I'm disappointed in my friends...

I would have thought after it got brought up in Nico's journal there'd be a dozen of these photos posted. So, to beat you all to the punch and to educate the next generation, here it is. Me, at seventeen, at the school. You can't see the piercings from the photo, but they were there, enough, to quote Cain Marko, to fund a small African nation.

Just goes to show how people can change, yeah?

...Okay, I'm starting to understand what's going on (not really?).

[xp_daytripper]

Simply put, Nico, I'm a witch. Like you. Back when I first came to the school I was a bit of a handful, but I had some very good people to help straighten me out. You're kind of giving folks deja vu, what with the mutant with magic deal.

Shall we hope it remains only as a creepy deja vu? I think we really should talk, when you have the time...

[xp_daytripper]

Yeah, we probably should. Preferably before you hear the story about me turning the guidance counsellor into a frog...

And sorry about spooking you the other day. We've had a few problems with magical invasions, so I probably came on a bit strong.

You are too late, my...uh, mentor? Please don't make me call you like that, I would very much prefer to stick to "Amanda" and "Pleasepleasedontmakemeafrog."

Also, Ms. Frost told me. The math teaching one, since I'm more or less aware there is a second, less math teaching one.

Probably you say? Look, I'm willing to accept and actually collaborate, but yes, talking please. And thanks.

Unless you're a shapeshifter with identity issues, you're safe from frogging. And I'd prefer to stick to "Amanda" as well - "mentor" is just too wanky for anything.

I do reserve the right to call you "Grasshopper" when I feel like it, tho'. ;)

We do need to talk, definitely. I'm kind of tied up for the week on work stuff, but I'll be around the day after Halloween - I'm babysitting Manuel's little sister that night and it's easier to stay over than drive home in the middle of the night, depending on whose couch I can claim space.

(I'll have a cup of tea, nice and strong with just a bit of milk, first thing, thanks)

Ugh, Halloween. Until then it is.
