a social media streamer au | scaramouche x gender neutral reader
synopsis - you, better known as STARDUST, and BALLADEER have always been in competition for the top streamer spot on twitch, which is especially impressive since the two of you have never shown your faces. youâve never been on good terms, constantly one-upping each other in matches and getting into petty arguments on twitter, causing your fans to also dislike each other. thatâs until BALLADEER does a face reveal that breaks the internet with his good looksâŠwhich makes you realize itâs the same guy you went on a date with last night. the type of date that made you crave to see him again. the only problem was he didnât know you were STARDUST and he was way different behind the lens than he portrayed himself online to you. should you keep your identity a secret to salvage the relationship or just let him go?
genre - enemies/rivals to lovers, streamer and youtuber au, college setting, crack, slight angst

Jesus Christ, minors have become so fucking cocky and self-centred recently.
It feels like every time I open up a +18 tag or go into an adult fandom space, there's all these actual kids running around, telling people they're minors.
I could be wanting to read a smut fic and I'll see a bunch of posts with the text "minor writing smut, don't like, DNI" or something like that.
How fucking stupid are you? Genuine question. Are your grades okay? Do you need to talk to the school counselor? Take a common sense test? Because I certainly think so.
Why are you entering and actively taking part in adult spaces and then using the "umm I'm a minor, so if you do or say anything, then I'm the victim and you need to get away from me, you creep" card when you get called out on your bullshit?
These adult spaces are not for you, GET THE FUCK OUT! Go sit in the corner and think about what you've done!
Teens will teen. They'll find adult material one way or another, I am fully aware of that. Hell, I'm guilty of reading smut when I was a teen. But when I did, I never told a soul.
I've had accounts run by minors as young as 13-14 interacting with my NSFW posts. And they're somehow bragging about this. Of course, I block them immediately, but I am shocked at how brazen these kids are, to have the gall to do this and think it's okay because "they're mature enough."
No. You're not. I promise you.
Becoming an adult isn't about reaching some arbitrary number. It's about learning to take responsibility for your actions. So take this advice and GET THE FUCK OUT OF ADULT SPACES! YOU'RE NOT WELCOME!
I don't care how much anon hate you kids send my way to try and get me to kms or deactivate. By all means, give me your best shot. But if you seriously think I am going to just let you do this without realising your actions have consequences, you need to be sent to the psych ward across town.

Reblog In 5 seconds for good luck
LINAAAAA I have an idea again;3
So like we helped scara with his traumas or smth in the past and helped him many times that we started dating we showed alot of affection and love to him but suddenly he became so distant and always say he's busy until we heard to our friend that scara is dating someone for a few months without us knowing and after that day we confronted him and broke up with him but then he kicked us out and started saying "I don't even want you. I just used you and you're worthless anyway." Forgetting we helped him get better from his traumas
It sounds cringy and corny ik but this is based on a scara bot in c.ai btw but I added some extras;3
not a lot, just forever
a/n: thank you for the request! this is a really good one and i have a ton of ideas for it! i hope you enjoy <3 one of my og supporters!!
warnings: angst, no comfort, arguments, cheating
muffled cries behind scaramoucheâs pale hands were all you could hear from just a room next door. the walls were thin in your shared dorm, but even you couldnât ignore every sound that broke the silence. though you didnât know much about this man, you knew you had to help him. in any way that you could. thatâs what you would have wanted for yourself.
so you found yourself in front of his door, gently knocking on his door. âscaramouche? are you okay?â
âfuck off.â a weak voice spat out at the wood that separated you both. âcan i come in?â you asked softly, forehead against the cool wood.
a sound wasnât heard from the other side as you slowly opened the door. the old wood creaked with the movement of your hands pushing it in and out of place. huddled in a corner was the purple haired young man you had met five months prior. he was a student at the academia, and very important at that. nahida herself oversaw his progress and achievements with his studies. whenever she came for a visit you were sure to make yourself as scarce as possible, as you were too shy to interact with a being such as nahida herself.
