Chapter Text
“What the hell is that?” my roommate Alex asked while entering my room to pester me during my working period. The item in question was my latest invention yet: The Telepathy Canceler. The item I need in my quest to defeat Kusuo. Though, I can’t tell him for well…. obvious reasons.
“Just a new invention. Don’t worry about it,” I said smiling. Alex blinked and then huffed.
“You say that like inventing extraordinary things is completely average.”
“Well, they are. I’m no genius, just an average man,” I replied annoyed. My brother is the true genius here. Completely extraordinary in any way. This comment though seemed to annoy my roommate as he glared at me.
“Yes, because every ordinary person earns a Nobel Peace prize at age 18 and gets published in a scientific magazine!” I rolled my eyes at this comment.
“Just because you are below average, doesn’t mean I’m above average.”
“And for a second I almost believed you were humble.” He huffed before sighing as if he remembered he needed something.
“Why are you in my room by the way? You’re not one to usually bother me when I’m busy,” The roommate in question suddenly got nervous and began to debate if his request was even worth asking for.
“I came here to ask you about something..”
“What is it?” I said mindlessly typing on my computer.
“My friends want me to host a party downstairs next Friday. I was wondering if you were ok with that,” Alex began to say as I stopped typing and paled a bit, “If not it’s ok. I know you don’t like parties ever since—”
“Stop,” I interrupted, glaring at him before looking away and sighing, “Go for it. I’m not a child like I was then.” I began typing again trying my best to not type as aggressively. Alex flinched at my tone and sighed.
“You are right about that. You were just 14 then. I apologize for upsetting you though if you do change your mind let me know, ok?” He quietly exited my room when I didn’t respond and ignored him.
And I thought his helicopter parenting days were over. It’s been like this ever since the incident. Walking on eggshells around me as if I wouldn’t notice. And to think I lied and told him a far tame story of what actually happened that day. Either way, a party is fine. It’ll be fine.
I’m fine.
Sighing, I scroll through my email and notice I’ve been emailed more information regarding the student I will be helping. Her name is Y/N Choi and she goes to the same school my brother goes to. She’s on top of her class and is class representative alongside Kineshi Hairo and she helps the main student council from time to time. Alongside she also has various clubs she is in and volunteer work. Overall, it's a fairly impressive resume. For an average human that is.
The important aspect is to know if she knows my brother because then I could also use her.
I scroll down a bit more and notice they attached a school picture of her on the email. It shouldn’t matter though, all humans look the same to me anywa–
I recognize her.
It’s that bizarre delinquent from all those years ago.
The one Kusuo was so intimidated by.
This will be interesting, I thought to myself while smirking.

Back to PK Academy
“Y/N!!!!” yelled a familiar voice towards your direction. Chiyo Yumehara. Your classmate and very dear friend.
“Yo, wassup. I missed you yesterday; it's so boring without my desk buddy.”
“Haha sorry, I took a mental health day..”
“Oh, I figured Dark Reunion finally caught you and Kaidou had to come save you,” you retorted sarcastically as you teased her crush on the chuunibyou. She blushed nervously as you smiled in return.
“I wish. He only has eyes for his fantasies and you, Y/N,” she sighed as you looked away awkwardly. You weren’t naive to his feelings towards you but the mention of it is awkward af. He wasn’t your type and even if he was you couldn’t waste time on romantic endeavors.
“I wish he had his eyes on you. Kaidou’s really not my type..”
“I know.” Not noticing a certain pretty blue haired girl approached the two smiling.
“Hello Chiyo. Y/N.”
“Hi Kokomi! We were talking about Chiyo's love for Kaidou-kun.”
“Noo, we were talking about how Kaidou’s in love with you and not meee.”
“What can I say? It’s the consequence of being too popular.”
“Kaidou-kun likes Y/N?” Teruhashi questioned in curiosity. Alongside a bit of jealousy too… What if Saiki likes her too? she thought to herself.
“Yeah and be careful or she will get Saiki to fall for her!” Chiyo retorted, feigning anger. She could never actually be angry though. Hell if she wasn’t straight she would fall for you too!
You laugh in response to the foolish comment.
“Like that would ever happen. Saiki hates me.”
“Huh? Why would he hate you?”
“Yeah, he really isn’t that cold! He is like that with everyone!” Teruhashi said immediately, rushing to his defense. You couldn't help but smile at your friend. Kokomi is really cute.
“Trust me, he interacts with me way more differently.” As soon as you said that, the teacher walked in along with Matsuzaki, the gym teacher and guidance counselor.
“Alright, get seated everyone! I only came here quickly to congratulate Y/N for having the opportunity to be a part of a program for Cambridge University. She will be visiting their university next weekend!”
“Aw, come on Matsuzuki-Sensei! I didn’t officially get accepted yet. I still have to talk to the person who is supposed to guide me along with more advisors..”
“It’s still an accomplishment that should be recognized, Y/N. Good job!” After the celebratory announcement, most people in the class started congratulating you while a certain pink haired psychic was panicking internally.
“ Cambridge University is big. There’s no way she will meet him,” Saiki thought to himself. His brother has practically almost a photographic memory. He will definitely remember Y/N intimidating him all those years ago. Sadly, he has to hope fate doesn’t hate him enough to make it happen. Especially considering you’re under the presumption that he hates you. If you met Kusuke, you might even team up with him.
“Alright, class settle down. We have to discuss your next project that will be due next Monday. Pick any historical event in the Western world and research it well. You will have partners for this assignment, and no you may not pick them. They are pre-assigned.”
The class groaned in annoyance at this. Especially you. You are currently praying you get Chiyo or Kokomi or even Aren.
The teacher took out the list and began reading the pairs.
“ Teruhashi Kokomi and Yumehara Chiyo. Nendou Riki and Kuboyasu Aren. Hairo Kineshi and Kaidou Shun. Choi Y/N and Saiki Ku-“
Choi Y/N and Saiki Kusuo.
“Are you…” you began to think immediately after hearing the pairing.
“Fucking..” Saiki couldn't help but curse at this. What did he do in his past life to deserve this?
“Kidding me?” You both finished your thoughts and began scheming for a solution only to no avail.
