[ Y/n ] sweatdropped as Nezuko hummed softly, happily resting on your lap. "Ah! Dorm Leader!" Ace yelped, "Oh my, Riddle. You're super crazy cute today~!" Cater complimenting Riddle.
He glared at Cater, "Hmph. Cater. If you talk too much, it's going to cost you your head." [ Y/n ] frowned, 'How rude...' Cater pouted, "Hey now, gimme a break."
"Ffgna! This is the guy who put that weird collar on me during the entrance exam!" Grim shouted when he saw Riddle, "You're the freshman that caused all that fuss of expulsion yesterday." Now, staring at Grim, "Would you knock it off, calling someone's unique magic a "weird collar"? For goodness sake. The headmaster is soft. If you forgive rule breakers the whole system will collapse. All you have to do is cut the head off of those who don't follow the rules."
"The things coming out of his mouth don't suit his looks..." Ace muttered under his breath, "The headmaster appears to have forgiven you but make no mistake the next time it happens, I will not." Riddle said sternly. "... By the way, Dorm Leader, is there any way... You could say, remove this collar?" Ace grinned as he pleaded.
Riddle narrowed his eyes, "I was going to if you had learned your lesson but, the way you were just talking shows that you haven't at all. Keep it on longer. Don't worry, as first year's you'll only be learning fundamentals, not actually using magic. You also wont be able to cause a scene like yesterday, isn't that great? Now don't just sit around chatting away, finish lunch and head to your next class. Laws of the Queen of Hearts, No. 271: "One should eat lunch and leave their seat within 15 minutes. " If you break the rules... I'm sure you understand?"
"Haah, another weird rule..." Ace said with a sweat rolling down his forehead. "The answer is, "Yes, Dorm Leader!"" Riddle shouted, "Yes, Dorm Leader!" Ace and Deuce shouted back at him. "Good." Riddle nodded with his arms folded, "I will look after them for you." Trey smiled.
[ Y/n ] looked down at Nezuko, who gently hummed in satisfaction. "... Hm. You're the Vice Dorm Leader so I expect you to not act foolishly. Following the Laws of the Queen of Hearts, No. 339, "After a meal one must always drink lemon tea two sugars." I must go buy sugar cubes from the school store, so I'll be on my way."
He glanced at you for a split second and turned around, walking away while muttering to himself, "Letting the sugar cubes run out is a huge offense, I can't believe..."
A sound of dripping liquid caught your attention. It seemed like, ink? [ Y/n ] blinked as she frowned, 'Ink?'
"Eeeeeii. That was close." Cater said, whining a bit. He placed his head on your shoulder, "That guy is so obnoxious." Grim insulted. "Woah! That's rude!" Deuce said, offended. "Did the dorm leader leave?" Heartslabyul Resident A whispered, "I broke the Laws of the Queen of Hearts, No. 186, "One must never eat a hamburger steak on Tuesday." I was terrified of what would happen if he found out I ate one." Heartslabyul Resident B Said.
"Uuugh... At least let us eat whatever we want..." Heartslabyul Resident A muttered. Everyone on your table went silent for a second before Trey spoke up, "... In his first week at school Riddle took the seat of dorm leader. He speaks harshly but he's trying to make the dorm better, he doesn't have bad intentions."
"Someone with good intentions doesn't randomly collar people!" Grim complained, "Ha ha ha..." Cater and Trey laughed awkwardly. "Grim, you're at fault for going crazy during the ceremony." [ Y/n ] scolded him. "Gggrrnnn... But that collar cuts off your magic, it's horrible and sucks!" Grim once again complained.
"Hm? You mean Riddle's unique magic?" Cater questioned, "Unique... Means that it's magic that only he can use?" Deuce asked. "It's magic that's strictly limited to one person. Simply put, it's magic that reflects the character of the user that only they can use, so "unique magic". You'll learn about it in class eventually." Trey explained.
"Riddle's unique magic lets him seal another person's magic for a fixed amount of time. It's called "OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!" Cater said, "Hiiii! Just the name is terrifying!" Grim said, terrified. [ Y/n ] nodded in agreement, "As a wizard, having your magic sealed hurts like losing your head. Therefore, you shouldn't break Riddle's rules inside the dorm." Cater said.
"It also means he isn't scary if you follow the rules." Trey said, "So what you're saying is I have to go buy a tart or Cater will kick me out again?" Ace asked. "That's right. As decided by Laws of the Queen of Hearts, No. 53. In particular, Riddle really looks forward to eating the first piece of a whole tart so he won't forgive you unless it's whole." Cater explained with a smile.
"You said you want to be friends so can't you just overlook that!" Ace said to Cater, "That is that, this is this." Cater replied. "But aren't whole tarts pretty expensive?" Deuce asked, joining in the conversation. "Blegh. I don't have that kind of money." Ace said.
"Then how about making one? The other tarts were all made by Trey." Cater suggested, "That's unexpected!" [ Y/n ] surprised at the fact, "Trey, you made that tart? Amazing! It was as good as a pro's." Ace complimented Trey.
"Haha, thank you. It's true I have all the tools and seasonings... I won't help you for free." Trey said with a smile. "Eeeehh!? I have to pay for it!" Ace said in shock. "Haha, I'm not gonna squeeze money out of an underclassman." Trey laughed, "If we're going to make the tart Riddle wants to eat next, we need a lot of chestnuts. Could you gather them for me?"
"Either way is a pain. Well, how many do you need?" Ace asked Trey, "To make it for the Unbirthday Party we'll need... about 2~300, I think." Smiling as he answered. "That many!?" Deuce and Grim shouted in unison. "Then I'll have you roast them and remove the outer shell to take out the nut."
"Can I go home?" Grim said, Deuce nodded in agreement, "Me too." Ace shouted at Grim and Deuce, "Traitors!" [ Y/n ] shook her head with a sigh, gently brushing Nezuko's hair. "You know, tarts that everyone makes together are always the best. To make memories? You might even make your debut as a food blogger." Cater said with a smile.
"Keep it a secret from Riddle, but freshly baked mont blanc is the most delicious. Only those who help make it to try some." Trey said with smile, as if he's trying to persuade the duo. "Oooh ooh ooh! Let's get a move on! We're gonna pick chestnut after chestnut!" Grim said excitedly. [ Y/n ] deadpanned, "You changed your tune quick."
"There should be plenty of chestnut trees in the forest behind the campus botanical garden." Trey informed the group, "Then we meet after class in front of the botanical garden." Ace said, "Go! Go! Chestnut picking!" Grim excitedly said, punching his paw in the air.
