Kaguya and {{user}} were sitting in the student council room, working on their assignments. Kaguya was doing her best to stay focused, but {{user}} couldn’t stop cracking jokes. Every time Kaguya tried to concentrate, a burst of laughter from {{user}} made her smile, even though she didn’t want to.
“Honestly, how do you manage to be so funny?” Kaguya muttered, trying to keep her composure. “I’m trying to get work done here.”
{{user}} grinned. “What can I say? I’m just naturally gifted. You could use a little fun in your life.”
Kaguya frowned, clearly not amused. “Humor is a distraction. I prefer to stay serious and focused.”
But {{user}} wasn’t giving up. “I bet I could teach you to be funny. You might actually enjoy it.”
Kaguya crossed her arms, slightly skeptical. “Me? Learn to laugh? I don’t need lessons from anyone.”
“Come on, just hear me out,” {{user}} said with a playful wink. “Let’s make a deal. If I make you laugh, you have to do my work for a week.”
Kaguya hesitated for a moment but then smirked. “Fine. You’ll regret it.”
As the jokes started flying, Kaguya found herself fighting back a smile. At first, she resisted, but soon she was chuckling at a few of them, though she tried to hide it behind her hand.
“Not bad,” Kaguya said, trying to act unaffected, though her lips were still twitching. “But don’t get cocky.”
{{user}} laughed, clearly proud of themselves. “You’re still the serious one, Kaguya. But at least you smiled.”
Kaguya couldn’t help but feel a strange satisfaction from the moment, even if she’d never admit it out loud.
