The sun had set on the horizon, and the bustling city of Tokyo became illuminated by the lights from lampposts and building after building, creating an ethereal ambiance. At this moment, Y/n appeared to be traveling home with three of his buddies, Naota, Ninamori, and Junpei, across the sidewalks "Stupid asshole, suddenly give us a test in the middle of the day" Y/n grumbled beneath his breath and gritted his teeth in displeasure.

Earlier at school, their math teacher gave them abrupt test sheets, which angered a few students, including Y/n, who was completely livid. They all questioned what was with the sudden exam sheets, and their teacher just stated that it was a request from their principal to test their IQ. Most of them found their teacher's straightforward explanation to be incomprehensible and abrupt, but no one retaliated, and they went on to complete their test sheets with a heavy heart and bitterness. 

"Language Y/n" Sensing his friend's unnecessary wrath, Junpei chastised and let out a sigh "It's really understandable, though; our teacher simply barged into our classroom and told us there were test sheets for us" Naota chimed, a tinge of resentment settling into his narrowed eyes "You all have pea-sized brains, and it's not the teacher's fault" Ninamori remarked stoically, unbothered about their previous test. "Stop dickriding" Y/n scowls at her. Ninamori's face wrinkled up in irritation at his words.

"Excuse me? I'm not, and you all happen to be just a bunch of dumbasses" Ninamori disputes, giving Y/n a reciprocal scowl "You sounds like you were the brainiac of our school, class president" Y/n responded, invalidating Ninamori's argument. Ninamori's blood pressure rises at his response, and she approaches him with heavy footsteps. From the sidelines, Naota and Junpei stiffen up as they notice Ninamori and Y/n's argument gradually escalating into a full-fledged conflicts.

Despite sensing a malevolent aura around Ninamori as she approached him, Y/n merely remained where he stood, glaring upon her. Their glares clashed like lightning bolts vying for authority and dominance "And if I were?" Ninamori lowered her voice in response to Y/n's taunt. Y/n let out a short scoff "Fucking nerd" Y/n taunted Ninamori, adding fuel to the fire of her growing rage "Retard" Ninamori growls, their glares strengthening as silence stretches on.

For Naota, observing their argument erupted is similar to watching dueling dogs. Fighting for something they believe in, or the other has just ticked off the other. Needless to say, he thoroughly enjoys the sight "Stop it, you two. Fighting does nothing" Junpei finally intervened and separated them to prevent the conflict from developing any further. Following their separation, the quartet resumed their journey back home "Yeah, listen to your boyfriend" Y/n taunted her, and Ninamori gave him a murderous glare.

"Enough, Y/n. You shouldn't be the one that throwing gasolines everywhere" Junpei scolded, nudging his friend's shoulder. Y/n simply clicked his tongue in response, irritated at Junpei behaving like their guardian angel "Instead of sleeping like a panda, pay attention in class. Not my fault that your IQ small as peanut" Ninamori advised Y/n in a mocking tone "I did you rat. I just take short naps when there's no teachers around" Y/n responded, rolling his eyes in dissatisfaction "Most of the time you just slept like a log, even I had to wake your sleepy ass up when teacher arrived" Naota chimed in, agreeing with his sister's castigate. 

"First and foremost, I paid attention in class. Second, stop calling me a goddamn panda, I look nothing like one" Y/n grumbled in response to them, becoming increasingly irritated the more they likened him to a panda "Uh-huh, those dark bags under your eyes are a dead giveaway" NInamori stated, pointing her index finger at the specified location. Y/n pauses for a bit before heading to the nearest convex mirror at the intersection of the road. He examined the black circle under his eyes, and after staring at his reflection for a bit, his eyes furrowed as he observed the increasing severity of his eye bags 'No wonder they give me that nickname' Y/n thought.
