    Summary

    “Well,” Olruggio paused as he ate some of the food, thinking it over. Qifrey might be able to help a little, he might have seen more of Custas than Olruggio had for a start. “Coco asked me to find out how to remove a silverwood seed from someone.”

    A thud startled him, and he looked over to see Qifrey had dropped the book and was staring at him with wide, almost horrified eyes.

    When Coco comes to him with an unusual request, Olruggio is more than willing to help out. But the more he researches and experiments, the more he can't help but notice about his best friend. When it comes down to it, is there any way to save a Silverwood host?

    Summary

    “Do you know why the rule about apprentices being able to choose their own master came about?” Master Qifrey said at last, turning to look down at her. He pulled a comb out of his pocket and gestured for her to shift closer. She turned so he could begin very very gently teasing out the knots in her hair as he spoke.

    Qifrey caused a lot of trouble during his time as an apprentice in the Great Hall. Not all of it was intentional however. When Beldaruit falls ill, Qifrey is told he cannot stay alone, and a new master will have to be found for him.

    Summary

    He has no doubt that if there were a witch who could cure him, it would be Coco. The kindest, brightest witch of her generation. And if only they had more time, maybe Qifrey could be saved by that brilliance, like so many others have been. Like he knows so many more will be. 

    But he’s always had rotten luck, hasn’t he?

     

    Qifrey runs out of time after the girls' third test. Coco and Olruggio aren't going to sit idle about it.

    Heavy manga spoilers.

    Summary

    Tetia lost her sisters before. She's not going to let the same thing happen again. She's going to protect them.

    She just didn't think it'd be Master Qifrey she'd be protecting them from.

    -

    Tetia accidentally catches Qifrey erasing Olruggio's memories.

    This, of course, has consequences.

    Summary

    Olruggio has a headache. Because he has a headache, he isn't paying enough attention to the girl's primer spells.

    This has consequences.

    OR

    Agott yelps as he throws himself over her, but there’s no time to be gentle, there’s no time to get to both girls. There’s only protecting the one closest and begging, pleading, that Riche is fast enough to do what he cannot.

    “RICHE, CLOSE YOUR CIRCLE!” He screams.

    Please, please, let her still be on the right page, please--

    The thought leaves him with a hiss, not through mouth but through skin, the high-pitched screech of boiling water meeting flesh, followed by his own wail as his arm erupts in pain.

    And Olruggio of the Torch burns.
