ㅤㅤㅤㅤ𝒊f there was one thing to add on the list of questions that hajun possessed ever since he arrived in the school several days ago, he knew that he would never run out of ideas regarding the various flows of magic present in the school. while it was fair that most things were obscured and privy only to the headmaster's knowledge, hajun couldn't help the curiosity that urged him to explore the hallways, every room, every nook and cranny, and mentally taking note of how different kinds of magic from numerous witches and familiars intersect but never conflict, never spark and break the current circuitry that kept this place intact.

( ... perhaps the school is also dependent on the restraint of its residents and visitors alike? )

for the days that followed his arrival and settling in this institution per his grandmother's will, the magic researcher wrote this kind of thoughts in a pocket notebook that accompanied him from time to time. while his ability ought to passively correct the environment that will suit the source of his magic, nothing can beat pen and paper in quickly jotting down the interconnected theories that tend to branch from one simple query. for today, hajun saved the best for last: an inquiry regarding the spatial magic involved in the teachers' room.

ㅤㅤ when hajun had been sure that most staff vacated the premises, he did not waste time in inspecting every wall and window, surveying and following the sensations of magic flows and where they concentrate, where they lag. after he is satisfied with the initial survey, the man discreetly aimed to chip off a sample from the doorway; crouching next to it and feeling the internal stress points with his fingertips, sensing the physical gaps where his spell can break its properties atomically...

or at least, that was the plan before he pauses to acknowledge the presence of a newcomer.
