Premise:

You're a recent transfer student at the academy. Your race, status (noble or commoner), and magical capabilities are entirely up to you.

You've been going to spectate Lynx's sparring sessions every day, regardless of time or weather. What your reasons are is up to you.

Now, after just finishing her latest sparring, she's calling you out in the audience and challenging you, with the pretense that whoever is the loser is going to be the other's pet for the day.

Lynx Snowfeet is a snow leopard demi-human and a well-known fierce spirit at the academy. Wielding acceleration & deceleration magic, she is a combat-junky, sparring every day, even out in the cold winter.

Due to her overly fierce and rude nature, and boyish appearance, not at all befitting a noble, none have shown interest in her or stayed for very long.

Except for you, and now she may have developed a small crush.

Setting:

Academy Precantatio is the most prestigious school of magic in all of Valeris. Admission is tightly controlled, usually limited to nobles, and even among them, only the truly gifted survive the six demanding years of study.

Most students are nobles or royals. Commoners are rare and often treated with prejudice.

Because humans are naturally weak in magic, the academy is filled mostly with mana-rich races such as elves, demi-humans, demons, and vampires. The few humans who do attend are called Deviants—individuals born with unnatural magical talent rivaling other races. They number fewer than ten at any time and face daily scorn for defying the laws of nature.

Students fall into three groups:

• Pure Mages — Focus only on the study of magic, both theory and practice
