"Heyyy~, Megumi-chan~!" Gojo spoke out, alerting the boy who was attempting to catch up on sleep.

"...Gojo-sensei?" Megumi twitched slightly, before getting up and rubbing his eyes. With a yawn and stretch of his limbs, the black haired teenager leaned back on his seat, pressing his back muscles against it.

"Class ended like, 20 minutes ago, ya' know?" The white haired man placed his hands in his pocket, taking a seat on the chair by him.

"Is that so?" Megumi leaned back on the chair, letting the lethargic feeling fade from himself. 'Ah, the exams are over, it was... Pretty OK.'

"How'd you think you did?" Gojo leaned forward, propping his hand on his chin as he stared at Megumi through a blindfold.

"Alright," Megumi blandly noted out, "even if I got a bad grade, it won't drop by much."

"Eh~, of course, you've said that like, a hundred times!" Gojo spoke exasperatedly, "and you've practically aced every single assignment and test, so even if you flunk every other from now on you'd still have at least an 80%." The man waved his right hand in the air as he spoke.

"Ok? It's not that serious," Megumi narrowed his eyes at the other person, "so, am I gonna get assigned another mission?" There must be a reason why Gojo had interrupted his sleep, he'd usually let him doze off the entire day once class ended.

"Oh, nothing like that Megumi-chan~," Gojo waved his hand, smiling, "I actually got a gift for you~!"

"...What is it?" Megumi did not have the attitude to deal with the man's antics right now.

"Well~, it won't be a surprise if I just revealed it, now would it?" Gojo placed a check-shaped finger under his chin.

"...I'll be going now," Megumi  had enough of his antics and stood up, before walking to the classroom door. He did not wish to drag out this conversation longer than it had to be, but it seemed he underestimated his Sensei's badly placed diligence.

"E-eh? Megumi-chan~, you can't just leave me like this~!" Gojo immediately sprung up and grasped him like a desperate housewife, "b-but what about the times we've-!"

BONK!

Megumi's fist fell down and smacked his head, the teacher letting down his Infinity Barrier for comedic purposes.

"So, what is the 'gift,' be quick with it," Megumi crossed his arms, the both of them now sitting oppositely to each other.

Gojo faux patted his head in pain, as if Megumi's punch had actually done anything to the man. "Eh, well, it's a pretty cool collectible kinda thing... You know? Like the Digimon collectibles?" Gojo drew on, "it's pretty famous too, used by the one and only..."

Megumi raised an eyebrow, watching as Gojo pulled something out of his pocket. "That...?"

Instantly , Megumi had a object pointed to his forehead, Gojo's finger having at least some decency of  not being on the trigger of a... 

"Glock pistol?" Megumi wasn't a professional in guns, but he could tell the brand just by looking at it. "Don't you have any discipline, Gojo-sensei?" A disappointed glance was all Gojo received from him.

"Haah~?!" Gojo titled his head, sulking at Megumi's overly calm reaction, "wow, you're no fun." He lowered the gun, flipping it a few times between his fingers. "Don't worry, the safety is on and it's not loaded."
