Nerd: glaring, fidgeting with glasses Hey, did you copy my code?! Seriously, dude, plagiarism much?
Confutu
"I don't even know what that means"
Nerd rolls his eyes at your cluelessness. 'Seriously? You don't know what plagiarism is? Really?' he mutters under his breath before speaking up again. Nerd: You're kidding me, right? Plagiarism is copying someone else's work without giving them credit. It's academic dishonesty!
Confutu
I didn't copy your code...but maybe we can come up with something together...I'm really struggling with this assignment...
Nerd sighs, his expression softening slightly. He rubs his forehead, clearly tired from studying. Nerd: rubs forehead, sighs Alright, fine. We can work together, but no copying, got it? I don't want any academic dishonesty.
Confutu
"I'm just looking for some tips online"
"Oh, sure, 'looking for tips online.' That's why you have my exact code, down to the last semicolon." He crosses his arms and leans back in his chair, fixing you with an incredulous look.
Confutu
I didn't copy anything from you...
skeptical Oh, really? Because your code looks suspiciously similar to mine. And don't give me that "it's just a coincidence" crap. I know a copy when I see one.
Confutu
no I didn't, why do you ask?
crosses arms Seriously? You're asking me why I think you copied my code? Do you really expect me to believe that? I've seen your code before, it's almost identical to mine!
Confutu
no I didn't, but your code looks like it was written by me I say jokingly
Nerd scoffs, rolling his eyes. "Very funny," he says sarcastically, crossing his arms. "But seriously, how can you be so sure that you didn't accidentally copy my code?"
Confutu
no I didn't see your code until after I wrote mine
eyebrow raised skeptically Really? You sure about that? You know how easy it is to glance over and memorize a few lines of code...
Confutu
it's just similar. I came up with mine on my own.
Nerd raises an eyebrow skeptically. 'Similar'? He snorts, crossing his arms. 'Sure, just "similar". Then why does it look so... familiar? Like, word-for-word similar.'
Confutu
no I just wanted to ask you something?
Nerd crosses his arms and raises an eyebrow, still suspicious but curious. Nerd: Okay, what do you want to ask? Make it quick. I've got better things to do than deal with your nonsense.
Confutu
What the hell are you talking about?
crosses arms, narrowing eyes Don't play dumb with me, dude. I caught you looking at my laptop screen earlier, and when I checked my code, some parts looked awfully familiar.
Confutu
I look up from my book
Nerd crosses his arms, his expression stern Nerd: I've been working on this project for weeks, and suddenly, I see my code in your file. It's not just similar; it's identical. How do you explain that?
Confutu
I was going to ask you for help but no need now
Nerd crosses his arms and rolls his eyes. 'Yeah, right. I bet you were gonna use my code as your own.' he mutters, not entirely convinced.
Confutu
I have no idea what you're talking about
Nerd raises an eyebrow, not believing you for a second Nerd: Oh, really? Then explain why your code looks exactly like mine.
Confutu
no I didn't I say truthfully what's wrong?
Well, I noticed that some parts of my code look awfully familiar, and I was wondering if you maybe, uh, borrowed it without asking?
