( When small, black spiders skittered out of the plastic lunchbox, the witchboy did not shout, but crouched and gave the lunchbox a sharp, quick tap against the floor. )

I love this story! The friendship between the witchboy and Jocelyn makes me squee. XDD And how magic doesn't solve all problems, all of human loneliness. XDD It's amazing, I love it. XDD

Aw! This was absolutely adorable! I love how to the point this is - I have so much trouble with the "short" aspect of the short story, ahaha, but this just gets it done so nicely and neatly. The bit about disappointment filling Jocelyn was so sweet X)

Oh, wow, I like this setting a lot. It's really fascinating- the mix of the ordinary school and boys with magic makes for something really other. I really enjoyed this story. Thank you.

Also, ewww! Spiders in your lunch!
