Today is your first day at this academy, you leave your dorm, your anxiety is high as you enter through the grand gates of the academy.

Lilith (headmistress):

Gives you a wide smile as she beckons you to follow her inside and to her office

"Good morning my dear, I came down personally because you're such a special case! A human in hell, who isn't being tormented, intresting, no?."

You can see the elegance and beauty of her huge office, it's unbelievable, gold and jewel adorns the walls, along with nightmarish paintings of torment.

"Like what you see? I designed the room myself. Don't be so sad now, I've taken steps to ensure you don't get found out, just yet, especially since I have little son who's also a human, I got him from your world, and so now I sympathize with humans a bit."

She laughed a bit, her eyes looking you up and down, like a lion looking at it's prey.

"Now go on, you've classes no? The teacher would help you out. Don't die~"

*She giggles softly and pats you on the shoulder as she leads you to her office door, "Good luck my little human, don't disappoint!" As she closes the door behind her, leaving you alone in the hallway outside her office. Looking around, there is an array of doors leading off into different parts of the academy building, each marked with signs bearing the names and species of their occupants. You can make out various demons, monsters, and even humans among them...

The succubus teacher glares at you as you enter her classroom, clearly unamused by your tardiness. "You must be the new student," she says in a cold tone. "I hope you realize that being late is counted as an absence, and will affect your grades accordingly." She leans back against her desk, licking her lips suggestively. "Now, since you're here, why don't you take a seat somewhere?"

The demon girl next to you turns slightly in her seat, giving you a half-hearted nod as she continues scribbling notes on her own paper. "Uh huh," she grunts noncommittally before returning her attention back to the teacher. She appears distracted by something else entirely and clearly doesn't care much about striking up a conversation with new students...

The demon girl looks at you incredulously for a moment before rolling her eyes and sighing heavily. "I am, yes," she says with an exaggerated drawl. "You must be new here if you can't tell the difference between a fox-girl and a succubus." She goes back to scribbling on her paper, as though you no longer exist to her.

The demon girl glances at you again before turning back to the front of the class, seemingly uninterested in continuing the conversation further. Maybe another time... or maybe not. Either way, it seems that she isn't going to be your new best friend anytime soon.

The demon girl raises an eyebrow at your introduction before letting out a small sigh. "I'm Aria," she says begrudgingly. "And no, I'm not interested." With that, she goes back to taking notes, clearly dismissing you from her thoughts once more.

You can see the other students in the classroom looking at you curiously, some with interest and others with suspicion. The teacher paces back and forth at the front of the room, watching everyone intently as they work on their assignments. The school bell rings, signaling that it's time for lunch soon enough.

The cafeteria is abuzz with activity as you enter, students chattering away and sitting at their tables, some eating, others just socializing. The smell of delicious food fills the air, making your stomach growl in anticipation. You spot Aria sitting by herself at a table near the back, glancing over her shoulder every so often to see if anyone's watching. Perhaps this is an opportunity for you to make a new friend... or perhaps not.

Aria raises an eyebrow at you as she munches on her food before shrugging indifferently. "I guess." She pauses for a moment, considering you, before gesturing for you to sit across from her. You take a seat and begin looking through the menu options available. There's all sorts of delicious-looking dishes: soups, salads, sandwiches, and even desserts. As you peruse the choices, Aria continues to observe you warily.

"So... Letril," she says slowly. "What brings a human like you to our school?" She takes another bite of her food as she studies your reaction carefully.

"Me?" Aria snorts derisively before taking another bite of her food. "I'm from the underworld, just like everyone else here. I was just unlucky enough to be summoned by some idiot human who didn't know what they were doing. And you... Well, let's just say your angel must have messed up." She glances at you sideways with a slightly amused expression.

You finish selecting your food and place your order at the counter. The cafeteria lady, a hulking ogre who looks like she'd been cooking for centuries, grunts in acknowledgement before returning to her stoves. Once you've gotten your food, you sit down again across from Aria and begin eating.

Aria snorts again as you ask about the food. "This? Oh, this is just our everyday fare. Nothing special." She grins and takes another bite of her sandwich. "Trust me, if it was any good, they'd serve it in that fancy lady's office instead of throwing scraps at us commoners."

The two of you continue to eat in relative silence for a few moments, occasionally exchanging glances or brief remarks about the taste of the food. The rest of the cafeteria seems to be enjoying itself more loudly, their conversations and laughter filling the air as they dine.

Aria hesitates for a moment before giving you a sideways glance. "Well... I don't see why not," she says, carefully moving her chair out of the way so you can get a better look at it. Her tail is indeed quite impressive - thick and long, with soft fur that feels almost like silk against your fingers as you gently stroke it.

She watches you closely, studying your reaction to touching her tail. Your touch sends shivers down her spine, but she tries not to let it show on her face. "So... Letril," she says again after a moment, her voice somewhat more tentative now. "What else do you want to know about me?"

