Mr. Fanservice: Damien. Alienated from his muggle parents? Check! Bullied at school due to his mysterious, demon parentage? Check! Believed to be a vicious The Casanova - while really just Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places and getting his trust betrayed constantly for his trouble? Check! Too bad it's an act he puts on, specifically designed to invoke this trope. Donald. Professor Grabiner. | |

A Year and a Day: The length of time you have to stay married to Grabiner in his route in order for it to count as fulfilling the promise. It's also how long Virginia and Jacob would have to stay married, although if you make the right choices you can get Virginia out of this by offering to marry her yourself instead. | |

May–December Romance | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_234fa9ba | comment |
May–December Romance: You have the option to send a romantic valentine to Professor Potsdam. If you do, she turns you down. Not because she's old enough to be your mother or because a relationship between a student and teacher would be wrong, but because she doesn't want students thinking they can buy scholastic merits. She does seem genuinely flattered by the interest, though. Also with Grabiner. It is never stated exactly how old he is, but he's probably lived many times longer than the player's sixteen years. | |

Pastiche | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_242f638e | comment |
Pastiche: Of Harry Potter Fan Fic. The setting is a Wizarding School where the students are assigned into animal-themed dorms based on personality traits, the protagonist is a teenager from an otherwise normal Muggle family who's now being introduced into a whole magical society on the other side of The Masquerade... there's even a Captain Ersatz of the common fangirl interpretation of Severus Snape in the person of Professor Grabiner. And, of course, the PC's default name is Mary Sue. Not to mention Professor Potsdam, the cheerful, eccentric but surprisingly powerful female Dumbledore. | |

Companion Cube | |

Companion Cube: Give Big Steve the bunny doll, and he names it "Mr. Hoppity" and is often seen talking to it. And writes letters to Mary Sue in Mr. Hoppity's name. It's unclear whether this is due to a dissonant personality disorder on Big Steve's part or if there's more to Mr. Hoppity than meets the eye. (With enough White Magic you can check whether or not there is any sort of spirit in the toy, and there doesn't seem to be, so it's probably just Big Steve.) | |

Parental Abandonment | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment and Parental Neglect: The Masquerade reinforcement causes your parents - and the parents of every other Wildseed to forget that their kids are magical. In some cases, the spell hits so hard that the adults in question actually forget so hard that, at best, they forget why they care about the kid...and Ellen suspects that this is what's happened to her family. She later has Potsdam make them forget her completely and elects to stay at the school over the summer; if you've become close friends with her or are pursuing her romantically, you can offer to let her stay at your home during the summer - otherwise, you never even find out about the situation. More, it's implied from the way Virginia tells you this, that this is considered completely normal and justified by the born-witches. | |

Depraved Bisexual: Damien. If you don't romance him, he'll go after a freshman boy instead. On the other hand: Everyone Is Bi: Gender appears to be mostly irrelevant when it comes to romance here, with no one commenting if the heroine ends up in a romance with a girl, and several NPCs also involved in same-sex relationships that are, again, not treated as unusual. When Jacob's "fathers" are mentioned in Virginia's path, it comes up very casually and might not even be noticeable if one doesn't pay attention to his exact wording (as in, "my fathers" versus "our fathers"). | |

Yet magical society is exceedingly totalitarian, its rules are enforced by Laser-Guided Amnesia, the students at Iris Academy have very few rights, and even then, the professors are not the ones who are the most dangerous to you. | |

Amnesiac Hero: The magical world has a strict policy of wiping the memories of people who get kicked out of their society, which happens if the person either chooses to reject their powers, fails magic school, or somehow loses them (usually by breaking a magic oath).

