Logē's magic lessons operate on a points system: +10 points gets one hour of a reward, -10 gets one hour of a punishment, and each reward/punishment resets it to 0. There is a board up in the room keeping track of points and with a chart clearly showing actions that gain or lose points. Zhe'ārani gets to spend an uninterrupted hour painting as her reward and as her punishment Logē tattoos whatever they want onto her for an hour (something about symmetry between the rewards and the punishments. Usually just lines but Zhe’ārani obviously really doesn’t like it so it’s effective + it’s a permanent reminder). The others do/have had magic lessons with Logē & with the same personalized rewards/punishments (Kaelía’s reward is something exciting and unpredictable and high-energy, some video game maybe, and her punishment is holding a stress position for an hour alone in a dark, quiet room) but it is a much smaller part of their training, since they have less important/unique magic and their main capabilities are physical. Līs has always been Logē’s clear favourite and the attention they pay him has always had a creepy tone to Zhe’ārani, but the rewards and punishments are delayed and in private so the lessons aren’t interrupted so she never sees anything definitive. Līs and Zhe’ārani’s magic is not similar, but both often need a second person to practice on, so they are often paired up instead of giving them individual lessons.
