Fussing with the school computer, Taemin was about ready to smash it. He was beginning to get a little bit worried; he couldn't remember if he had saved that latest modification of his document or not. Pressing buttons frantically, Taemin gave up on self-control and eventually just wiggled his arms across the entire keyboard, hoping that pressing one of the buttons would fix the dark blue screen.

As he pressed one button, the screen lit up momentarily, making the tiny boy straighten in his seat. It looked promising, the computer sounded like it was thinking to do something, anyway. Taemin held his breath in anticipation, excited and hoping for the best. The computer beeped in what sounded like a sad, negative response, and Taemin slumped once more, pressing each button meticiulously as if that would somehow help. Getting bored of his project half-way through, Taemin siezed the monitor, shaking it roughly. Standing suddenly, the boy looked around, though it didn't really look like anyone nearby was capable of making computers do computer things. Trotting towards different students, he questioned them all, asking them if they knew how to make computers go.

Farid's face had a determined smile on it as he worked away at a new program on his own laptop. Although it seemed pointless to bring a computer to a technology class that had computers at every desk, the teenager was rather distrustful of school equipment; they tended to use outdated operating systems and old hardware that, while it would still be useful, probably had all sorts of crap on it from the previous year of students.

Almost done... Just a few more lines of code.... he thought eagerly. However, Farid couldn't help but look up from his desk at the sound of a kid running around for computer help. And this is why I don't want to work at a school

"Hey, kid! What's wrong with your computer?" the young man called, eyeing the younger teen running around from desk to desk asking for a probable tech issue.

Frowning at a girl that was shaking her head and simultaneously trying to push him off her arm, Taemin only clung harder, bobbing in place to make her try to come help him. The girl was taller and stronger than he was, though, and easily shook him off after a few more attempts. Running off to her friends, Taemin was not so determined to follow her, and resumed his efforts elsewhere.

A voice called to him, and his head snapped towards the direction that it came from. His gaze focused on a darker boy, and not recognising him, Taemin assumed that he had not questioned this one to help him yet. Trotting eagerly over to the stranger, Taemin quickly slid his hands around the other boy's neck, latching on tight and squeezing gently. "You've got to help me! I won't let go if you don't, I won't! It's blue! The screen turned blue and started making frightening noises!" Taemin quickly forgot his threat to never let go, and released the other boy, his hands holding his face unhappily while he whimpered.
