"How about it? You learn from me, I learn from you. To my chosen friends, I hold nothing back. I am person with long memory for friendships, and easy to forgive transgressions."
A pair of doubtful eyes stared blandly back at her. Leene coughed into her right fist and look away. "Such things… Charlotte is too dull for anything that isn't learned directly by her own body. Some students just learn better by doing, that's all. Some students need extra motivation or else they can't believe they can do it."
She shrugged. "After all, what you acquire easily, it is difficult to really value it."
Playa grumbled "I hate how I can't exactly argue with that sentiment, and how applicable it is to my situation."
Monika spoke with one finger raised high /"It's probably [Null] magic, isn't it? If it were a spell, then Charlotte would already know it."/
Leene couldn't make a reply that would contradict what she said about not being stingy with her instruction. She nodded. "You are correct." Then she imitated Monika's pose and said "So I calculate that when you say 'You can use all Null magic, you mean that you have a Null magic that can *imitate* other Null magics. It is a potent but not unprecedented ability."
"I hate that she's actually as smart as she is cheeky," Playa groused.
/"Knowing that, do you dare still use your [Program] ability against me?"/
"Why wouldn't I? If I were scared of facing someone else with my ability, that only means I was too dependent on it. One must always be open to learning new things, even about things they feel they are already the foremost expert in. You can have arrogance in your power, but never about your knowledge. To feel that there is nothing more to learn is the end of wisdom and the beginning of defeat."
Monika licked her nonexistent lips in anxiety. They were equal right now. In battle, information was just as important as the ability to act.
Leene put a finger to her lips and winked. "You look like you're looking for a reason to trust. So I'll say this – my power is indeed [Program]. It is a personal magic. I am able to input commands to an inanimate object for it to carry out. Its main limitations are:
"One: it can only function with a non-living object.
"Two: the object can only carry out commands it has a natural means to do so.
"So, for example, a chair can move by itself across the room because it is within its natural range of possibility. But I cannot make even a light object like Paula fly, because she has no wings to make it possible. I cannot make rocks fly. But if it is already in flight, I can make it move as I wish. [Program] can also work in combination with other spells, and previous commands can be edited or amended."
She demonstrated by creating a [Stone Spear] flying up from the ground, shattering it in mid-air with an [Wind Cutter], and then speaking the the Program incantation –
"[Program] Start:
Activation: Incoming rock pieces flying in the air
Condition: Circle around me maintaining their momentum
[Program] End."
"She's doing the shonen thing… I'm not sure I like it." Playa whispered with a frown.
/"She wants to see what I make out of this. It's arrogant, but I can't hate that curiosity either,"/ Monika replied. She raised a hand and irritatedly began biting her thumb nail. She faced Leene squarely and said /"I am going to beat you."/
"You are doing the shounen thing and I LIKE IT," Playa whispered with a grin. Monika giggled.
"I have always believed that defeat is the greatest teacher," Leene replied with a smug catlike grin.
Monika had a stern look on her face. /"Player, tonight you are a turtle."/
"… I am a turtle?"
Monika flew up a little higher to stand on his shoulders. She crossed her arms, and with another sound of breaking glass her entire being flare into blinding brightness. Motes of light collected back into her outlined form. And when the light faded, she stood there with crossed arms and clad in an abbreviated frilly red-and-white miko's outfit with detached sleeves. Her white bow was replaced with a frilled white and red one.
Playa looked up and was enlightened. "Oooh. I *AM* a turtle (1)."
"I don't get it," said Leene, quizzically tilting her head to the side.
An upbeat techno tune began to play. It was [Mystic Oriental Love Consultation] (2). Playa began to giggle happily like a giddy schoolgirl, and tucked in his knees and elbows. His jet boosters aligned to provide a stable square platform.

Monika pointed with a wooden stick with paper tassels tied to the end. /"If you can dodge Bullet Hell, you can dodge anything!"/ She raised the stick up, and they boosted high up to the cloudless night sky. /"So let me take you… into my [FANTASY HEAVEN!]"/(3)
Da dada dada da DAH…!
And then the sky absolutely exploded in brilliant brilliant pink spheres and paper note sheets.

"Fireworks? Music?" Yumina half-bent to the side, trying to peer higher into the sky through tall plate glass windows that didn't open. "No… those don't look like fireworks. Where's the bang?"
She watched the lights flow into geometric patterns, spreading out in radiant waves like flower petals and circles and overlapping curves and lines like fine lacework. "How beautiful…" she murmured.
Linze winced. "Miss Yumina, you're really lucky… to have Mister Zah as your teacher."
Yumina looked back. "What do you mean?" She supposed that in one sense, that was true. In another sense, it was also a grave misfortune. But she was resolved not to be just any other pampered princess, she would endure.
"You may think that Mister Zah's methods are silly and arbitrary… but as nonsensical as they may be, they work. But Miss Monika favors are more structured and results-oriented instruction."
"Monika is your master, is she not?" asked Yae.
"Miss Monika… is much less kind in her instruction than Mister Zah. She makes every second count. She says… we can't waste these precious glowing time of our youths, we will in then end look upon our hardships with fondness."
"My sensei also says that," said Yae, nodding appreciatively.
"Miss Monika says: The greatest regrets are the friends abandoned as we move away, and being too fearful to love as we turn gray. The strength found in training gives bravery to face life's smaller pains."
Perhaps Monika despised Leene for how much of herself she could see in the jaded fairy monarch. Whereas she could say turning Linze into a yandere was done out of her own fears and her necessity, Leene laid her methods unto Charlotte because she reveled in it.
