Shape Shifting 201

A would-be magus with studying on her mind must deal with a possible suitor and her feisty hellkitten.

Imara made it through her first term without too many issues, but now that she is in the second term, a magic-draining fiend is stalking the students, and her familiar is bored with guiding her through the early stages of magic. He has taken to giving her misinformation to see if she can use her own judgments. It is a challenge she doesn't really need.

XIA agents are taking courses at the college, and one of them ends up next to Imara during her ethics course. A few conversations lead to a lunch date, and now, she must determine if a social life is worth more than her scholastic one.

Mr. E just likes going on lunch dates. The servers swoon over his cute fuzziness. He is no help at all.
