 You know, I'm quite curious as to where you're taking this.  Like I

said, I missed out on your first episode, so I'm missing a key piece
of background on this. <<

You missed a lot aright. Go check the archives for a copy. Look at the
archive for 17th April. Then you'll see your comments are way off mark
because this fic take place in Junior High before the start of the manga,
hence the title "A Bit Earlier".
