Well this took a sinister turn Rei is just proving himself worthy of my adoration though tbh, he is pure good and I love him <3 His old “buddy” from magical med school, on the other hand
They are not buddies, that’s some big air quotes on that
This guy randomly shows up out of nowhere. He apparently went into research after graduation. He’s fascinated by rare things - so much so that he has no qualms about hurting them, even destroying them, to fulfill his curiosity. And what is he fascinated with now? The girl with the rare disease that causes her to turn things to night, of course. The sinister vibes on this man are just…ugh, amazingly done imo. He’s smiling, polite, friendly, but you know and Rei knows that there’s absolutely nothing in his soul. And he’s clearly brilliant, which makes him all the more frightening.
Side note, I love that there is a magic med school that Rei apparently attended - and he was apparently a great student, because of course he was. Two brilliant minds, with opposite morals and philosophies. Both with magic at their disposal. Help me, but I love this set-up >< I hope Mira comes out of this ok But I have great faith in Rei, I feel like he will always save her <3
