After the purple boy thing I got inspiration to animate a random rarepair between Karma and Isogai.
It's smol and I'm workin on it but I hope I can finish it.
Disclaimer: If you have presumed I don't like or prefer KaruNagi, boy are you big wrong. I think those two are cute together and I love the bond behind it, but I wanna defy some common ships and make something just as cute that nobody really thinks about.
Like a what if of Karma being at the cafe with other E Class students and becoming interested or amused with the 'perfect gentleman' personality that Isogai has, and it builds from there. It's something like canon, but not too cliche or unrealistic according to the
show that it makes people dislike it.
And so, I made a scenario of Karma and Isogai after Assassination Classroom from that canon like what if, but it's only highschool so far.
Have a chapter.
Chap. 1: Me? Worry? No Way! At Least I Think...
Karma had kept in with most of his classmates, and kept strong with multiple. But there was an unexpected one.
This year, Isogai and Karma went to the same highschool, and seeing each other everyday was a familiar feeling for them, so it didn't concern them much. Just more bonding time as they walk down the halls and talk.
They study together from time to time, and got closer than before, despite the awkwardness. But that's what they love to laugh about most, and they became comfortable with being in each other's close presence.
But the thing was, Karma had not spotted a trace of Isogai today at school, and he hated to it it but he was worried.
He tried to shrug it off, but his thoughts kept nagging him to call Isogai after school.
He should be fine, if he's sick with a small cold he would've came to school anyways but with a health mask,
After school, Karma went back to home empty home, the silence isolating the noise of his thoughts and footsteps as he made his way up to his room.
The redhead laid out his supplies, textbooks and papers for homework, turned on his desk light, and called Isogai's number, pressing on the name ' :sparkles: Isogai(Ikemen Boy) :sparkles: '.
Isogai was on his break from his afternoon shift, head and arms rested on the clean wood table.
Hearing the icecream man jingle, Isogai quickly propped up his phone, seeing the caller nick name 'Karma :smiling_imp: '.
He pressed 'answer call' without a second thought.
That ringtone was especially for Karma, after the event of the disturbing thing the redhead told Isogai about milk. Shuddering in disgust, the brunette re how much he hated ice cream after that.
Isogai could see the redhead leaned forward, propping up his head with his arm and hand, concentration almost stabbing through the textbook as the red head wrote.
"Hey Isogai."
"Hey Karma. What did you want to talk to me about? It seems you're busy though."
"I noticed you weren't at school today, and I felt the need to come bother you," Karma said as he glanced at the camera, not turning his head from view of the paper. "Glad you're not hurt or anything."
Isogai felt a little ashamed, knowing deep down that the usually mischievous redhead was worried about him.
But he brightened up in an uneasy mirth at the thought of Karma pulling out that torture bookbag again.
"Me too. I know you would've found whoever hurt your classmate and pulled out those mustard and wasabi tubes."
Isogai sweatdropped as he watched the redhead smirk, proudly replying, "You got that right~ There would be hell to pay for messing with you guys."
The brunette chuckled, a small moment of comforting silence ing before Karma spoke again.
"Working a double shift I presume? You told me you're still working at the same cafe from middle school."
"Yeah..."
"Why so down?"
"Well.... um...." Isogai hesitantly confessed,
"I had to work this morning since the money I made this week wasn't going to cut it and I know it. I won't be able to pay my bills unless I skip and work morning hours for Thursday and Friday with my normal schedule."
All movement stopped for the redhead, but then he suddenly snapped his head to face the camera, an.... offput look on Karma's face. Worry is what Isogai concluded, despite seeing it on Karma's face once in a blue moon.
"YOU WHAT?!"
"Jesus calm down-"
"No way I'm gonna calm down Mr. Poor but Perfect! I know damn well that they should've given you a raise with all the precise service you've been providing customers. You're not allowed to skip either, that's my thing. Ask for some help!"
Isogai rubbed his neck solemnly as he replied,
"I tried to ask for one, but I keep getting shot down. Asking for help makes me feel like a burden to be honest, and if I can't get a raise when I know I probably should, what would persuade my boss to help me with my money problems?"
"Who cares if you feel like a burden? Your boss sure doesn't. What matters is that you're doing well and the people who are depending on you are doing well too."
"But-"
"No buts, in fact, after you get off your shift, you're bringing your ass right over to my house, and I'm gonna give you a stack of 100 twenty yen bills."
"Wait-"
"Nuhuh. You're going to take this money, pay those bills and I'm taking you to buy groceries."
"Oh.... okay."
Isogai sighed as he stared off into space, a warm feeling creeping across his skin and that genuinely fluttering feeling in his stomach. It was something he got used to whenever he talked with Karma. It concerned him in a familiar way, but he just couldn't put his finger on it.
Isogai was so intrigued about his involuntary behavior towards the redhead, he didn't feel a warm blush rise to his fawn cheeks.
But a snap sound effect brought him back to reality.
That was a screen shot noise.
Isogai looked to see if the redhead was still moving or the camera was slightly askew, but nothing was off at all. Karma was concentrated on his homework, bangs draping over his eyes.
But he still felt the need to ask.
"Did you take a screenshot of me?"
"Must be your imagination," Karma said without looking up.
Blantant lie, of course.
The redhead had an urge to take a picture of the tranquil moment, and it made Karma feel a little funny when he first saw the expression.
He was attracted to the innocence of how Isogai had his cheeks puffed out slightly, pouting unconsciously while deep in thought. The dark pink blush added a dash of cuteness that Karma didn't wanna it that he liked.
The redhead followed advice he had heard before: take a picture, it lasts longer.
"Okay. But if I find out that you-"
"I know, I know, you won't bring strawberry milk when we study. I didn't do a thing~"
"Hmm..."
Isogai squinted a bit, skeptical of Karma's statement.
But both ended up laughing a bit, a small smile making way onto both faces.
"I have to go, my break is over," Isogai said as he stood up, straightening his bowtie.
Karma turned over to the camera with a serious look in his eyes, despite the smirk.
"Don't forget what I said. Or I'm gonna end up finding you, and you know I have sources."
Isogai sighed, and gave in.
"Fine, but do we have to go grocery sho-"
"Yes, we have to go grocery shopping."
Isogai facepalmed in hesitance of what'll happen when he takes Karma into the store. The redhead snickered, being able to tell what the brunette was thinking just from that gesture.
"Aww~ Don't worry," Karma teased in a lower, sensual tone, "I'll behave~"
Isogai choked on air, turning crimson as he wheezes, "Welp, gotta go, byeeee!"
Quickly pressing the 'end call' button, one boy breathes out as he tries to remove that voice from his mind, and the other cackles evilly, knowing what he did to the other boy.
"I'm sad I didn't get a screenshot, but stilllllll-"