but somehow that led you to see scaramouche in the same light. he had a mouth that he wasnât afraid of showing, but bit his tongue when addressing nahida. you had noticed this after a few of her visits when he first arrived.
the man that once stood so confidently in front of a lesser god now looked so weak in comparison. hot tears streaked down his cheeks, eyes swollen from crying. the skin around his fingernails had been picked raw with his hair pulled in different directions. he was having a meltdown. the cause of it? you didnât know.
you knelt down in front of his sobbing form, his hands shaking with every breath he seemed to take. âwhat happened?â you whispered, hesitantly reaching out to take his hand. he shook his head firmly, âthe dreams are coming back.â he mumbled.
thatâs right. he had some nightmares of his past with the fatui. you had overheard him mentioning this to nahida previously.
âitâs okay, scara. youâre safe now. youâre not with them, okay? youâre in your dorm room far away from them.â you told him reassuringly. you gently put your hand on his shoulder, which he didnât shrug off.
after that night he seemed to grow comfortable in your presence. he wouldnât shy away from you, hiding away in his room. but heâd linger close by whenever you were around. this closeness melted into adoration for one another. gentle touches here and there, promises being made on late night study sessions, until a shared kiss on new years and a new relationship to start the new year.
things were going well. you both now shared a single room in your dorm and turned the extra room into a hangout corner. desks pushed together in a corner and bean bag chairs occupied the space. it was a home created by the comfort and warmth of you and scaramouche.
that was until he started flinching from your touches, grimacing after every kiss you gave him. like it hurt him.
it was your last year at the university, but it almost seemed like it was your last year with him. the shared dorm was vacant of scaramouche most nights. heâd dismiss your plans for study sessions with friends or childeâs volleyball games. youâd smile and nod every time, ignoring the crushing pain in your heart every time he blew you off. you were happy for him, he found a place for himself. you only wished he could have included you in it.
it was a calm morning, but would soon become the worst day of the year. you woke up to cold sheets and no texts from scaramouche. this had gone on for months now and was no longer something out of the ordinary. your fourth anniversary was only a week away, and you were nothing but excited for the milestone coming up.
online shopping for scaramoucheâs anniversary gift was easier said than done, but you had aquired a solid list of gift activities you were planning on looking forward to in the evening.
as you were walking to your third class for the day you spotted scaramouche. seeing scaramouche in the hallway was unusual, as his classes were in a different building, so you figured he had come to see you. a smile prickled your lips as you walked closer to him, âscara!â
âcan you believe that girl? sheâs calling scaramouche like heâs her boyfriend when he has a whole girlfriend. embarrassing!â
your head shot in the direction of the voice, confusion and annoyance pulsing through your mind. âiâm scaramoucheâs girlfriend.â
the blonde haired girl scoffed in your face and pointed behind you, âno, SHE is.â
you turned to see scaramouche with a teal haired girl clinging to his arm. he didnât shake her off or shoo her, he welcomed it.
your heart felt like it was being ripped in two. the scene of a happy couple unfolding in front of you as if it wasnât your lover, as if you hadnât held him every night for the past three years.
you didnât utter a word. holding tightly onto the strap of your bag, you quietly got through the day and made your way back to your dorm.
you didnât know what to do now. your dorm room didnât feel like a safe space anymore. every corner of your room and living area was filled with mementos and memories of scaramouche, of your relationship.
the aching in your heart didnât settle as you laid in bed, his scent on your pillows reminding you of the scene you had watched just hours before.
it felt like a cruel joke. like something youâd hope he would admit was a prank to get you riled up, though that was something heâd never do. you knew that. and you knew he lied.
as the sun went down and darkness enveloped your room, you eventually heard scaramouche arrive home to your shared dorm. you faced the wall as you heard the gentle click of your door being pushed open, only for it to close again as he had assumed you had gone to bed early. he hadnât noticed you earlier, after all.
