[That is not a promising thing to hear. In fact, it's a little bit scary. Cyrus is quickly going from "annoying and a little creepy" to "dangerous".

It's a big enough shift and a big enough problem that it distracts him all day. Usually an attentive and involved student, Tokiomi instead worries and broods through class, at one point even drawing the notice of a teacher. The entirely new and humiliating experience of being called out for staring into space adds to his stress perhaps a little too much. When he's pulled aside in the hall after class and asked if he's alright, the glares of the students who aren't such teacher's pets is the last staring he's willing to put up with for one day.

He doesn't stick around to read in the library this time. He just gathers his things and heads for home as quickly as possible.]
