a tinge of sanity

Summary:

A sigh. Isagi doesn’t have time to think about what he’ll be doing in the next two years in High School. Isagi only just planned to keep a low profile, yet hopefully not be ignored by everyone in the class.

He wants everyone to think neutral of him, so it’s easy to get around with everyone. For example, if he wants a little bit of drama, he can listen in from his friends without making himself be part of it.

Isagi doesn’t expect to pass all the classes he’ll be taking. He’s sure going to fail classes like maths and science. But hopefully he passes it, even if it’s just barely.

Well, that doesn’t matter. He just has to make it to the end of High School. Then he can join a local university and probably sit in a cubicle for the rest of his life.

Fun.

.

That was a lie, apparently.


A chat-fic that begins with the start of Isagi’s high school to the end. With a hint of narration and a tinge of sanity.

Notes:

lolll ik some of yall r getting tired of seeing chatfics being posted 24/7 but this ones just a test so i know how to characterise every character in a short amount of time so please bear with me or ignore it 🙏🙏🙏

also, im not funny. i cant comedy to save my life so this fic may focus less on comedy and focus more on self discovery or coming of age type of story? idk.

the point is, if you like it, like it and tell me abt it! if you dont like it, you can just ignore it.

also this is slowburn
like SLOW burn
like the relationship tag says rin isagi bachira but rin wont be part of isagis life until like VERY long unless i ran out of ideas
this goes for the rest (i think)

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: Welcome, Isagi

Chapter Text

DMs: ??? & Isagi

5:49 am

???: Good morning, Isagi Yoichi!
???: How is your day going?
???: Please respond to me as soon as possible!

6:01 am

???: Hello?


Isagi blinks, once or twice, before going through the text again as it goes through his notification bar. His brain couldn’t care enough to think about it; it’s six in the morning. Nobody has time to read a message when he just woke up.

But does thirty minutes pass so quickly. He did small stretches. He opened his windows. He took a shower. He brushed his teeth. And while looking at the mirror, the text message he read finally comes back to his mind.

The toothbrush falls from his hand. The person who messaged him said his name. But Isagi doesn’t know who it is.


6:34 am

Isagi: eh
Isagi: sorry, who is this?

???: Oh
???: Sorry I forgot to introduce myself.
???: My name is Kunigami Rensuke
???: I am your senior and I have been assigned to guide and supervise you through school for this academic year.

Isagi: ohh
Isagi: nice to meet you
Isagi: im isagi yoichi

???: I know :)

Isagi: huh
Isagi: oh yeah i forgot you already know my name haha

Added to contacts: Kunigami

Isagi: sorry

Kunigami: Its okay
Kunigami: You did nothing wrong, Isagi
Kunigami: If you have any questions, please dont hesitate to ask me
Kunigami: Though, I dont know if I can give you the correct answer, I will still try my best

Isagi: thank you
Isagi: by the way school is starting tomorrow, right?
Isagi: like not today?

Kunigami: Yes
Kunigami: Tomorrow will be an introduction for you new students so you can settle into your class

Isagi: okay
Isagi: should i prepare anything?

Kunigami: Just bring yourself
Kunigami: And prepare your sanity

Isagi: my sanity?
Isagi: im sure ill be fine for high school haha

Kunigami: Sure
Kunigami: Okay

Isagi: huuh
Isagi: 😭😭😭😭

Kunigami: DONT WORRY Dont worry
Kunigami: Youll be fine, just like you said


Isagi rubs his eyes, and he starts thinking twice about this guy.


Isagi: wait
Isagi: youre my guide for high school, right?

Kunigami: Yes

Isagi: ive never heard of any rule of students guiding another student

Kunigami: Its just a requirement to graduation from this school
Kunigami: Since this school is quite experiential with their ways of education
Kunigami: Part of being responsible and adaptable or whatever
Kunigami: Youll do the same thing next year
Kunigami: I also have a write a report about it, that means I have to keep you out of trouble to make my report look clean
Kunigami: Dont make any trouble, okay?
Kunigami: And dont let anyone agitate you

Isagi: okay
Isagi: that sounds like a lot….

Kunigami: It is what it is


It is what it is? Well, Isagi wants to die.

That was a lie, apparently.

Isagi came to school the next day, and was it a first impression.

Everyone was intimidating. His class was intimidating. The teachers were intimidating. Heck, even the walls were intimidating. There were two third years staring down at him, deadly, and Isagi wishes to die early.

By the time he went home, his phone that used to have only his family and three friends’ contacts are now taken over by strangers of a classroom.

Isagi: huh

Kunigami: What did i say? This is a school with an experimental education system
Kunigami: You saw our principal. Hes crazy (dont tell him i said that) but he said this school was made to create students who can change the world
Kunigami: Sometimes i dont get it either, but im surving

Isagi: you mean surviving?

Kunigami: Hush

Isagi: but youre right
Isagi: shouldve prepared my sanity bcs it feels like im going crazy

Kunigami: I warned you

Isagi: i knoooow


Isagi lays on his bed, his hair hitting his eyes but he couldn’t care less. He ended up in a classroom filled with lunatics, and they’re definitely going to cause havoc in school.

But as long as Isagi stays quiet, he can keep a low profile.

Spoilers: Isagi does the opposite.
