you were at college, as usual. nothing special. a boring day with a boring lecture and a boring atmosphere. at least your professor was attempting to be interesting, which was nice. you could always appreciate a professor who tried.

you suddenly felt something touch your fingertips, which had been resting on your desk, making you jolt. you looked up to see a small piece of paper touching your hand—a 3x3 grid with an O in one corner.

you looked to your right and found your classmate, tiramisu, grinning at you. ... alright, so he wanted to play tic tac toe, huh?

you grabbed your pen to mark down your X.
