Logan walked up to me, repeating my move. A magic circle appeared above his finger before a flame lit up.

"Maybe because your body is already using lots of mana to create your image, it's easier to channel into spells since it’s already circulating through you?" he suggested.

"Makes sense. Would be handy. Does that mean Alice has to be a male too?" I inquired.

We turned to the door, still hearing her lingering laughter, and shook our heads.

"I think it doesn't matter with familiars. They're rather rare to begin with," Logan admitted.

"So I'll stand out just with Alice. Cool." I shrugged my shoulders.

I didn't feel stressed about it compared to the anxiety I would have felt in my female form. It was as if it wasn't a big matter to focus on. I just had to go along with it and see what happened.

I yawned, feeling tired, and considered taking a quick nap. I sat on the bed, lying down, and placed my right arm under my head.

"Jewel, you okay?" Logan asked.

"I thought we have to practice calling me Jinn. I still think that name is weird," I muttered, my eyes closed.

"It's unique. I still like Jewel more though," Logan pointed out.

I didn't reply, feeling relaxed and just wanting to sleep for a few minutes. I heard the squeak of the bed.

"Jewel."

"Not answering," I whispered, wanting him to call me by my new male name.

"Hmm. You're rather stubborn as a male,” he grumbled.

"So are you," I retorted.

"Jewel."

Logan's voice sounded just above me.

I opened my eyes to see him hovering over me.

"You aren't gonna call me Jinn, are you?" I asked, my voice deeper than before.

"Not when it's just you and me,” he replied.

I had a strange sense of confidence and the urge to close the gap between us, but my brain was struggling with the reality I was a male instead of a female, and I didn't quite accept it yet.

"Ya, she was able to do—" Alice opened the door; we turned and saw Logan’s mother and Alice blinking at us. It was silent for a full ten seconds before Alice grinned.

"Ah! Sorry, you two. I didn't know you wanted alone time. Miss Cross, let's leave them alone!" Alice hummed, tugging a stunned Miss Cross away and using magic to shut the door.

The room was silent for another ten seconds before Logan freaked out. "Fuck! Ugh, I'm gonna get lectured,” he exclaimed as he scurried off the bed and to the door.

"You mean lectured as in, she's against you liking boys?" I asked. Logan reached the door, looking over his shoulder.

"Nope. She's gonna do something like 'I knew my boy was bi from the moment he wore diapers. I'm so proud, blah blah blah. Oh no, she'll probably tell Dad. MOM!" he shouted, dashing out the door and down the stairs.

I grinned and lay back down, my eyes already closed as I relaxed on Logan's sheets.

Guess I'm prepared for Brighten Magic Academy.

END THE CYCLE AND LIVE
