@MyCatGinger - I can't imagine Shou will get to bed before five. If he has to go to the campus in the morning, he might get 4-5 hours of sleep tops. Bad times. Shizuka passively worries about everyone, she's kind of a motherly sort.
I got into Magic in high school, though I haven't played in years. if you want to start, I would recommend a starter kit (those have two full decks I think, instructions, and a detailed walkthrough of your first simulated game). My next suggestion after that would be 'themed decks'. I'm not a hardcore player, so I'm not sure I'm using all the right terminology, but the starter kits and themed decks will introduce you to various ways to take advantage of card synergy. Then once you find a type of synergy that is to your liking, you can try to optimize your deck for that synergy, and if possible, optimize to take advantage of multiple synergies. The five colors sort of have their own specialized synergies, though cross-color synergy does exist. One complaint about MtG is the cost, you'll end up buying a bunch of cards and only use a handful of them, because a lot of it is trial and error as you buy random packs of cards to see what you find, and which ones will work within your existing decks.
Yeah, I was thinking Shizuka might become really good at it or something.