your eyes were swollen and puffy from the tears you had let escape, clutching onto a jellyfish stuffed animal that he had given you, you fell into a restless sleep.
as the night went on, scaramouche eventually found his way into your room once again. his cold hands wrapped around your waist, gentle breath against your ear as he fell asleep. you loathed the feeling of his hands on you after you had seen how he let her near him, when you knew youâd be in trouble if you were to do the same.
by the time you had woken up, scaramouche was long gone. it was your off day for classes, but scaramouche had his schedule filled for the day. you didnât feel the need to leave the dorm, or do anything at all.
you spent the day anxiously waiting in the dorm, waiting for scaramouche to return. the hours slowly passed by, until the familiar sound of the lock turning in the door broke the silence you had been sitting in for hours.
âhey, (y/n). donât tell me you were just sitting here all day.â he remarked half jokingly as he set his keys down on the coffee table in front of you.
your palms felt sweaty as you dug your nails into them, the burning question on the tip of your tongue. a question that would change your relationship with him forever.
âscara.. i saw you yesterday. with some.. girl, what is she to you?â you asked quietly without looking at him. you felt his eyes bore into your head as he stood still. you knew, you had finally caught him.
âwhatâre you talking about (y/n)? what bullshit are you trying to piss me off with now?â
you looked up at him now, the defensive anger in his words wouldnât scare you. not this time.
âdonât bullshit me, scara. i saw you with that girl. she was so close to you and hugging your arm and you didnât even mind it! what the fuck is going on?â
scaramouche sucked his teeth, rubbing his temple with his fingers. âfuck.â he muttered under his breath.
âfine, you wanna know the truth? hereâs the truth, (y/n). iâve been going out with her for the past few months now and honestly, she makes me happy. she satisfies me in ways you never could. there, happy? is that what you wanted to hear? you knew what iâd say, didnât you? you just wanted to hear it. so there you go.â
months? he had been with her for months? your breath felt as if it was caught in your throat. the world seemed to stop in that moment. you didnât register scaramouche walking around the dorm angrily throwing every framed photo, every single thing that had a connection to you. you sat silent on the couch as he went through the dorm, dumping your things onto the ground.
âi want you fucking out, seeing as youâre too nosy for your own good. request a change with the housing coordinator. weâre done. im not leaving, you are.â
you didnât say a word to him as he left the dorm, slamming the door behind him.
it was really, truly over.
with a heavy heart, you packed your things in garbage bags and your backpack. you wouldnât have wanted to stay in this dorm room even if you had the choice. you wouldnât have been able to live with the ghosts of once cherished memories.
you carefully packed your items into your car, planning to sleep there until you were found a new dorm-mate.
there was no reason to respond or say anything to scaramouche. whatâs done was done, nothing you couldâve said wouldâve changed the outcome. and you knew he would only further your humiliation if you were to beg him to choose you.
blocking his accounts on all of your social media, you made a promise to yourself. a promise to never give more of yourself to anyone again.

on ratio and his goals:
does anyone else ever just think about how the genius society is full of people who could be said to put their research over everything and everyone else.
ruan mei put aside the morality of creating an emanator, of slipping something into the trailblazerâs food without their knowledge, and she didnât regret it. she mourned her creation and showed zero regard for her surviving small creations that loved her. she will probably never return for them, because she doesnât care.
herta also very openly doesnât care. she puts the success of the simulated universe over many other things in her life, including the wellbeing of others and even the likelihood of its success. maaaybe she cared about the acknowledgment from chadwick, but chadwick is exactly the same as her: selfishly following research without a care for the cost.
putting ratio against these characters is actually laughable to me. his entire existence is dedicated to sharing knowledge and making it public. his work connects with people. and beyond that, he forms relationships and creates connections.
he is so so human compared to any member of the genius society and yet his greatest desire is to be recognized by nous. who exclusively sponsors selfish beings who throw away morals and humanity in the name of âscienceâ. he tries so hard to be perfect and statuesque and distant but he isnât. the statues of him and the constant mask wearing. like he regrets being human too. explodes
i need to see more of his character arc. and also his relationship with aventurine. the kings of putting on a mask to hide their true selves. pleas

Veritas Ratio is a lonely man. Only having his books and his sculptures as friendsâ regarding the rest as no use for him.
