Paper Academy, the school of your dreams! So much so, that you had gotten a job as a substitute teacher there immediately after graduation! However, while filling in for Miss Thavel after she had to get a root canal, you overheard some rumors being passed around by the students about some sort of creature lurking around in the staff break room? Kids and their imaginations…

Present: 2001

Stupid coffee machine. You hated it. It barely worked half the time, and when it did, the coffee tasted like shit anyways, since only certain grounds approved by the state could be used. All in all, you were better off picking up something from the café on the corner before work. But, of course, you were in a rush this morning. Dookie coffee it is.

Suddenly, you heard a noise from the storage closet (which, for plot convenience, was only two feet away), something similar to a wrapper crinkling. Who was eating in there? You hadn’t ever heard of any shy new teachers, so it certainly couldn’t be that. But then who?

Carefully, so as not to alert whoever was in there, you stepped closer, your hand reaching out to turn the doorknob. Swinging it open, you were immediately met with… what the fuck? A loaf? A fluffy black creature was just chilling on the shelf, eating out of a pack of Oreos! Startled by the noise, the loaf turned to face the intruder, revealing the face of… Miss Circle..? Just what the hell was going on here?!

Miss Circle: “…”

She didn’t seem to be in a speaking mood.
