Chapter Text
Philza walks into the clean classroom, a large coffee gripped in his left hand. Summer was nice as usual, but of course he had to go back to his job as an instructor at SMP Academy. He looked at the neatly arranged desks, 17 of them to be exact. He was waiting for them to look like trash, and probably half destroyed by uncontrolled quirks, by the end of the year like usual though.
The desks were spaced out nicely. Four rows and columns of desks, with the odd 17th desk sticking out at the back middle. It mildly annoyed him with that odd desk not fitting the arrangement, but the 17th student would need a desk.
Philza sat down at his desk, looking over the files of his new students. He had exactly two hours until the classroom would be full. He knows he wants to go over the school rules and explain what the year will look like. Maybe even have them test out their quirks with some demonstrations.
Philza looked up from his papers at a knock on the door. Probably the head director wanting to go over something with him. He sighs, leaning back in his desk chair. He hears a satisfying crack and ruffles the feathers of his wings. He goes over to the door and walks out with the shorter man. Praying this year will be ok.
The winged man slowly heads to his room after two hours of speaking with the director and helping a few other instructors set up for their first day. The bell that signifies the starting of his class had rung minutes ago but he doesn’t mind. As long as the room he left was not in shambles yet he would be fine.
As soon as he got in front of the door he could be the weird screams of children. He tucked his dark wings in against his back, not wanting to embarrassingly stop himself because his wings don’t fit through the door.
He swung open the door and his face immediately fell. He took a moment to close his eyes and take a deep breath, before walking over to his desk at the front. When he closed the door behind him most of the room went silent, but a few people didn't seem to get the hint.
“Everyone shut up!” A boy with large curled ram horns said. Philza recognized him from his file as J.Schlatt.
A boy with curly, fluffy brown hair that's peaking out from underneath a red beanie speaks up. “But why should I?” Philza sighed at who he assumed was Wilbur.
“Would anyone like to explain why the class is like this?” Philza asked, head in his hand.
Philza sees multiple heads look back at a blonde, lanky kid.
“Why you lookin' at me?!” The boy shouts.
“Tommy right?” Philza asked. The boy nodded.
“Would you like to explain?” Philza said. Tommy immediately rose from his seat, ready.
“I blame that green freak!” Tommy exclaimed.
“Huh?” The short boy next to him said quietly. Tommy immediately looked down at him.
“Oh no, not you Tubbo. That bitch!” Tommy said, pointing at a boy to his right, in front a half pitch black, half paper white boy.
“What are you talking about Tommy?” The boy with a smiley face mask strapped to his head asked back.
“What am I talking about?! What are you talking about?!” Tommy shouted.
“Uhhh, I was just sitting down?” The boy said.
“Excuses!” Tubbo said now also rising from his chair.
“Uhh guys?” The half and half boy asked from his seat.
“Ok everyone calm down. Just- Go around, say your name, quirk, and why in the world your seat is the way it is.” Philza said. He sees Tommy open his mouth but quickly interjects. “You! You can go first. Then the person next to you can go.” Philza explained pointing to the boy in the front left of the classroom.
“Oh. Oh! Ok! I’m Karl, and my quirk is called Item Travel. I can open up a tiny portal that can transfer manmade items into the future. Nothing organic though! Also I don’t feel comfortable throwing things back in time.” Karl stated.
“Ok. And your seat?” Philza asked.
“Oh! Cause fiancé’s!” Karl said looking at the men next to him and behind him.
“Yep! I’m one of them! I’m Quackity! My quirk is Shape Shift, it’s where whoever I touch I can get a physical trait of theirs. And I’m here cause Karl and Sapnap exist!” Quackity stated.
Then the next boy rose from his seat. “Names Schlatt. Quirk, taxes. I’m here for reasons.” Schlatt then sits back down quickly.
The boy slightly off center but still behind Schlatt then stood up. “Um, I’m Eret. My quirk is Blinding. If I look at someone close to me I can blind them up to two minutes. I even found out that I could change the color of light they see when they are blinded so if you see flashing rainbow lights you know which gay it is. Also the reason why I’m sitting is because of the Bi behind me.” Eret stated.
