\TUESDAY - MORNING/
*Class starting
*Professor calling out students for attendance.
[Professor] . . . Ember. Ember? \loud voice\
*. . .
[Ember] \at the door\ Here! \raises hand\
*Ember looks like she didn't get a good night's sleep.
*It's noticeable because it's very different from her normal energy.
*Which is true in this case.
[Professor] Ember take a seat.
[Ember] Yes. \walks to her seat beside Cyan\
[Ember] (Cyan's not here yet, huh?) \takes out her mirror and brush\
[Ember] (Let's see how I look.) \raises mirror\
[Ember] (Looks fine, except my hair. Ugh, I got bed hair.) \takes brush\
*She brushes her hair, during class.
[Ember] (Cyan's still not here. Did he wake up too late?)
[Ember] (We should lessen our late night talks.) \rests her elbow on the table and holds her cheek\ \covers her mouth, then yawns\ (So sleepy.)
[Professor] \speaks\ *Words, sentences, lectures.
[Ember] \eyes closing\ (Wake up, Ember.)
*Ember battles herself to stay awake.
*Class ends.
[Ember] \face down, cross arms and asleep\
[Classmate A] I think she's asleep.
[Classmate B] Wake her up. There is still a next class.
[Classmate A] Hey. \taps Ember until she wakes up\ Wake up. We still have our next class.
[Ember] \wakes up\ Ah. Thank you. Okay, I'll follow you soon.
[Ember] \looks at Cyan's seat\ (Still empty.) Is Cyan not coming to school?
[Ember] \looks at the mirror, fixes her hair, and walks out the room\
*Ember walks outside.
*Immediately in view outside the door.
[Ember] \sees Cyan lying down sideways on the hallway floor, sleeping\ \shocked\ Cyan! \excited\
[Ember] Cyan?? \unsure and moves closer\
[Ember] \kneels on the floor and taps Cyan till he wakes up\ Hey!
[Cyan] \wakes up\ Oh.
[Cyan] \sits up, fixes his clothes to look less rumpled, and fixes his hair by brushing it using his hands\
[Cyan] Hey. Good morning Ember. \smiles\
[Ember] Why didn't you go inside? \concerned\
[Cyan] When I got here, class already started. \sighs\
[Cyan] I don't want to disturb the class. Professor will probably enter a side quest personal lecture on me being late, instead of continuing the main lecture.
[Ember] \smiles\ (But we're in college? You can still go in.)
[Ember] \fixes her position, back against the wall, and sits beside Cyan\ I think for next time, you should just go in.
[Ember] College is a bit different. At the least, I think our professor would have just continued lecture nonchalantly.
[Cyan] I see. \turns\
[Cyan] \opens paper bag\ \hands Ember iced green tea with honey and a burger, still warm\
[Cyan] I didn't buy coffee because you might want to sleep. \smiles\ And also breakfast because you might've skipped it.
[Cyan] I myself want to sleep, and skip breakfast, you see. \smiles\
[Ember] \takes both\ \stares at the food then at Cyan\ (My boyfriend is so sweet.) \grins\
[Ember] \takes a bite of the burger\ (Warm.) \remembers\
[Ember] Let's finish eating on the way. The next class is about to start. \rises to stand up\
[Cyan] Got it.
*Cyan rises and they both go to their next class.
*Sits together.
[Ember] Cyan, we should really sleep early.
[Cyan] ...It's not my fault. We literally finished weeks worth of content last night. \stares at Ember\
[Ember] \giggles\ Well, I'm sorry that my world needs a lot of catching up and grinding.
[Ember] ...But! We could've gone faster, if we didn't rerun the boss fight. You just had to rush in, huh?
[Ember] \giggles\ You triggered phase 3 while our HP is low, and all our skills are on cooldown.
[Ember] \both hands softly gesturing the motion\ And boom! wiped out! \giggles\
[Cyan] It's in the guides! Successfully landing that crit would've executed the boss! And skipped phase 3!
[Cyan] And I had 99% crit, too. It's just bad RNG. Yeah, blame 50/50 RNG. \gestures one hand at the air, exhausted\
[Ember] RNG, huh? Well my good luck pulls gave you a 5 star, but your good luck pulls gave me nothing.
[Cyan] It's pity. \smiles\
[Ember] \smiles\ Really? \suspicious\
[Ember] So, \whispers\ want to drink?
[Cyan] \disbelief\ Can we sleep first?
[Ember] I know. I'm kidding. \grins\
[Cyan] So what time did you sleep?
[Ember] ...4. uhm, almost 5.
[Cyan] \puts head down on the table\ Same, maybe I should've called.
[Ember] Do you not want us to sleep?
[Cyan] \grins\ I don't know.
*Doors open, and an academic staff enters.
[Staff] \loud voice\ Professor K won't be able to meet you today, so this is your free period. That is all. \left the room\
[Cyan] \stares at Ember\
[Ember] \stares at Cyan\
[Cyan] Want to sleep?
[Ember] Free period plus lunch break. Yes! let's sleep.
[Cyan] Any idea where?
[Ember] My place, it's near. Let's also ask my neighbor for the concert tickets.
[Cyan] \stares at Ember\ (Her place?)
*Ember uses confusion; It's super effective.
*Cyan was too sleepy and tired to bother an internal debate leading to a default answer.
[Cyan] \tries to think\ (...) \fails\
[Cyan] Okay.
