Ahaha, wtf, I'm updating this? I know, right? Uh, yeah. Consider this one a bit of a "what if?" If you know Azu-Dai canon (and why would you be reading this is you don't?) then you'll know that Tomo pretty much got into Yomi's high school because Yomi told her she couldn't. Or so Tomo claims, anyway. . . . Yeah.

The rapping on her window is as familiar—and annoying—as always. Yomi can't really call it 'knocking,' since for Tomo to learn to do something so conventionally polite as knock before entering a room is beyond what her simple mind can produce, and besides, it's not like she ever waits for an answer before coming inside, anyway. It's definitely more of a brisk, cursory tap, and then Tomo is sliding the window open and clambering inside.

"What do you want?"

Tomo stretches and then flops over onto the bed, her hair fanning out underneath her. "What's this?" she asks, propping herself up on her elbows and ignoring Yomi's question completely. "Homework? We're on vacation, Yomi! I'm disappointed in you!"

"I have an early literature assignment due," she replies, voice even. "Every first year student is required to have it finished before the first day." Not like you would know about it, she doesn't add.

Doesn't have to. She can tell by the slow, too-casual glance Tomo shoots at the acceptance letter—it's been sitting on the desk for three weeks now—that she's hit a nerve, however lightly.

"You know," Tomo says, voice rising in that proud, aren't-I-awesome tone, "I could have gotten into that high school."

Yomi rolls her eyes. "Sure."

"If I'd wanted to."

"That's what you keep telling me, Tomo."

"Well, I could have. Who cares if I didn't get in? Who wants to go to that stupid school anyway?" Tomo smirks. It's infuriating, it's stupid, it's meant to piss Yomi off, but then again, Yomi can fight fire with fire along with the best of them.

"You know, Tomo, I hate to tell you this," she says lightly, "but I told you so."

Tomo shuts up for once, and Yomi stares down at her half-completed assignment, frowning despite herself, and in two weeks she will begin high school without Tomo, and she is not disappointed.
