Random Blades and Magic fanart I made when I was 12

I used to follow those ibispaint "how to paint the skin" "how to paint the hair" tutorials and trace bases I found on Pinterest and somehow got this

Okay this has been eating at me while I've been studying. Is the Blade's and Magic academy a high-school, or a college setting?

Neil and Max were in the same year together, assuming Max is in the highest year if we're going by standard four year high-school, so they'd be around the same age. Neil seems a little older than maybe 17-18 imo, but maybe its just because he has a stable job or smth idk. Lasitc has a job too, but maybe its more situational than age-based in this universe. Iirc Rylan was too young to get a job to help out their grandmother, but Rachel was old enough.

So that means Neil is definitely older than Lastic then since Max and Neil were in the same year? This is pretty flimsy logic but I don't have a lot to worth with here. Actually, let me explain how I think classes work out of the way, since it's possible Lastic could be the same age instead of being younger by a large amount.

I actually don't think the classes are necessarily separated by age, like a traditional high-school. Since Rylan and Lastic share a class, unless Rachel is older than the both of them. Or maybe the Blades and Strikers just have shared classes and there wasn't enough for a separate class. It might be technically possible that someone in the same age is in a higher class based on skill level? This is where I'm questioning if the academy is more like a college, in the sense lots of different ages share classes rather than separated by age. Lastic scored the highest ever in the entrance test, I can't remember her exact number but she blew up the fountain. So if it was based off skill, she would still be a trainee, since her amount of magic doesn't equal skill. I don't actually know if its confirmed Blades and Strikers have magic, but I think it only really matters for the entrance exam.

All we know is Rylan is definitely the youngest and he honestly seems around 15-16 imo but this is just all speculation. As long as anyone passes the magic scaling test and has 100 coins, its possible that some younger students could enter if the academy was more of a college setting. I wish we got canon ages or a little more information/lore on the school/what the characters were taught, since I just find it the most interesting.

I have something I'm ashamed to admit

i was so obsessed with this guy as a kid that I used to keep these screenshots of him on my phone to randomly look at

B&M community what's the general opinion on the twins (Kao and Nao)?

[uselessbiscuitsoul]

Lastic is a prep, Max is a jock, Rachel is a nerd, Rylan is a goth.

Blades and Magic incorrect quotes because I have insomnia

Rylan: What does a winner do when life gives them lemons? Rachel: Um, make lemonade? Rylan: No, they squeeze them right back into life’s eyes!

Neal: *Locks Lastic in the car.* Act like a child, get treated like a child. Lastic: What? Isn't it illegal to leave a child locked in a car?

Max: Oh god, she texted you ‘hi.’’ punctuation only means one thing, Lastic. She's mad at you. Lastic: No, it's Rachel. She's just being gramatically correct! *meanwhile* Rylan, texting from Rachel's phone: And then I used a period so she'd know that I'm mad at her. Rachel: A period doesn't say 'I'm mad', it says 'you're dead to me'. Rylan: I stand by my choice. (Rachel then smacked the shit out of Rylan after realising it was her phone) (ok maybe not but he did get punishment)

Lastic: I am very small and I have no money, so you can imagine the kind of stress that I'm under.

Rachel and/or Lastic: You know you can die from that, right? Neal: *smoking a cigarette* That’s the point. Max: *drinking alcohol* We’re trying to speed this up. Rylan: *Eating raw cookie dough and nodding*
