"Mhmm." Ciaran set her owl down on her desk and started petting it gently with a soft sigh. She already pretty much knew this stuff, so paying attention to such a boring class wasn't something she planned to do.

Knox attempted to be attentive In the class but he kept getting distracted by different things in the class at multiple points knox had to stop himself from examining Ciaran and her owl along with other classmates

Ciaran cooed softly at the owl throughout the class, her ears twitching a bit whenever she heard an unusual noise. Thankfully for Knox, she didn't seem to notice him, her focus being on the owl for now.

(I fell asleep)
he somehow did get some information out of the class it was talking about the how magic worked in the world around us but he didn’t get much more than that. He stared down the rows looking at all the different animals and faces looking and noticing random details. For example there was a boy with glasses and shaggy blond hair with a lizard on his shoulder and there were many other students

Ciaran got up and gathered her things once the class was over, chirping softly at her owl to coax it back onto her shoulder. Once it was on, she weaved through the desks to leave the room.

Knox quickly packed his stuff up again and grabbed his pencil from his desk and slotted it into his bags. He then began to exit the room as well and looked down at his schedule to see what was next for today

Ciaran checked her schedule for a moment and then was heading off to her next class, her tail swaying behind her with every step she took.

(May I say that is adorable)
“Hmmm, seems like I’m going room 202 next” he looked around hoping he could find something that could direct him he seemed to be on the first level do to the different rooms having ones at the beginning as he got farther from his own classroom he noticed that Cairan was in front of him he looked At her brown fluffy tail i wonder what it would feel like he mused his hand was about an inch away when he noticed he shook his head vigorously and continued to look around for where his next class would be

Ciaran paused to look back down at her schedule and glanced around, humming softly to herself. Soon, she seemed to gain some level of understanding from her short pause and continued on, eventually turning into another classroom.

Knox turned into his classroom and looked around it seemed to be similar to the last one but instead it had more open windows and was brighter overall he was still adjusting to this place he wondered what this class would entail

Ciaran glanced over from her seat and noticed Knox, groaning softly when she did so. She shook her head a bit and turned her head back to the teacher, who promptly announced that they were doing a lab and were being assigned partners to do it with.

Knox awkwardly looked around hoping he could see her maybe she could be his partner Knox looked over and saw Cairan sitting with his owl and gave them an awkward waved to her. The teacher explained how they would have to work with there partners to create a potion this excited Knox and he started to rapidly look around trying to hide his excitement which he wasn’t the best at

The teacher went through the list of students after explaining the assignment and started randomly pairing people up. Eventually, she got to Ciaran and paired her up with Knox. Fantastic…

“Hello again” she seemed to be disappointed in there pairing for the assignment “have you ever done anything like this before? I know a little about it from my own experiments from back home with different roots and ingredients” he spoke in a nervous but determined tone he hoped he could strike up conversation with her or something

"Yeah, we do assignments like this pretty often." Ciaran got to her feet and headed over to a cauldron in the back of the classroom. "Here's the instructions. You can go fetch ingredients."

“You got it!” He walked over to a few cubbards his class was culminated around and slowly read the note 2 lines of boar’s tongue, 5 grams root of ginger, 3 grams frog spawn, and a pinch of alchemic powder he searched around the cabinet and looked for every ingredient and brought it back to the table he hoped he got everything right “here!” He sat them down on a little end table next to the cauldron and then looked at Cairan, Knox looked into her eyes he hadn’t gotten a good look at them before their deep blue entrances him for a moment like and endless ocean along with lighter flecks through her eyes he just stood there silent for a moment

"Thanks." Ciaran accepted the ingredients from Knox and looked at the instructions before carefully adding them to the cauldron. "Alright… um…" She knelt down beside the cauldron and turned up the heat, but she fell backwards with a sharp hiss of pain after a second. It seemed like she'd burned herself on the flames beneath the cauldron.

He snapped out of his trance “Woah are you okay!” He spoke with a large amount of urgency He hopped down to her side and grasped her hand “did you burn yourself?” He held her hand semi close to his face inspecting the burn the burn wouldn’t be to bad he suddenly noticed how soft the skin of her hands were

"I'm fine." Ciaran pulled her hand away from Knox with a soft huff and ran it under the cold water. After she dried it off, she summoned some bandages to wrap around her hand. "Let's just keep going."

“Hey, let me take over” he pushed Cairan a little bit over And peaked down at the instructions “ I’d rather not see you get hurt” he started to add in the line of board tongue “ could you stir clockwise while I cut the ginger root the instructions made sense unlike the class before where he could just barely understand the lesson

Ciaran rolled her eyes and reluctantly did as she was instructed, starting to stir the cauldron. "I'm fine. I can handle myself perfectly well, you know. I can still do it. It's not like I don't get burns all the time…"

He picked up the knife and started to cut the root with a quick proficiency “ you see I have been experimenting with potions for a while that’s what lead me to this school”, now” he said with a calm concern “what do you mean by it’s not like I don’t get burns all the time..” he looked over at her and scooped up the extra ginger