Up till now, you've been nothing more than the pest who waves hi at him every morning, bringing him coffee every now and then. You must be scheming something, there's no way someone could ever be this nice without asking for a favour.
âDr ratio!â
The alabaster headed man stared at you, even with that stone head of his, you can clearly feel his piercing gaze.
âWhat is it?â
Veritas groans in annoyance, what is it again?
Lately, you've been struggling to teach this subject. As well-versed you were in topics such as literature, history and the likes, it was true that you were above average with maths.
âI've been tutoring this kid after classes and wellâŠâ
He doesn't move, just listening intently.
âHe's been asking about quantum mechanics and I don't know much about the topic soâŠâ
âso?â
so?
âI was wondering if you can teach me it.â
God damn it, he has better things to do.
âThen read a book about itâ
His eyes were trained on your figure as he saw you tense, just why him of all people?
âDr ratio, just this once. I just need to learn the basics once and I won't bother you again!â
He closed his codex and turned the other way, ready to walk away from conversation.
âI have better things to do than humouring your foolish anticsââ
âPlease.â
Your hands fidget nervously as he paused before looking back at you, pondering whether to do you a favour.
âI'll think about it.â
By the time you blinked, he was gone.
The next day passed, you were at his door, clutching your teaching materials as you waited for veritasâ class to end.
He scrunched nose as annoyance rose in him like a tide, he could see you waiting at the window and checking the time every now and then.
âThat ends our discussion for today.â
His voice echoing on the walls as the bell rang, his students already out the door.
After a good 10 minutes, most of the students were out the door as he was left alone with himself (+ those eyes of yours that never seem to leave him alone)
âIt's rude to stare.â
His comment caught you off guard, the corners of your lips twitching nervously as you hid behind the wall againâ shit, he caught you staringâŠ
Veritas let out a sigh before cleaning his desk of the sparse test papers he's collected last week.
A moment of silence passed before you mustered up the courage to enter the spacious room, it was⊠quiet to say the least.
âDr. Ratioââ
âI'll tutor you but with one condition.â
Sweat trickled down your forehead as you nervously anticipated what he's about to say. (Did I mention he paused to rile you up?)
âYou,â
A click on his cabinet was heard before he turned at your direction to get a better look at you.
âThat I won't have to tutor you again next time, just this onceâ
It was odd, a teacher asking for tutoring from a fellow teacher? It wasn't uncommon but it certainly irked him of the thought. You could just read a book about it but you'd rather take his precious hours in his day for something you could do yourself.
You let out a sigh of relief.
âwhew⊠I thought you were going to refuse.â
âDo you want me to?â
You shook your head no, gripping your satchel tightly.
âTomorrow at the faculty room after classesââ
When you blinked, he was already behind you. Was he a magician or something?!?
ââDon't be late.â
Then, the door closed abruptly, now it was only you in the room.
âŠ
The next day, classes already ended and you cleaned up your desk to get to the faculty room.
As you slid the door open, he was already waiting for you.
âWhat're you doing?â
Veritas moved another chess piece on the board, eating the white team's queen.
âWhat does it look like I'm doing?â
Why can't he just be nice for once?
âWhatever, so⊠do we start reviewing?â
You pulled the chair opposite to his and sat down. He didn't reply, only tapping his feet.
