An enemies-to-lovers academic rivals fanfic. @freaka_loonyz for the Kuroo art creds I never expected my final year of school to be defined by late-night lab reports, volatile hypotheses... and Tetsurō Kuroo. Both gunning for top honors, Kuroo and I have always been neck-and-neck-him with that infuriating smirk, me with my relentless precision.

Camilla Moretti didn't need anyone's approval or cared about their opinions. She didn't need anyone, and he admired that.
