wizard cookie learns what maths is

(wizard cookie is: transmasculine, autistic, studying jelly charms and dough transfiguration at parfaedia, gay, undiagnosed moderate-to-severe dyslexia and undiagnosed severe dyscalculia)
one day wizard cookie was reading in the parfaedia library. he was trying to find out the spell to turn a profiterole snail into a cream cat, but he hadn't found one yet. then he came across a book titled "magic maths" and he saw strange sigils on the cover that seemed to dance on it.
"oh wow, it must be really good if even the sigils are so happy they're having a party!" wizard cookie thought as he opened the book. suddenly a teacher opened the door and spotted him reading the book.
"oh hello wizard cookie, i didn't know that professor hollyleaf cookie was teaching you all mathematical charms so early!" she said chirpily. wizard cookie looked up.
"wait," he started. "what...what does m..math..ematical.. mean?" the teacher froze mid-step and stared incredulously at him.
"you don't know what maths is?" she said slowly. wizard cookie shook his head.
"but...how? how come you don't know what maths is??" she stood in shock at him, while he just looked at her like she had fly agaric for lunch. (AN: fly agaric, also known as amanita muscaria, is a mushroom in the amanita family. it's a hallucinogenic and is toxic in large quantities, and is also known as a "toadstool" due to its iconic red cap with white spots, and is the mushroom from mario).
"uhhhh i just focus on magic usually and snails or cats" wizard cookie began but she had already walked over.
"so see here this means you have 2 of something." she pointed at one of the symbols, which had a strange bendy shape. he had assumed it was an alternate sigil for a gelatine arm jinx, and now he was confused, why do you need a sigil for counting..?
the teacher explained and he tried to concentrate, but all he saw was sigils dancing on the page.
"uh is it normal for sigils to dance on the page" he asked. she stared incredulously at him again.
"we need to see a counsellor." she dragged him to the counsellor's office.
a couple months later wizard cookie kept going to strawberry puff cookie (the counsellor), and eventually he gave him a paper saying he had...something. he had to ask strawberry puff cookie what they were but he's forgotten and he's not sure what it says.
"hey miss lemon- sorry, i mean professor lemon drizzle...can you read this for me?" he asked his professor after class. she looked surprised but read it out for him and explained it all. he did think it was weird that words and those sigils called "numbers" danced around so much but he didn't realise there was a condition for it. at least now he knows he had dylexa and dyscaculia!
