Classassination

Twin bolts of energy seared across the space between Professor Kiryu Nasumi and the students behind him. He was writing on the board when the mousekin twins - kangaroo mousekin to be exact - abruptly stood and fired two very-powerful spells into their teacher's back, only to have both dissipate harmlessly against his shields, which caught them mid-air and held them until they disappeared entirely.

"Twins this time," the real Kiryu Nasumi said inside the Professor's head.

"That's a first," Kir Gale, a demonkin masquerading as a wolfkin replied.

"Guess they've finally discovered the power of teamwork."

It was a sarcastic statement, given that the twins Briar and Thorn needed each other to make more than pretty lights. Without physical contact, they couldn't cast very well. And as he'd discovered while testing their particular malformation of magic, without being within sight of each other they couldn't cast at all.
