Safe test.

That next morning in the club room, the girls and I tested the Silence rune again. To our surprise and excitement, it worked just as it should. We could talk and scream as loud as we wanted while inside the room and the people outside didn’t hear anything. Of course, as per the original conditions, the room needed to remain conceptually closed, meaning that if we opened the door or the window, the runes no longer worked. Also, a bigger caveat was that I needed to remain inside the room for the runes to keep working. If I wrote them and left, they would lose power. Guess I was the source of their power.

Though we were eager to try something crazy with that, the girls were even more eager to test the Normality runes. Grace, Sarah and Alice were particularly excited about it.

“So… Shall we start with a safe test?” Alice proposed.

“Yeah, better not to run into bugs in public like we did with the Silence rune,” Noelle said. “Who’s doing it?”

“Frey said it might get weaker the more people I write them on, so let’s start with just one,” I told them.

“Fine, Grace, you go,” Sarah told the brunette.

“Me? Why me?”

“Because I want my turn to be somewhere more crowded.”

“Well, so do I!”

Alice then spanked Grace in the butt over her skirt, making her step forward with a cute yelp.

“Just do it, Grace,” she told the brunette. “We’ll all get a turn eventually.”

“...Yeah, okay!” Grace said, grinning and skipping forward and wrapping her arms around my neck. She pecked my lips and asked, “So? Where are you writing the thing?”

“Maybe on your bra’s label? It won’t be seen there.”

“Yes, but if something goes wrong, she might have to go braless all day,” Alice said.

“Better braless than shirtless,” Grace said with a shrug.

“We’re just testing, so why not use a pencil and write it on your blazer’s label?” Mila suggested.

And that’s what we went for. The runes were clear in my mind and I wrote them on the label on Grace’s collar as well as mine. We saw them glow brightly at first and got worried. If them shining drew attention then it would defeat the purpose of the runes, which was, you know, to NOT draw attention. Fortunately, the glowing faded quickly, but it was still something to remember. Wouldn’t want to apply the runes in public.

“Feel any different?” Noelle asked after we put our jackets back on.

“Not really,” Grace said, trying and failing to glance at the runes on the label behind her neck. “What about you? Do you see us any differently?”

“No, I don’t think so,” Noelle said, tilting her head in a cute attempt to shift her perspective. “So either they’re stealthy enough or they’re not working.”

“Let’s hope for the former,” Grace said, then turned to me. “So what now? What do we try?”

I had thought about it on my way to school. I mean, the girls were already very used to watching me do stuff with any of them. Making out? That was everyday stuff at this point. Fondling tits? That too. Not to mention, the girls were aware of what we were trying to do. I’d have to try something that was bold enough to still catch them by surprise but not so much to go beyond Frey’s estimation for the rune’s limits. And also…

“Why don’t we wait until the first recess?” I suggested. “Right now you’re all paying attention, right? Wouldn’t it be better to wait for a moment when you’re not expecting us to do something?”

“Oh, that makes sense,” Alice said, nodding. “We’re testing whether or not we can notice casual physical intimacy. If we’re looking for it, it might not work.”

“That’s also worth testing, though,” Sarah argued.

“Yes, but I think we should try this, first,” I said.

Sarah shrugged. “Okay, then we wait until first recess.”

“There’s still 15 minutes until class starts,” Mila said. “What do we do now?”

“Ah, I got a text from Luke last night,” I began as we all sat down around the table, Grace right next to me. “He said the alchemists who we’re making the elixir with confirmed our latest prototype is safe to try. And, well, Luke says he’s going to… ‘test’ it today himself.”

Grace snickered. “I get he’s just informing you of how progress is going, but it’s still a little weird that he’s telling you he’s gonna have sex today.”

I shrugged with a grin. “I don’t mind. I hope it goes well.”

“Of course you do,” Sarah said, smirking. “If it does, it means you can keep working with him.”

“Come on, you know I don’t mean it like that. Well, not JUST like that. I…” I sighed and rubbed the back of my neck. “Maybe it’s Frey’s influence getting to me, but I want people to have good sex. I used to get uncomfortable hearing any sort of sex talk, but now… I get it. I like sex, of course, and I want others to enjoy it as best they can, too.”

“I get what you mean,” Mila said, though she pouted and sighed with some sadness, putting her elbow on the table and resting her chin on her hand. “Sometimes friends come to me asking for advice on sex and I don’t really know what to say. I just do what feels right and you do the rest. I even feel a bit guilty at times, having good sex while others don’t.”

“I get that, Mila, but you can’t feel responsible for everyone,” Sarah told her.

“What are we defining as ‘good sex’ though?” Alice asked. “I mean, in… normal terms? What we have is anything but normal.”

“Something that feels good for both parties, I guess,” Grace said, then narrowed her eyes, reconsidered, then reworded it. “Or all parties involved. If it only feels good for one person, I wouldn’t call it good sex. At that point just masturbate.”

Noelle chuckled. “You know, I think I agree with that.”

We continued talking, getting immersed in our conversation. Just like I wanted.

It was in the middle of that, while the girls thought we’d be waiting until the first recess to begin our tests and while we were all busy talking, that I made my move. Subtle but not even trying to hide it.

I got my hand between Grace’s thighs, raised her skirt while looking directly at it and began to rub over her hot pink and black panties. She reacted with a big, surprised grin and spread her legs for me without saying a word.

I leaned in and pecked her lips, prompting her to get her arms around me and kiss me deeply, tongue tasting my own lips with gusto. We moaned softly but freely, and from the corner of our eyes watched our friends’ reactions.

They were now talking about what advice they could actually give to people who asked for tips on sex. Our obvious display of affection went unnoticed until we purposefully called attention to it.

First test: clear.
