Jeongguk rolls his eyes when he sees the response to his latest comment and writes his own.

my wretched archenemy, I wouldn't count on them getting anything higher than a bonsang with the type of music they make. I mean they don't even sing they just scream lmao. anyway, I hope you have a terrible day and sleep horribly knowing I'm going to score higher than you on the chem unit test. 90% is your average right? Mine is 95%





Jeongguk parts from Seokjin to walk into the English Great Hall, planning to ask whichever teacher's supervising this period to read over his essay and give some feedback. Looking at the desks around him, he freezes when he sees Taehyung sitting a little ways in front of him, already looking at him with his cheek resting in his palm, face impassive.

He's always impassive, as if nothing ever bothers him, as if he's constantly bored. Then why does he show up to school? Why does he bother getting good grades? Why does he bother taking the science route, one of the hardest ones in this school? There are plenty of students that don't care enough to even show up, and here Taehyung is every day from the start to end even though he's a stuck up, apathetic fuck.

It's as if the talk they had in the Science Great Hall was an illusion because the Taehyung from then and the Taehyung from—well, all the time aren't the same person.

Jeongguk frowns as he looks at Taehyung, just noticing Namjoon sitting beside him, sketching something. Probably bored. He doesn't know why they don't talk, though he might ask Namjoon later why he's even sitting beside Taehyung in the first place. Or maybe he shouldn't. Namjoon can have his own friends. Just because he and Taehyung have bad blood between them doesn't mean Namjoon suddenly has to pick sides, even though he'd choose Jeongguk over Taehyung any day. It's not good of Jeongguk to do that.

He looks away and walks to the big desk where the teachers are sitting and talks to Ms Go, who isn't busy with a student like the other teachers are right now, opens the essay on his laptop and hands it over. Because he got Yoongi to read it over first, there aren't many errors for the teacher to point out. In the end, she tells him his transitions are a bit too rough and to try to rephrase them, and the final sentence in the conclusion paragraph is wonky, but otherwise it's good.

He smiles and thanks her, then goes to a different work area to fix his mistakes. It's good that Taehyung isn't here to bore holes into him.





dear hindrance, that's what you think, and knowing you, you have very biased views. just because they're able to reach the high notes that mamamoo can't doesn't mean it should be labelled screaming. btw I get high As in ALL of my classes, PE included :) if you're gonna compare marks, tests aren't important in the grand scheme of things

Seriously? Jeongguk laughs.

"tests aren't important in the grand scheme of things"? oreo fucker, I think you're going insane. tests are literally what make up your grade lmao. so I got a B in PE last year, what about it? also, if anyone's biased, it's you for loving someone as annoying as wooyoung he's literally so fucking loud lmao

Jeongguk walks into the Math Great Hall and spots Taehyung working away on his tablet. Just how many devices does this guy have? He must come from money, and that irritates Jeongguk even more. Of course someone who comes from money thinks the rest of them aren't anything at all just because they don't dine with gold flakes on their food for the hell of it.