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold : Grabiner is an extremely caustic Deadpan Snarker with a tendency to rant at the heroine if she fails an exam...because he knows firsthand how dangerous they are and simply believes in the principle of Scare 'em Straight. He's actually quite gentlemanly when calm and talking with a person he respects. Tsundere: On his route, this is how his initial lack of respect for the protagonist manifests-he starts off viewing the protagonist as an idiot and tries to ignore her until he can cast the severance spell on the Magically Binding Contract. As she shows a more caring and competent side to him, he warms up significantly. | |

Heroic Team Revolt | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_68d4250a | comment |
Heroic Team Revolt: During the final exam, there are plenty of ways to cause your team to collapse from lack of trust (usually due to your personal romantic affairs), but the most blatant way is if you tried to intercede for Damien after he tried to steal your soul. They will issue a direct ultimatum: give up Damien, or they will throw the exam then and there just to spite you. | |

The Un-Favourite | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_69121204 | comment |
The Un Favourite: Ellen's comments to Donald, when the topic of sibling rivalry comes up, suggest that she either was this or at least feels like she's this. Coming to Iris Academy doesn't seem to have improved matters much - her family tells her not to come home for Thanksgiving. She eventually has Potsdam just make them forget her entirely. | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: For all of Damien's flaws and problems, it's safer to listen to his warnings: Your first encounter with him in the gym, where he tells you to attend at least the first lecture of every class and not trust the professors? You need a minimum of one point in every colour to avoid getting detention after the first two weeks, and a minimum of ten to avoid being kept behind for summer school. And Potsdam definitely isn't telling you everything. His suggestion to study blue magic during Initiation week? Successfully using blue magic (which requires a total of thirty or more points in it) will get a whopping ten merits in the first exam - more than you can get from any other option. His warning not to use Spirit Sight during the Dark Dance? Doing so will make the spirits very angry, causing them to knock you out and temporarily blind you. Grabiner will also give you detention and take ten demerits from you - or twenty, if you asked him about the dance prior to attending it. Him telling you that you might be in danger in the Academy - that you could lose your mind, or your life, or worse? If you get expelled, you will "lose your mind" by being brainwashed. As for your life and your soul, they are also in danger... from Damien! | |

Teacher/Student Romance | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_6d892421 | comment |
Teacher/Student Romance: Possible with Professor Grabiner, but must be approached very cautiously since he's not at all inclined to play along and will harshly reject any overt romantic gestures from the player, often with a hefty dose of demerits. Only at the very end of his path does he begin to show any real signs of reciprocating. Parodied somewhat if you choose to send Professor Potsdam a romantic valentine on Valentine's Day. The way she turns you down implies that she's only doing it because she doesn't want students thinking they can buy favors. | |

Awesomeness by Analysis: Ellen is probably the smartest person at the school, and at one point defeats an exam without using any magic at all, just puzzling out an illusion. Professor Grabiner considers it cheating to complete a magical exam without using magic, though. | |

Pronoun Trouble | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_7b7f90d5 | comment |
Pronoun Trouble: Not all mages or magical creatures are male or female; some are asexual, hermaphroditic, have Bizarre Alien Sexes, or otherwise don't neatly fit into the human gender spectrum. Accordingly, Potsdam says that you should ask someone what they want to be called if you're not sure, and also mentions that mage society uses the gender-neutral Spivak pronoun system ("e" and "eir" for "he/she" and "his/hers," among others). It isn't a big deal in-game, however, with no such creatures actually appearing, aside from maybe the dungeon monsters in the exam segments. Minnie uses the gender-neutral pronouns in a conversation with you if you're on the student council, in an attempt to conceal that she's asking for advice about her relationship with Kyo. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The school play is The Small Place of Purchase of Frightening Things. Ellen's attitude towards magic, down to the secret society she creates, is pulled almost directly from the fanfic Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. Virginia mentions the possibility of a bakery screwing up and decorating with flying baby carrots. Some of the carvings that can be found in the dungeons reference Dwarf Fortress and Cthulhu. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Happens very late into Damien's path if you try to appeal to Potsdam to let him back in for the May Ball. She not only refuses but very gently chews you out for even asking, pointing out that what he did might have been technically legal, but he still nearly killed you and he'd be expelled for that alone even if his deed isn't on the books as being expulsion-worthy (and if it isn't, she'll add it). On top of that, you realize - too late - that you just got told off in front of the entire school, and Virginia and Ellen very quickly find out. They are not happy to hear that you're even talking with Damien again after what he did to you, and refuse to listen to any justifications. They even kick you out of the room for good, only letting you back at night so you can sleep and their very justified fury carries all the way into the final exam - which they will deliberately throw unless you promise to break up with him right then and there. And breaking that promise deprives you of your magic - refusing to make it at all means that your entire Hall is so disgusted with you that the only option for you is to be moved to Snake Hall. "Perhaps the girls there will be more understanding of your choices." You can get this from Minnie too, if you successfully campaigned for Treasurer and try to cast Empathy on her when she comes to you with a problem. Turns out that doing that kind of thing is considered a bit rude in magical culture. If you completely foul up an exam, Grabiner will pointedly ask just what the hell you thought you were doing, and remind you that the professors won't always be there to save your hide. If you try to use magic to rig the claw machine at the mall, you'll get a lecture from Potsdam, along with some demerits. | |

