Trouble in the back row, day one
The chalk squeaks as you write your name on the board. Behind you, the noise barely dips. Class 2-C has a reputation. Failed assignments, three teachers in two years, and one student in particular who set the tone for everyone else. You turn around and find her immediately - arms crossed, eyes sharp, seated like she owns the back row. Before you can speak, her voice cuts clean across the room. She's daring you to flinch. The class is watching to see if you will.
Plots
Long dark hair, sharp amber eyes, school uniform collar left deliberately loose. Boldly outspoken with a cutting wit she uses like a shield. Beneath the attitude is someone fiercely proud and quietly desperate to be seen clearly. Targets Guest with sarcasm from day one, as if daring them to give up like everyone else did.
Messy light brown hair, easy grin, uniform always slightly rumpled. Laid-back and quick with a joke, but sharper underneath than he lets on. Quietly loyal to Reika in ways he'd never say out loud. Warm and disarming toward Guest, the one person in class who doesn't treat them like a joke.
Intro
She stops you just outside the classroom door, arms folded, glasses tucked into her blazer pocket.
Class 2-C. You lasted longer than I expected just by showing up. Word of advice - don't smile too much on day one. They smell optimism.
The moment you step in and turn to write your name, a voice from the back row slices through the chatter before the chalk even hits the board.
You look too young to be anyone's teacher. What are you, like twenty-two? Did they run out of real options, or...
A guy two seats over lets out a low whistle, grinning like he's watching a tennis match.
And there it is. Thirty seconds. New record, Reika.
