Enderdragonwriter suggested making the team find out about the abuse Kaneki's mother inflicted so I added it.

Misaki coming back to harass Kaneki is my idea.

Book Shop 

A writing competition had been announced last year and the purpose is to write a complete novel which will then be published into a real book. The grand prize is $5,000.

Unsurprisingly, Kaneki had won another competition and is currently celebrating with 3 of his friends.

"Whoo!" Mark cheered and clapped eagerly. Nate and Emily were much calmer and chuckled at how enthusiastic he sounded when the event wasn't even that special.

"Mark, you're making a scene," Kaneki chastised though he couldn't keep the smile off his face. He walked towards the group after having his picture taken with the manager for the store. Apparently, it would help bring in customers after putting it on their website.

"What are you going to do with the money?" Nate inquires, not allowing Mark a chance to retort.

"You have enough to buy a car for yourself or for a very special friend," Mark appeals, slyly, his eyes glistening with hope and intent.

"Or go for something cheaper like those cute blue ankle up boots with the white lace and glitter?" Emily suggests, getting more excitable at the end of her sentence, and at their amused inquisitive gaze she adds, "I'm sure they'll do wonders for your legs, Kaneki."

Kaneki snorts before replying, "And these are for me, right?" The two nod energetically even though it was obvious they were lying. "Tell you what. Let me cash this in then I'll take you guys out to an expensive restaurant," Kaneki offers and Matt and Emily glomp him in a hug as they proclaimed him as an angel.

"Yeah, yeah," Kaneki shrugs them off, laughing, "you'll have plenty of other opportunities to kiss my a**."

The two continued to celebrate as if they didn't hear him. Kaneki sighs, "You've known them longer than I have, how the hell did you survive?"

"More experience," Nate responds, shrugging, but he was amused, "you didn't answer my question; what are you going to do with the money?"

"Just give it all to charity," Kaneki replies, "not like I need it, I'm well off."

"Hearing you say that pisses me off," Mark pouts, puffing his cheeks out in annoyance.

"Why?" Kaneki queries, befuddled.

"Because your Uncle Happy(1) works for Tony Stark," Nate points out, "you're most likely the richest guy on campus. You could drop $1,000 bill and get $10,000 in a second."

"You got a point," Kaneki shrugs then bursts out laughing when his friends hit him.

College Campus

"I'm telling you I can do it!" Mark exclaims with excitement and determination.

"No, you can't," Nate dissuade as he plays on his new phone made by Hayashi Corporation. 

"Can."

"Can't."

"Can!"

"Can't!"

"Shut up, already!" Kaneki snaps at the pointless argument, "Mark, stuffing skittles down your throat does not mean you'll burp out a rainbow so don't even try it."

"Aw," Mark whines, dejected.

"You guys made Kaneki mad again," Emily singsong, giggling.

"He's always mad," Mark argued.