Then the short, brown haired boy next to Eret started talking. “I’m Skeppy! My quirk is Diamond Form. I can make parts of my body into diamonds. And I’m here because-“ Skeppy then pointed at the boy that was right up against his desk.
“I’m Bad, please don’t question my name. Uh, my quirk is called ummm Hell Spawn. Practically. I’m really strong, fast, I’m not affected by fire, and I don’t really need to sleep or eat. And yeah, uhh Skeppy!” Bad said with a slight giggle.
Then the boy with the bandana tied around his to keep his hair up next to him started speaking. “Hey, I’m Sapnap. My quirk is Flammable Touch. Practically whatever I touch can burst into flames. And then yeah, my lovely Karl and Quackity sit here, so yeah.” Sapnap said. Sapnap then looked back at the boy behind him.
The masked man stood up and said “I’m Dream, my quirk is Nightmare. Basically if I touch someone I can see their worst fear, and if I am able to become the fear I can do that. So if someone’s afraid of clowns I can become one but not heights. So don’t ask stupid questions like that. And I’m here because of George.”
The boy next to him also stood up. “That would be me. I’m George, and my quirk is Tired. Basically if I touch someone I can erase their energy, but after too many people I also start to lose mine. And yeah I’m just here because of my friends!”
Philza heard Sapnap mutter “Boyfriend,” and George immediately started blushing.
Then the boy with a crown coughed, trying to divert attention towards him. “I’m Techno, and I’m uhh, quirkless. And I’m here also for reasons.” Techno stated, nodding over to Schlatt. Schlatt nodded back with a glare.
“Ok! Well I’m Puffy!” The girl next to Techno exclaimed. “My quirk is Sheep Hair. Basically I can grow my hair automatically and do random stuff with it. And I’m here because, uhh well according to Eret is because I’m Bi, so yeah.”
Then the short, pink-haired girl behind Puffy spoke up.
“Hi! I’m Niki, and my quirk is Sweet Spawn! Basically I can make any baked good appear. And I’m just here because my friends are sitting here, and I mean I’m also Bi.” Nikki said with a quiet laugh. Another laugh arose next to her.
“Well my name is Wilbur Soot, and my quirk is Rising Music. Whenever I start to sing I can summon up to ten souls. Although I prefer to also play my guitar at the same time. And I’m here as a shield to protect Tommy from Dream. So that’s why me and Niki have a whole random row!” Wilbur exclaimed, gesturing to the empty space around him and Niki.
Then a boy with fluffy fox ears started talking. “Well I’m Fundy. My quirk is Animal Communication. I literally just talk to animals. And also I just sat here because my friends are here, I didn’t know you needed to be Bi.” Fundy said with a laugh.
“Well you all know that I’m Tommy! I’m quirkless, and I hate Dream!” Although none of them could see it due to the mask, everyone could feel the eyeroll come from Dream at Tommy's statement.
“And I’m Tubbo! My quirk is Insect! I basically can control only insects and if I have enough of the same one around me I can take traits from them. And I’m here because Tommy and Ranboo!” Tubbo shouted happily.
Then the last person started talking. “I’m Ranboo, and my quirk is Eye Shift. It’s just whenever I make eye contact with someone I can change how small or big I am. And I’m here because I know Tubbo."
Philza scanned over the group, making sure to note everyone's name in his mind, and ensuring that all of them had spoken up.
“Ok, thank you. That explains at least… Something.” Philza stated.
“No problem.” Wilbur said with a grin.
“Uhhh, yes. Ok. Thank you Wil.” Philza said. “Now onto things that are important. You all-“ Philza immediately groaned as the bell to the next class rang. He just got up and walked out the door, coffee in hand.
All the students hear a distinct groan and a "Fuck" come from the instructor from outside the door. He turned and came back into the room.
"Okay, quickly before you go to your other class, I would like to tell you all that I'm the instructor overseeing your group for dorms. So after your other classes you need to meet me back here so I can get you to your dorm arrangements. Thank you, and leave before you're late".
Phil watched as they all move to leave the room. He held his head in his hands as he sat at his desk. He sighed, running a hand through his hair. He held hope that this year could turn out well, and not a complete shit show.
