Hey guys! Hope you are all staying safe and well during this pandemic. Decided to write up this Quintessential Quintuplets story to see how Futaro and the quints are handling it. Hope you enjoy. :)

Disclaimer: I don't own the Quintessential Quintuplets.


"Good morning, quintuplets!" Futaro boomed, his cheerful voice echoing around the Nakano family's apartment. "Welcome to your online studying session!"

"Oh..." Ichika murmured sleepily with a rub of her eyes. "Good morning, Futaro..."

"Hey, Futaro..." Miku said softly.

"UESUGI!" Yotsuba squealed at the sight of her tutor.

"I can't believe I'm actually looking at your dumb face..." Nino grumbled bitterly through clenched teeth.

"Do we have to do this?" Itsuki sulked.

"Of course we do!" On the screen of the laptop the five sisters were gathered around, Futaro's smile disappeared as his face darkened. "Just because I'm forbidden by this pandemic to come over to your house, don't think for a minute you guys are gonna get out of studying! If this is the way I have to do my job and tutor you slackers, then so be it!"

The quintuplets let off their own individual groans and sighs. Their tutor's stubborn determination to make them all study, even when he couldn't come over to their home, was really getting to them.

"Now, get out your pens and papers! We've got a busy day ahead of us!" Futaro's smile return as he placed a pile of books on his bedroom desk where the siblings would see them on their laptop. "I thought we'd start off with two hours of English, then we can follow that with another two hours of math. We'll have plenty of time to squeeze in two hours of social studies, followed by two hours of-ARE YOU GUYS EVEN LISTENING TO ME?!"

The answer to Futaro's question was obvious to him as he stared slack-jawed at the screen of his computer, which showed him clearly that the quintuplets were doing anything but get ready for a hard day of studying.

Ichihara had fallen asleep.

Ichika had fallen asleep.

Miku had slipped her headphones from around her neck to over her ears.

Nino was applying makeup to her face.

Itsuki was munching away on a meat bun.

As for Yotsuba... What she was doing did not bear thinking about. It was only something anyone with a working brain wouldn't do.

"PAY ATTENTION!" Futaro screamed furiously at the top of his lungs. "JUST BECAUSE I'M NOT THERE AT YOUR HOME, DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN GET OUTTA STUDYING!"

All five of the sisters averted their gazes towards their laptop. They were all very taken aback by how insane their tutor was behaving on the screen.

"I'M HERE TO TUTOR YOU FIVE!" Futaro went on rambling hotly. "AND NOTHING IS GOING TO STOP ME FROM DOING MY JOB! NO PANDEMIC, NO STAY-AT-HOME LAW, NO NOTHING!"

The quintuplets exchanged silently gazes at one another. Smiles crept across their faces as they glanced knowingly at each other. None of them have to say a word to be aware of their siblings were thinking. Being five equal fifths, they could tell they all had the exact thing in mind.

"Wha-" Picking up the expressions on the sisters' faces, Futaro blinked, growing nervous over what they could be thinking. "What are you five doing?"

Turning back towards their tutor on the screen, the quintuplets all giggled. Then Nino reached out towards the laptop, sending her hand towards where the power button was.

"STOP!" Futaro screamed in horror, realising what they were up to. "DO NOT TURN THAT LAPTOP OFF! DO NOT DISCONNECT ME!"

The young man's frantic, demanding words fell on deaf ears at the window on his computer screen which showed the five quintuplets in their apartment went blank.

They had completely disconnected from their tutor, ending their online studying session before it even began, getting out of studying once again.

"ARRRGGGHHH!"

Outraged that his work-shy students had pulled yet another fast one on him, even when he wasn't even at their homes, Futaro yelled out in rage, standing up from his deck before yanking up the computer he had rented. He roared thunderously as he threw it in all his anger. It stuck his bedroom wall with a large crash, leaving a large dent there as it smashed into a thousand pieces.

The defeated tutor stood where he was, his loud panting filling his entire bedroom. It took him a few minutes to calm down - and realise what the quintuplets had just caused him to do.

"Great..." he muttered grudgingly, his narrowed eyes observing the machine he had just destroyed. "The computer company I rented thet from won't be pleased about that. That's another hefty bill to be added to my list of unpayable debts..."
