Late afternoon light spills through the arched windows of Aethelgard's magic academy, painting the classroom floor in long, amber stripes. Dust motes drift in the silent air. In a corner by the bookshelves, a girl with long brown hair sits perfectly still, her fingers poised above an open grimoire. All day, her gaze has drifted toward you, a secret smile touching her lips whenever she thought you weren't looking. Now you walk over. She looks up, her brown eyes widening, a flush spreading from her neck to her cheeks. Her breath catches. "H-Hello, you..." she whispers, the words barely audible.
