[Akko is a 5th year student by this time]

"It's easy to forget how athletic Chariot actually is sometimes," Croix remarked, leaning against a low balcony overlooking Luna Nova's training field.

Akko nodded vigorously, watching her favorite professor jog in a steady pace with fires in her eyes. "I never knew Professor Chariot could do some serious somersaults!"

"Oh she could do a lot," Croix crossed her arms. "One time she came at me at the research tower with all this acrobatic shit."

Akko's ears flared. The lilac haired witch knew Akko looked up to Chariot, but she didn't think she felt strongly enough to get flustered. "She did?"

"Yes. But of course, my technology was more than enough to keep up."

"Uhuh."

"I'll admit I was caught off guard when she attacked—with a complete costume change and everything."

The younger witch's eyes grew wide with curiosity. "L—Like the Shiny Chariot costume?!"

Croix scoffed. "What? No. More like a lot of spandex, or whatever. It was easy to move in—at least compared to that horrid thing they call a teacher's uniform."

"I… I see."

Chariot's pace began to slow.

"She worked me up pretty well," Croix openly admitted. She didn't understand why she bothered with the conversation. Akko was just another annoying teenager, but the girl did have a way to make people talk. "I'm an inventor and a witch, not a gymnast. Did she really think I'd keep up if she got too physical?"

"W—Well I guess stamina will always be important."

"Hmph." Croix crossed her arms, eyeing Chariot while she wiped a sheen of sweat off her forehead. "Probably."

"I—I didn't expect she would be so physical, though."

"Oh, no, she would use magic too of course."

Akko's head whipped around so fast her neck might have broken. "W—What?"

"She actually made her wand into this long, glowing thing and tried to do me in with it. It was like a sword; I was almost impressed."

The brunette's jaw went slack. "Wow. I never thought she would be the type."

"Huh?"

"I mean, the furthest Diana has ever gone with me was handcuffs, but I guess the older you are—"

Croix's eyebrows shot up. "Kagari. I was talking about when Chariox literally attacked my research tower to stop the Noir Rod."

Akko wanted to punch herself.

"So." Croix smirked. "Handcuffs?"

"Please forget I was ever born." Akko took a sharp, one eighty degree turn before running away.

A/N: Hello I promise I will write longer & more serious fluffy shit soon but right now I need to keep shitposting because I cannot get these ideas out of my head & why don't we all talk about how hot Chariot is more?!