âYour turn.â
âDo I just?ââ
âJust move a piece.â
Fine then. There were barely any pieces left on the board, leaving you with no other choice as you hid your king at the corner of the board.
âCheckmate.â
There was a visible annoyance on your face, making veritas chuckle.
âSeriously? When are you going to start tutoring me? I came here to learn somethingâ not some stupid chess gameâ
âFirst of all, chess isn't stupidâ
Before you knew it, veritas flicked your forehead.
âSecond of all, learn patience.â
âow!â
Veritas hid away the board and grabbed all the books needed, pulling out some notes and highlighters for you.
âReadâ
The man in front of you flipped the pages and pointed at the highlighted paragraph for you. Was he making you read out loud? Were you 10 or something?
âDo I really have to?â
His fingers tapped aggressively on the board, his patience was thinning and you weren't even past the first page yet.
âJust do it.â
âŠ
Who could've guessed two hours later you would be in tears, notes sprawled all over the table and veritas shouting at you.
âIdiot.â
He commented on your work before rewriting the entire thing for you and repeating it again.
âGod dammit we're not even past the 20th page yet you're here crying like a child.â
Sniffles echoed in the room, only his lamp illuminating the room. You checked your phone and it was already 8 pm.
âNow read.â
âQ-quantum mechanicsâŠâ
He clenched his jaw, raising his voice at you before you could continue.
âYou imbecile, not thatâ can't you read?!? Its wave function!â
âWhatever!â
Before he could react, you stood up, bag already in hand and walking away.
âWe're not done yet.â
âI donât care.â
Just like that, you were gone.
âŠ
Despite you running off yesterday⊠There you were sitting on that same chair with the alabaster head man right in front of you.
âAgain?â
You bit your lip nervously before tightening the grip on your pen.
âYeah.â
Veritas nodded as he placed down his codex and walked to the sprawled shelves at his desk, his fingers tracing over the books (those books were rotting on those shelves, too dusty he had to wipe them)
âhere.â
He took the book off the shelf and thrusted it into your hands.
âThe nonlinear schrodinger equationâ
âLet's start with the âweakly nonlinear dispersion relationâ topic.â
Time flies by as he explains each term to you, giving definition after definition about each equation in front of you.
âHere, page 24.â
He pointed at the first equation but your eyes couldn't leave his stone head.
For an intimidating man, he's getting quite patient with you.
ââ and let's compute the coefficients, after that,â
You couldn't stop wondering what he looked like under that stone head. It's hot out here, he must be sweating a tsunami in there. Is he handsome? or maybe he's wearing that stone head because he looks that bad?
ââthe quantum mechanical pressure becomes negligible in the âsemiclassicalâ where nabla andââ
He hit your head with a codex, with no hesitation at all.
âow!â
Oh shitâ he must've noticed you staring.
âWhat were we reviewing?â
uhâŠ
You gulped nervously, looking down at the page, you guys were already at page 26?!?
â0 points.â
He smacked you but with less force, though enough to leave a bruise.
âthat hurtâŠâ
âThen listen, don't waste my time.â
Under that alabaster head of his, a small smile formed from the corner of his lips due to the amusing sight before him.
âYou're annoying, let's go over the fluid-dynamical form again.â
You weren't that boring after all.
âŠ
You both were already at page 31, which was slow progress (at least to him, he can finish the book in under 3 hours.), yet still progress nonetheless.
âDo you get it now?â
It was already 9:58 pm, shit. You both got carried awayâŠ
âYeah.â
Veritas handed the book over to you and hid away his highlighters.
âGo review at homeâ you better finish page 40.â
You nod, shoving the book into your satchel and your water bottle.
Today was⊠fun.
As you walked outside, one foot already out the door, you looked back.
âWhat?â
âandâŠâ
There was a moment of silence, none of you moving before your voice shook,
âThank you.â
He didn't say anything back, only putting back his folders in his bag as he removed his attention from you. You shook your head and just walked home.
