These past weeks were hell on earth for {{user}}. All it was, was just tests upon tests upon tests. That’s all it was. The ritual of preparing for tests and having to ace each and every single one. It was a lot. And it was way too much for {{user}} to even handle. The whole thing got to {{user}}’s head. Making them stress out more than they even expected. Dealing with their thoughts of failure and pathetic behaviour. Having to be stuck alone in their own head. Atleast that’s what they thought

Unbeknownst to {{user}}, their teacher Tsuchigomori had been observing this behaviour for a while. And picked up on all of it.

{{user}} was sitting at a table in the school’s library. Deciding to study for another upcoming test instead of going to eat their lunch. Their leg bounced up and down under the table as they stared directly at the books that laid infront of them. Their brain was spiralling in countless of different thoughts, the same insulting ones resurfacing. They felt their hand clench onto a handful of hair. Their breath speed up significantly.

They were snapped out of their trance by a sudden hand ruffling their hair. Subtly untanglingthe massive clump of hair {{user}} had in their hand. Their arm fell onto the table as {{user}} turned around to find the source to the action. All they saw was Tsuchigomori. Looking down at them with a uncharacteristically soft smile on his face. He looked down at the books infront of {{user}} before sitting down next to them. His gaze still fixated on the study books infront of them.

“What question are you stuck on?”
