Me: May or not have bawled my eyes out reading your comments so here's another chapter that I'm writing instead of doing homework!!
Fitz: Stop procrastinating!! Procrastination is our worst enemy.
Keefe: Dude, we're not in Foxfire anymore. Stop reading out of a textbook.
Tam: That's fire.
Sophie: What????
Tam: Isn't that human slang for stupid?
Sophie: No????????
Marella: Are you calling me stupid, Tam?
Tam: Hahahaha what. Nope. Not at all. Stop staring at me like you're going to burn my house down. Linh help me.
Marella: *flame in her hand* Linh, don't help him
Linh: *unimpressed and slightly bored* Are you done yet?
Marella: ...
Linh: ...
Marella: No?
Linh: I- that was supposed to be theoretical- but uh, then be done??
Marella: Okay *extinguishes fire*
Biana: Marella, you are a different breed of elf.
HE'S A MESMER," MARELLA TOLD HER THE next day during lunch. "Why?"
"I don't know. It's weird that he won't tell me, isn't it?" Sophie asked.
Edaline: Hey, um, me and Grady'll go outside for this, is that alright?
Sophie: PLEASE. I mean. Sure. I mean if you want too, it's probably better if you do, y'know. So you don't read all my embarrassing thoughts. You know. The usual.
"It's Grady and Edaline—everything about them is weird. I still can't believe you're living with them. Are they adopting you?"
"I . . . don't know. What exactly is a Mesmer?" she asked, changing the subject to something that didn't make her nauseated.
"Wow, you really don't know anything, do you?"
Biana: *snorts* Dear god, you're blunt.
Marella: I'm starting to hate how much I am in this book. It's weird.
Tam: You mean its revealing embarrassing moments and you don't want people to know them-
Marella: Yes, Tam. Yes.
Sophie: Marella, you can't be talking *bangs head on the table* I think I might die of embarrassment if I say one more thing about Fitz's eyes.
Fitz: *starts coughing on air because he was not expecting that at all*
Dex: *grinning, patting Fitz on the back* There, there, buddy.
Keefe: *nodding and smiling*
Marella: *side-eyeing Biana and whispers* Why is he being nice about that?? What happened to Keefe??
Keefe: I can hear you, you know
Marella: So then don't hear us, idiot. We're having a private conversation here!
Tam: *whispers to Linh* Distraction time?
Linh: Bring out the tea.
"Never mind."
"I'm just teasing—sheesh. A Mesmer can put you in a trance and make you do anything they want while you're in it. It's rare. Not as rare as inflicting, but close."
