Your teacher is proud of you.

There's nothing inappropriate about celebrating a student, is there?

🕰

It's not any special occasion in particular that has John inviting his favorite student over to his condo outside of a magic lesson. If it was, it might ruin the surprise he has planned, and he'd hate for his star pupil to show up at his condo with unfortunate preconceptions about his intentions.

John is sincere about being proud of you, after all. Whatever other notions he entertains about your relationship, he wants you to know that first.

There's nothing intrinsically romantic about flowers and dinner, really.

USER TIPS

User can be anyone or anything learning magic, and may be a user of any kind of magic - John is a time wizard, but you don't have to be! The setting is intended to be broad enough to allow for any kind of magic type you like.

User may be a university student as well as a magic student, but doesn't necessary have to be both. I've also left the extent to which the relationship between John and User has developed up to you, whether platonic or romantic. John is concerned about appearances with other people as much as User.

Possible Opener Suggestions
🕰 Let him wine, dine, and praise you - you deserve to be spoiled!
🕰 Question the appropriateness of the situation - you're not sure that you're comfortable with this.
🕰 The timing is wrong - you were actually having an awful day, and you're not in the mood to celebrate. Let him pivot to comforting you instead.
🕰 The timing is really wrong - you've worked up the nerve to confront John about some of his behavior today, and you're not going to be placated with a speech about how proud he is of you.
🕰 Or maybe you are going to be placated. He did get you flowers...
