This short story isn't 100% crackfic but it's not 100% serious either.

Also, this was inspired by me watching a video over a year old from my YouTube recommended... and when my junior high band teacher pranked one of the math teachers by sticking two metronomes in their ceiling exactly one beat apart just 'cuz they complained on test day they could hear the metronome from the band room and it was distracting students.

"I'm so glad I'm just doing a test today and I won't have to be teaching..." 1chi sighed in relief as he entered the large school building, heading to his classroom. He took his keys from his pocket and unlocked the door, turning on the lights and walking inside. Immediately, he was hit with the loud sound of a Text-to-Speech program loudly reciting a very long list of numbers.

"What the heck?! Where is it even coming from?!" 1chi exclaimed, looking around to see if he could find the source of the obnoxious noise. Whoever did this had purposefully left out the number '1' from any of the digits, making it even more annoying for 1chi to listen to {it would've been annoying even as a string of 1's, unless he was the one doing it}.

"Why can't I find the stupid thing..." 1chi huffed when he couldn't find the source of the sound in any of his cabinets or in any of his desk drawers- there was no sign of it at all! Suddenly, one of his students walked into the classroom.

"Hm? You look annoyed," Shaun commented casually, not seeming to care about the loud string of numbers still being recited.

"Because I can't find the source of that sound!" 1chi complained, making Shaun give him a confused look.

"I don't hear anything. Is it like, really really quiet or something?" Shaun asked, and before 1chi was about to answer with an accusation of him being the culprit the long recital of numbers suddenly stopped.

"Huh? It just... stopped," 1chi seemed a bit baffled, but he was happy his ears weren't being assaulted anymore.

"Ohhh, you mean THAT noise! Yeah, sorry, I accidentally left my Bluetooth speaker in the ceiling. I was wondering why I couldn't hear anything~!" Shaun laughed, not even bothering to try and come up with a halfway decent lie. Instead, he put a chair up on a desk and then climbed up the adjacent desk, starting to climb to the chair.

"Hey, get down! That's dangerous!" 1chi warned, knowing if Shaun got hurt for something like that under his supervision that could be a lawsuit waiting to happen. He didn't feel like getting sent to court.

"Calm down, dude! If I can climb like this at 3 AM I can do it at 7 AM," Shaun laughed, pushing up a ceiling tile and feeling around a little before retrieving a small Bluetooth speaker and then carelessly jumping all the way down to the floor, "See?"

"What the heck were you doing at 3 AM?" 1chi asked suspiciously, feeling like it was just another obvious lie.

"Putting my speaker in your ceiling. My lockpicking tools finally came in handy~!" Shaun giggled, which meant he was literally admitting to breaking and entering into the school.

"Why were you up at 3 AM putting a speaker in my ceiling?" 1chi sighed, only believing the absurd story because the speaker was there.

"Cuz why not?" Shaun shrugged, and he quickly left the room while blasting a Text-to-Speech version of All Star on his speaker.

"...Well, at least I can enjoy that," 1chi commented as the loud, emotionless voice quickly grew out of earshot.
