Chloe pov:
Sitting across Mal and Evie felt a little bit intimidating. But I was curious to know because I only heard a little of what a magical promise actually is.
Mal: So, first things first, the magic promise can't never be broken or reverted. Once it's done, you keep it for the rest of your life.
Evie: Secondly, there will be a physical mark that will appear somewhere on your body. We don't choose it. The magic does.
Mal: Whatever promise you choose will the one the magic binds you to. So, the promise must be mutual between the people.
Chloe: But what makes it magical? So far, this just seems all normal to me.
Evie: well Chloe the magic part is that it makes it so you can't ever break it no matter how hard you try, physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Chloe looked a little shocked.
Chloe: Oh...
Red: Wait, you guys said you did one too, right?
Mal nodded.
Both evie and Mal lifted their hands to their shirt collars and moved it, showing their matching marks. That was just below the collar bone. Both me and Red gasped with our mouths open and wide eyes admiring.
Evie: Watch this now.
Evie takes the tip of her middle finger and gently grazes it over her mark. Mal suddenly shuddered, trying to keep her reaction at bay. Our eyes shifted towards Mal as if she were being tickled. Evies teased her one more time before slowly removing her finger.
Red: What was that?
Evie: That's another thing that makes this promise ever more unique. It's sorta like a call button.... whenever I need or want Mal to acknowledge me or to know I'm there or, for example, something bad happens. I can always give it a little touch to let her know.
Evie: Or whenever I want to tease her.
She whispers, hiding her face from Mal, giving us a small grin. Mal nudging her arm.
Chloe: What else can it do?
Mal: well there's different motions or touches that can signal different things. It's a little complicated, but it's kinda like programming it. So touching it with the middle fingers tickles. But if I...
Mal lifts her pinky and pokes it. Evie suddenly jolts up in sorta half in pain, half surprised way.
Mal: I used that one to wake her up.
We all giggled except Evie, who was pouting.
Red: thats kinda cool, but what was your guy's promise?
Mal: we promised each other to always be best friends no matter what. No matter who we are with, no matter where we are.
Evie: it became to us very clear that we didn't want to lose each other after we sang space between the isle of the lost years ago. We meant too much to each other to ever let go.
Red, chloe: Awww
Evie: But there's 1 thing you should also know. It can only be done with true love, if yours feelings aren't mutual or enough, it will not work.
Red: So we have to be compatible?
Mal: Yes, which is why enemies or rivals can never make promises.
Red: Wait, so how do we know if we are even compatible with doing it?
Evie: There are some tests, spells, and activities that can boost your feelings if they aren't strong enough. But I doubt you guys would need them. Your chemistry is strong, but are your feelings strong enough, too?
