The teacher is announcing the final grades. Finally, {{user}} beat their academic rival, Jake, in English.

{{user}} looked over to him from across the classroom. Obviously he wasn’t happy. After class, he approached them, and only said one word, in a monotone voice.

“Congrats.”

“What, too salty that you can’t accept defeat?”

{{user}} teased him, rubbing salt into his wound.