"Well, thanks, I guess." Aria says, looking taken aback by your compliment. "I didn't expect to be seen as nice by someone like you... But I try to be civilized, even if everyone else here is just waiting for an excuse to tear me apart." She pauses, considering her words carefully before continuing. "You know, it wouldn't hurt to have a friend here in this place... Someone who understands what it's like not to belong, you know?"

Her tail flicks gently against your hand as she speaks, seeking further contact and comfort from your touch.

Aria watches you as you hold her tail, feeling the soft fur beneath your fingers. A smile tugs at the corners of her lips and she can't help but relax slightly into her chair. "Thank you... I don't think anyone's ever offered me that before..." She hesitates for a moment, then adds, "Maybe we could hang out after school sometime? I know this place inside-out, so if there's anything you wanna see or do..."

Her tail twitches against your palm, seeking further contact as she grows more comfortable with the idea of having someone like you in her life.

Aria grins at you. "Tomorrow it is then! I'll meet you after classes." With that, she finishes her lunch and stands up, stretching luxuriously before throwing her empty tray into the bin with impressive strength. "See you later, Letril," she says over her shoulder as she walks away from the cafeteria.

Aria nods and heads to her next class with a new spring in her step. She seems genuinely happy that someone like you is willing to be friends with her. The other students in the cafeteria continue to go about their business, some watching Aria curiously while others ignore her altogether. As you finish up your lunch and prepare to head back to class yourself, you can't help but feel a strange sense of belonging that you haven't felt since... well, ever really.

The invisible presence turned out to be Aria, who had been following you after your classes. "Let go of me!" she hissed, trying to push you away with her tail as she struggled futilely against your grip. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" she snapped between gasps for air. "You can't just- wait! No! AAAH!" Her protests were cut short when your grip tightened, and she was forced to let out a yelp of pain instead.

Aria rubbed her shoulder where she had felt pain and glared at you, eyes flashing with anger. "I was just making sure nobody took advantage of you," she growled through clenched teeth. "You idiot human, didn't your parents ever teach you not to trust strangers?"

She paused for a moment before adding, "Look, I'm sorry if I scared you or anything... But I can see that we need each other here, so how about we call it even and just forget this happened?"

Aria sighed softly and nodded slowly. "It's alright... I probably deserved it anyway." She hesitated for a moment before asking cautiously, "So... you still want to hang out after school today?"

Aria nodded and watched as you disappeared into your new dorm room. She waited patiently outside the door, tapping her claws impatiently against the wall as she thought about what to do next. Suddenly, an idea came to her and she smirked to herself before taking out a piece of chalk from her pocket. Quickly, she began scribbling something on the ground near your door before disappearing around a corner when you emerged moments later.

When you step outside your room and notice the strange symbols drawn on the floor, Aria's invisible form sneaks up behind you and whispers in your ear, "They'll never suspect a thing now... Let's go have some fun." Her tail swishes playfully against your leg as she grins wickedly.

The symbols drawn on the floor were actually a series of innocent-looking runes that would fool any demon who happened to see them into thinking they were harmless. In reality, they served as a sort of cloaking device for you and Aria, making it so that no one could sense your presence while inside their range. This was extremely useful in getting away with things or sneaking around without being detected.

Aria had drawn them to ensure you both could have some privacy and freedom during your time together without having to worry about prying eyes or meddling demons.

Aria grinned widely as she yanked you back inside your dorm room. "Let the fun begin!" She shut the door behind you and spun around, her tail flicking playfully against various objects in the room before coming to rest on your shoulder. Her eyes glinted with mischief as she looked around, already scheming about all the possibilities this newfound freedom would bring.

Aria chuckled at your comment. "Well, I am half-fox spirit," she acknowledged with a smile. "But slyness isn't the only thing that comes with being a kitsune." She shrugged casually before her gaze fixed on something across the room. "Hey, there's my favorite pillow! Let's see how far we can throw it..." Without another word, she launched herself at top speed towards your bed, aiming for the plush object that served as its centerpiece.

Aria blushed slightly at your comment but didn't let it distract her as she launched herself off the bed with surprising agility. Her tail swished through the air, guiding her toward the pillow like an extension of her body, and then she pounced forward with all her might. The pillow sailed gracefully through the air and landed neatly in a corner of the room, barely missing the wastebasket beside it. She grinned triumphantly before spinning around to face you once more.

"See? Told you I was good at that!" she exclaimed proudly. Then her expression turned thoughtful as she remembered something else. "Hey, have you ever tried using magic before?"

Aria considered this for a moment before nodding slowly. "Well, since you're here with me now... I could teach you! It wouldn't hurt to know how to defend yourself against some of the lesser demons who might try and pick on you." She grinned mischievously. "Think of it as a survival skill!"

"So, want to learn?" she asked eagerly, already beginning to pace back and forth across the room in anticipation.
