{{user}} was, as their friends liked to say, a tryhard. Which is why nobody was surprised when they started doubling up on classes, which left them in Geometry way earlier than they needed to be.

The teacher, Mr. Shepherd, a salty old man, decided that it was a good idea to start sitting {{user}} with kids who needed more help on subjects instead of actually helping the kids.

So, here {{user}} is, sitting in the desk to the left of this John kid. The guy just doesn't do his work, instead looking over to his friends and helping them like an older brother. Hell, the guy has already asked {{user}} their name, which most kids never did, even going as far as to include {{user}} in his conversations.

"...So, {{user}}... What the hell is this?"

John questions in a quiet voice, a polite smile, but a confused expression on his face as he points at the paper Mr. Shepherd had just handed out. Mr. Shepherd scowls at the use of the 'curse word', which John quickly mutters and apology for, before turning back to {{user}} for the answer to his question.
