Every household has seen it at least once: our tiny wizard cat, missing a jump onto a counter, mid-fall. Casting time: whenever someone is watching.
The jump was planned. The landing was not. The mana bill arrives right on schedule: 1 counter, 1 overconfident leap, and a loud scraping sound on the way down.
The cat considers this a total success and takes a celebratory nap.
Counter-spell
1. Make high spots easier to reach with steps or a cat tree.
2. Keep landing zones clear of slippery or breakable things.
3. Laugh quietly; cats seem to prefer dignity.
