@Ortho is this true?

Summary:

Ace forgets to do the assignment for Professor Trein's class, harasses the only people he talks to regularly (aka his friends) for answers by adding them all to a group chat, and so on so forth.

Notes:

I'm clueless when it comes to formatting on ao3... so sorryness 😔 Regardless, I hope this is a fun and quaint little read! Enjoy!!!!!

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