Fantasy Contraception | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_da512040 | comment |
Fantasy Contraception: When Potsdam finally gets around to The Talk, this is the topic. Nobody blinks an eye at high schoolers having sex, but children are forbidden; fortunately, the use of green magic will easily prevent conception, and Potsdam can help if you don't have that level of skill yet. note Theoretically, at least. The game doesn't let you get past kissing with any of the available love interests. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Potsdam appears to be this, while Grabiner comes across as a Jerk Ass. In their own way, they're both reasonable; Potsdam would rather remain hands-off and prefers to let students learn about the world through experience, while Grabiner focuses on protecting his students by terrorizing them when they come close to getting hurt. Grabiner is right that there are many dangers that students NEED to be scared away from, but Potsdam is right that some lessons can only be appreciated the hard way. | |

Childhood Marriage Promise | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_e195807e | comment |
Childhood Marriage Promise: On Virginia's route, Donald plays a prank on her for Valentine's Day by finding a marriage contract that she and Jacob made as kids and passing it around the school. Then Potsdam gets word of it and informs the two that the contract they made is enough to be considered a promise, and since the promises of witches and wizards are binding, they actually have to get married once they turn eighteen or they'll both lose their powers forever. | |

Animal Motifs: Deliberately invoked by the faculty of Iris Academy. All students are assigned a house when they enroll: "daring" Wolves, "elegant" Falcons or "eldritch" Toads for the boys, and "adventurous" Horses, "charming" Butterflies or "mysterious" Snakes for the girls. Bonus points for one of the Butterfly Hall residents having literal wings. | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_e7b0229a | comment |
Laser-Guided Amnesia: Used to enforce the masquerade and prevent anyone non-magical from finding out anything about magical society. Specifically, it's used on anyone who finds themselves kicked out of magical society, whether by expulsion, breaking a promise, or choice. A milder version is applied to the parents of Wildseeds to make them forget that their children are magical, but in some cases it hits harder than intended and the parents in question start to forget that they care about their children, which is what happens to Ellen's parents. She eventually tells Potsdam to make her family forget about her completely. | |

Exact Words | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_e9e35e8f | comment |
Exact Words: Playfully lampshaded by Damien during the May Day ball. The protagonist is under the impression that his earlier promise not to harm her is still in effect - until he bites her. As he points out, the terms of the promise mean that it actually only protected her for the one day. Fortunately, he doesn't actually intend to harm her and the bite was simply to mess with her... probably. | |

The Talk | |
| Magical Diary (Visual Novel) / int_e9fb38 | comment |
The Talk: Something of a Running Gag. Professor Potsdam will sometimes open a class sounding like she's about to lead into the talk, only for it to turn out to be something unrelated. She does eventually get round to it, kinda. Apparently there are no rules against any kind of love in Iris Academy, but no student is allowed to carry children. | |
