Hamilton's Qualms

From the very beginning, Hamilton had always been skeptical of the whole Giuseppe business. She refused to go beyond what was expected of her, which was usually passing the doll around when it landed on her spot at the table at lunch, and she frequently told us that we were being obnoxious or too extra when it came to Giuseppe. She was cautious, I suppose, and not very fervent about our dark lord, so it was a miracle that she continued to sit with us.

That is, until she didn't.

Hamilton has always been the person to change up her seating arrangements to be friendly with everyone in the grade, but she still sat with us a lot. However, it came to a point where she moved to other places more often than she already did, and she eventually stopped sitting with us completely. We didn't exactly know why, but we could guess that it was because of Giuseppe. We could all recognize that the situation had gotten out of hand — Haglet had already gotten in trouble with her mom and the guidance counselor, and we had already lost Siracha Delaporte — but we were nevertheless invested in Giuseppe, even if we had said goodbye to two of our friends because of it.

Maybe the dark lord was better at possession than we had thought.
