You pass along Fay's second kiss to Golondrina

"Fay told me to pass along something to you."

"Oh?" Golondrina says. "I just saw her a little while ago."

"Winnings from a bet we made. Fay won and told me to give you half."

"What did you bet, and what did she win that she wants you to give me?" Golondrina frowns, looking openly confused. House Leontes from the word go, she is, Lolo. No game face, even if she is hiding something.

You beckon Golondrina to lean closer. "Fay bet she could guess my special study subject. She did. She won...two kisses. Would you you like one?"

Roll 2d6 + BRAVERY(0) +2 (FRIEND) to ENCOUNTER Golondrina: 5 + 2 = 7. On a 7-9, you'll have to convince her or make a trade.

"Oh, a kiss? Alright." Golondrina dips her head to meet your lips.

It's sweet and warm, Golondrina is always warm. And you want it to keep going. But there's a low chuckle from nearby.

You and Golondrina turn startled faces to the Warden of Leontes, Barbara Torch.

"Well well well, ladies," the Warden says. If I were a prefect, I would have to chide you for such a public display of affection. But I must take responsibility for enabling your continuing indiscretions by endorsing Miss Woodbine's transfer to House Leontes."

Golondrina laughs. Fearless, for good reason. You feel your cheeks bloom with warmth. Not fearless or even shameless like Fay, yourself.

From the sparkle in her eye and the shine on the dark skin of her cheeks, the Warden has the look of having just come from dueling practice, a reliable source of arousal for Barbara Torch. whose own addiction to the sexual thrill she got from dueling caused her to be discharged in disgrace from the Outside Warders, and was lucky to find a position in Boarbristle Academy, a caged tiger among the young scholars.

"May I offer you two a room?" the Warden asks pointedly.

Golondrina shrugs and raises her eyebrows at you.

She wants to watch. Maybe to use more Forbidden Spells.

You have 1 XP.

You have +2 Ambition, +0 Bravery, +2 Cunning, +0 Diligence.

You know the Forbidden Spell TRANSFORM and the spell MORPHO PHALLUS, though without your wand as the object, the second is going to be difficult.

Your FRIENDs are Fay Applebum, your roommate and lover, also a third-year, Golondrina Redmoor, a first-year in House Leontes and secretly a woman of the Dragonfolk, and Barbara Torch, the Warden of House Leontes. The Warden owes you a FAVOR.

Your HANGER-ON is Master Elbegast. He is not in a House; use +BRAVERY for encounters at -1 (as a HANGER-ON). You owe Master Elbegast a GOAL (-3 vs. CUNNING) to craft a new magical wand.

Do you accept the Warden's offer? Use her FAVOR, and take +2 Forward to HAVE SEX with Golondrina. Otherwise, politely decline, and describe how you get Golondrina to finally spend some time together, now that you've joined her House and are struggling to get yourself in order.