âŠ
It was the third day of him tutoring you, you were getting quite good.
âAnd how do you do the hamilton equation?â
There was a weird habit you did, you would bite your pen or sometimes click it nonstop due to stress (which you did now, don't do it too much though, you'll piss off veritas.)
You let out a soft hum before confidently writing the equation, no error in sight.
âAnd these quantities are called?â
âThey're uh⊠momentas, right?â
â20 pointsâ you're getting good at this.â
Receiving praise from others came by often, but to get one from the Dr. Veritas Ratio himself? You could wish.
Your eyes were glued at the scratch paper, unable to contain your smile; the aeons definitely smiled down on you and blessed you with his attention for today.
He takes note of this, but doesn't comment on that any further, only flipping the pages.
âŠ
The fourth day. It was 2 pm, 3 hours earlier than the usual tutor hours. A new coffee shop opened in the food court at the university, which turned into the new buzz (the old coffee shops were shit.)
The line was long, your legs were about to give up but your students would occasionally suggest this shop, saying it's definitely better than the instant coffee at the teacher's lounge.
After 5 more minutes, it was finally your turn to order.
âGood afternoon! What can I get ya?â
The menu was definitely diverse, candy corn flavoured coffee? That's new.
âI'll take your special cappuccinoâ
The cheerful cashier jotted down your order, asking for your name then running to the back.
You sat down at some table and took out your laptop, fixing your schedules for this weekend.
âFor ___?â
Eh? That was fast. It only took them 3 minutes to make your order despite the heavy line? Impressive.
âThank you.â
You smiled and snatched the cup from the counter and walked back to your seat.
It tasted funny. Coffee jelly in cappuccino with sprinkles on top? At Least it tasted good.
âAnd here I was wondering where you are.â
âack!â
You looked up and saw veritas in front of you, looming over you with his codex behind him after he hit you.
âthat hurtâŠâ
He sighed and sat down next to you while you rubbed the bruised area.
âStop hitting people with your codex damn it!â
âI find it far more interesting to use my codex to get your attention.â
âWeirdo.â
He chuckled at the way scoffed, sipping your coffee and typing some requirements on an excel sheet.
âAnyways, why were you looking for me?â
He leaned back on the couch, before responding,
âNothing, I was just wondering where the idiot was.â
âYou littleââ
Only a soft sigh left your lips as you continued to type, veritas beside you reading his codex and none of you saying a word.
Though this peaceful moment was short lived as the bell rang, signalling that the two of you had to go back to your respective classes.
Veritas sat up, closing his book.
âIt's time for me to go.â
âOh yeah.â
Veritas was gone in a blink of an eye, what's up with him disappearing so suddenly 24/7?!?
âŠ
5 pm.
You were patiently waiting in the faculty room, what was taking veritas so long?
âYou're lateâ
Veritas rolled his eyesâ wait.
His stone head was⊠was this really the veritas ratio? He had nice purple hair, his eyes, he looked so⊠beautiful.
No way.
âWhen are you going to stop staring?â
âOhâ uh.â
You chuckled nervously before forcing a smile as he sat down in front of you.
âLet's continue where we let off.â
The sound of flipping pages reverberated across the room, your eyes locked onto his face. He would occasionally click his tongue at some parts of the book, guiding you through each equation as his face was close to yours; enough to feel his breath on your skin.
ââbecause its transformation Ï is a symmetry and thus preserves the Lagrangian L and the action ,S=â«Lâ
Veritas ratio leaned closer to you, your hands touching as he got closer,
âDo you get it now?â
You didn't. You were too focused on his face, with every wrinkle of his brows, the tiniest details of his jaw and hell, even his eyes. How could you even focus? With his face inches away from yours? No way. The man right next to you stares at you, tapping his fingers on the mahogany table; he repeated himself.
âI said, do you get it now?â
Like the air was sucked out of your lungs, your last card was to lie but he was smart enough to not fall for that.
âY-yesâ
âThen what were we reviewing just now?â
He rolled his eyes hearing your mind blank out and confused âuhhsâ escaped your lips. You flinch from his harsh tone, as the cold stare turned into a glare.
âWe should be reviewing the noether theorem, not my face.â
He made you solve equation after equation, his gaze not leaving you once as he crumpled your papers even after one minor mistake, âIdiotâ, âDo it again.â, and âAre you really paying attention?â Constantly rang in your ears, you were not sure whether you asked for a tutoring session or a three hour insulting session from the revered professor.
âI'm sorry.â, He sighed at your visible frustration as you apologised through gritted teeth. He started to pity you when you struggled with just the terms at the next lesson. Was this theorem that hard? He dropped his pen and closed the book.
âLetâs end todayâs session.â
A look of relief appeared on your face as he said those words, clearly, heâll give you a breakâ
âJust read this book instead. It gives a more in-depth explanationâ
â or not. He thrusted the book in your hands and put on his alabaster head, making you raise an eyebrow,
âWhat? You canât seem to focus without this onâ
You laughed an awkward chuckle while sliding the book in your satchel, a small squeak was heard when he stood up and moved his chair at his desk.
âTomorrow again?â
âSure.â
âŠ
Veritas tapped his feet aggressively as time past by, you were late by 20 minutes, by now he would've left but for some reason he's feeling nice today that he'll wait for you.
The faculty room door slid open as light footsteps entered the room.
âSorry âm late.â
You smelled different today. That would sound creepy to the average person but despite the tight alabaster sculpture that covers his face, he could smell your perfume and that he's gotten used to your scent by now.
âDid you wear something new?â
âCome again?â
He took one glance at you and shook his head and shifted his attention to the complex arithmetics on his codex.
âHey, what did you mean by that?â
It was hard to ignore you as he tried to mute your voice but he let out an inaudible sigh before taking a quick glance at you.
âI meant your perfume, idiot.â
âNo need to be rude.â you scoffed and placed down your bag at your desk.
He finds himself eager for a response as your right hand shuffled in your bag looking for the perfume bottle,
âI just tried something new.â
âOh?â
He leans over the table to take a closer look at the bottle, inspecting it with a skeptical look one he's glad you cannot see through his sculpted head.
âIt was a gift from one of our coworkers hereâ
There was a loud slamming sound that rang in the room when you dropped the materials Veritas made you read, it was a pain highlighting everything.
âFrom who?â
Why was he suddenly interested? He's not one to ask about anyone's affairs so suddenly, not that he'd care about something so miniscule about you like perfume yet you humour him.
âFrom Amir, the history prof guy?â
âI see.â For some reason, he finds himself feeling annoyed after hearing who you got it from. Why would you accept a gift from that idiot? He's a far better history professor, definitely? definitely.
Hours passed yet he couldn't concentrate. Not with that foul stench of your new perfume of yours.
Dr. Ratio scrunched his nose in disgust as he continued to guide you through each and every lesson, harsher than usualâ you didn't know why.
âWrong answer, 2 points.â
Veritas smacked your arm with his heavy codex and snatched your answer sheet, crumpling it and tossing it in the bin.
âDo it again.â
This fucker. You were starting to lose your resolve but you do not falter under his scrutinising gaze.
Again and again. Another 30 minutes yet your answers didn't seem âperfectâ enough.
Veritas clicked his tongue in annoyance as you failed to answer another simple question again
âAre you even paying attention?â
âIf you didn't yell at me every minute I would'veâ
You continued to write more equations as he rolled his eyes at your reply, his eyes scanned your work and it was okay (atleast to his standards).
His eyes squinted, looking for any mistake but there was none, he gave up.
â50 pointsâ, he spoke in a defeated tone.
âJust 50?â
â0 points thenâ
âOh come on.â
It was hell getting tutored by him.
