Seokjin was standing reading advanced potion making, leaning against the nephrite walls of the school, when a scream and thudding of feet made him spin around.

"Yoongi?" he spoke as the boy came into view.

Yoongi, although smaller and scrawnier than most, was relatively easy to identify as his hair was slate grey, matching the colours of his house that lined his robe. Seokjin however stood tall above crowds with his broad shoulders and dark brown hair.

Yoongi was sprinting down the long corridor of the school, books in hand and a scared look across his face.

Yoongi and Seokjin both attended Mahoutokoro School of Magic, located in Minami Iwo Jima in Japan, so the school accepted students from most of Asia. The grounds took over the whole island with the school, which resembled a pagoda or a shia, placed at the highest point.

Yoongi stopped running when he reached Seokjin, putting his hands on his knees, hunched over. "Scary... dude.... chasing..." he puffed out.

"What- who is chasing you? Why are they chasing you?" Seokjin asked, confused as to what Yoongi was running from. The younger one rarely got into trouble and wasn't really one to bother others.

"Broom... broke... accident-", Yoongi got cut off by a loud voice shouting down the corridor.

"YOU LITTLE SHIT GET BACK HERE!"

Yoongi's eyes widened and he ran off down another corridor, bumping into people and apologetically bowing as he continued to rush away.

Seokjin turned around to see a furious Park Jimin sprinting after the small boy, his black mop of hair bouncing as he ran. Seokjin grabbed him and pulled him to the side, to not disturb other students.

"Why are you chasing Yoongi?"

"Little shit broke my broom." Jimin growled, going to run after Yoongi but was stopped by a hand, yet again.

"What- how? I'm sure he didn't mean t-" Seokjin stopped when Jimin began running off down the corridor. He sighed, opening his book up and leaning against a wall once again.

"Fix it."

"I swear I didn't mean to break it."

"I don't care, fix it!" Jimin shouted, earning a few looks from other students.

"Can't you just fix it yourself?" Yoongi mumbled with a slight pout on his lips.

Jimin huffed stepping closer to the boy, they were standing on top of a large staircase in one of the quieter parts of school, Yoongi almost against the wall and Jimin looming over him intimidatingly.

"One - you're the person who broke it, so you should be the person to fucking fix it - and, two - do I really look like I'm smart enough to do that?" he uncrossed his arms motioning to the dark pink cord around his waist.

| The pink cord was his academia cord. Academia cords are a reflection of academic commitment at Mahoutokoro, changing colours from dark pink to a shimmering gold. It isn't dignified solely by test scores and success but by many criteria. Students truly dedicated to their studies even though they aren't the highest achievers can have golden cords. Despite this being known across all witches and wizards, it is stereotyped that the shinier your academia cord is the smarter you are, and the pinker it is, the dumber you are.

These cords stay with the witch or wizard throughout their life and must be worn when working in the wizarding world and kept on the person at all times. If the wearer of the cord has performed dark magic, the cord turns black, and it is said it stays black until the wearer dies. |

"It's just a simple reparo, I'm sure you can do that." Yoongi spoke looking up at Jimin.

Jimin took another step closer, "If it's that simple, you do it."

Yoongi scrunched up his face, thinking hard, "Fine. I'll do it- but only because I know you won't stop bothering me until I agree," he sighed.

Jimin grinned in victory.

"Okay, first, what type of broom is it?" Yoongi said, retrieving his wand from his robe pocket. His wand was made from chestnut wood, with a unicorn hair core and was a small 10".

"It's a Nimbus 6000," Jimin spoke proudly.

A sigh escaped Yoongi's lips as he replaced his wand, "I'm sorry, but a Nimbus can't be repaired."

"What?"

"They're unfixable.. didn't you get told when you bought it in the first place?"

Jimin recrossed his arms defensively and furrowed his brows "Well... not really... but that doesn't matter! Surely, you can just break the supposed 'unfixable' charm and then use reparo?"

"Do you not know how difficult that is? That's high, high level magic."

"- and by the colour of your cord, you can do that high, high level magic" Jimin spoke mockingly.

Yoongi dropped his head in defeat, "fine, I'll do some research and try my best - but don't expect results."
