Ella knew that the school was concerned about her, she came in with clothes that didn’t quite fit her and she knew she probably looked too thin without the help of the clothes. She didn’t have much choice though, and she carefully used magic to persuade them everything was fine. She needed time to make a record for herself here, and she only needed to hide out for a year a half before the hospital in England couldn’t force her to go back- a year in march actually. She had a plan in that time frame and so she was at this small town’s school lying low.

Even if it wasn’t quite like Jasper anticipated, they had to admit, life at Silas-U was never boring.

Still, it was better than the alternative: being a Guardian. At least they got to stay in one place, instead of being whisked around everywhere on cases that they didn’t even get to decide if they wanted to take. The full-expenses-paid tuition on the Agency’s behalf did help sway their decision, too. 

They sat in their dorm room, trying to study for multiple classes at once. They took up as much space as they needed, seeing as their roommate was rarely there--preferring to spend time at everyone else’s place, doing things that were very distinctly not schoolwork.

 Sat at their desk with a forensics textbook on one side of them, and a philosophy textbook on the other, they idly pivoted in their wheeled swivel chair as they glanced from page to page. ‘The Who-Dun-It and the Why-Dun-It,’ as they liked say.

However, before long their attention began to stray, thinking about all the strange happenings that kept happening at the school. Curious, they took out their laptop and pulled up the university’s library records, browsing through the different files intently. Immersed in their ‘academic’ research, they found that these happenings were commonplace at this location, which only fueled their interest.

However, before they could go any further, the door to their room was flung open, jolting Jasper out of their hyperfocused state. They practically jumped out of their skin, and, out of instinct, slammed their laptop shut, before spinning around in their chair to face whoever it was that couldn’t knock.
