"Good," Ami tapped the book in front of Usagi. "Now, read this
chapter and then take the quiz at the end. I'm going to help the
others." She moved off, not sparing a backward glance, and began
chastising the other pair who were being tutored. The young man was a
fairly sensible type. A bit clumsy, it seemed, and often nervous around
other girls. The girl, who always arrived with him, and usually seemed
to wish she hadn't, was fairly nice as well. Though a bit intolerant of
her friend.
        It seemed like the young man was always tripping or being shoved
into the girl, however. And usually landing in an inappropriate
position. Which resulted in the girl doing her level best to send him
into lower earth orbit.
        Usagi thought that made a cute couple, herself, but the girl had
a hideous temper. She smiled, then shook her head and focused on the
book.
        "Calculus," she groaned, noting the book's subject matter. "Why
did it have to be calculus?" Sighing, she shifted in her seat and
settled down to work.
        Exactly thirty minutes later, she put her pen down and
stretched. "All done!"
        "Let's see," Ami said, smiling and looking over the answers.
"Tsukino-san."
        "Yes?"
        "You got it right," she continued, smiling. "I think you're
ready for the exams now. But. You need to keep studying, nonetheless."
        "I will," Usagi said, smiling. "Thanks for helping me, Mizuno-
san."
        "You're going?" she asked, surprised.
        "Yes, I have to go see my brother, and that's a bit of a trip,
so I'm leaving early." Usagi replied, the smile remaining fixed on her
face. "Thanks for all the help, Mizuno-san." She continued smiling as
she departed, leaving the blue-haired tutor frowning slightly, as if
something were not quite right that she was missing. Biting her lip, she
went back to the other two, who were arguing loudly and not getting all
that much accomplished.

*Blinks.* She's trying to teach Ranma and Akane. Oh man, the poor girl, I
wish her luck.
