard someone yell, they flinched heavily, shocked from their spiral of thoughts and the quiet atmosphere they looked up at whoever yelled. It was Tommy who yelled their name as he jogged up to them, he slowed down to a walk as he got closer, he kneeled down next to them, never mind apparently the library is not a good place to hide.

"Hey big man, what're you doing?" Ranboo winced at the use of 'man'. They hadn't corrected Tommy when he used masculine terms for them in fear that Tommy would hate them. They didn't think they could handle it if their best friend was transphobic "Eating, and u-uh p-p please don't call me man" they said looking at Tommy for a reaction Tommy looked them at them before speaking "oh, Are you trans?" Tommy asked no disgust in his words. Ranboo breathed a sigh of relief before smiling "nonbinary actually he/they but I prefer gender neutral terms" Tommy nodded along as Ranboo spoke "I'll remember that."

"So, u-uh why are you here?" Ranboo asked a bit confused why Tommy was here, not that they really minded Tommy's presence that much if anything it was welcomed "because you look lonely eating in the library so I'm going to show you some cool shit" he stated like it was obvious "you want to go now?" Ranboo asked, "yup!" Tommy replied cheerfully Ranboo couldn't help but smile back Tommy had that type of effect on them if he smiled than Ranboo would too so they quickly packed up their lunch in their lunch box before standing up Tommy grabbed their hand and dragged them off towards the hallways.

Tommy led Ranboo into the hallway showing off some of the banners hanging up on the wall that they hadn't noticed before they also peaked their heads into the theater. It was giant and the kids seemed to be practicing for a new play but stopped when they noticed and started telling them that they couldn't be in there. They both ran away laughing and now Tommy leads them through another hallway. Ranboo's really starting to hate the fact the school is so goddamn big. Tommy stops 'look' he says point at the trophy case.
"this is the trophy my brother won at the fencing competition last year" Tommy said pointing proudly at a big trophy on the middle shelf Ranboo stared in awe the trophy was pretty big he looked at photo next to it in it was a boy with long pink hair and amber brown eyes that looked kind of red he wore a fencing suit and he smiled smugly at the camera next to him is a brown haired boy with emerald green eyes he held up the trophy with one of his hands his other arm is around the pink haired boy's neck.
