[ Laslow is totally not panicking. He's not panicking even a little bit. He is the picture of calm confidence right now.

Okay, that's a lie. He's definitely panicking. He knew he shouldn't have gone to school halfway across the country. He's never even seen a tornado before, much less been in danger of it destroying his whole life and everything he knows. But it's okay! It's okay.

It's definitely not okay and Laslow hates that this particular classroom is apparently "tornado-safe," and that he has to stay here with twenty-nine random classmates, none of whom he's managed to make friends with. He's made friends in every other class! Why couldn't he be stuck with any of them instead?!

He may be very noticeably veering close to a breakdown at this point, not that he realizes this in his panicked haze. ]

[ Bakugo's seat sucks. He was late to the library, and couldn't get his usual, isolated spot in time. It was also too late to leave and go someplace else, so he settled for the only open table he could find. It's in a stuffy corner and there are only two lines of sight. One leads in some shitty girl's direction, and the other offers perfect viewing of some assholes having sex.

The first time Bakugo looked up, that girl was looking at the same time and their eyes happened to meet. For some reason, Bakugo felt himself blushing, which only had him looking furious and turning away to resume his studies.

The second time the exact same thing happened, and Bakugo was just done. He slams the table in front of him as he stands and goes to put an end to the disturbance. He kicks the two of them over and cusses them out loudly.
]

I don't know why the fuck you idiots decided to start fucking around in front of me, but I ain't interested in watching! And you!

[ He turns to Lux, looking every bit as furious. But also he's blushing again and he doesn't know why. ]

I don't know why you keep looking at me, but if you've got something to say, come out and say it!

[Final exams are upon them, and it is crunch time. Nill has less than 24 hours to learn absolutely everything about statistics, the one and only math class she ever has to take at this school, and also the one and only class she could not care less about. She has an armful of books and a thermos full of coffee. She is ready. She can do this.

Unless Badou is occupying the only serviceable study room in the whole damn library.

She spends a few moments staring at him through the small window, having to go on tip-toes so she can see through it. For no discernible reason, she feels betrayed. How could he do this to her? It's like he knew she was coming here to cram. Balancing her stack of books in one arm, she uses the other to knock rapidly on the window. Just the top of her head peeks over the window's bottom ledge.

Please let her in. She needs the extra light.]
