Salamander Cabin, Alcove B2

[walks_two_paths]

Savannah hadn't heard from Paige or Lucas since she had been here, so she decided that she should probably call her guardian and let her know what was going on with her at camp

And that was when Eve plopped down on the bed. "Hey, kid," she said, giving a cheerful grin. Eve and cheerful were bad things to combine.

[walks_two_paths]

Savannah raised an eyebrow. "Hi there."

She was very well aware that this was a bad combination.

"What have you been up to?"

Come on, she knew her mother.

[blackmagic_eve]

"Saw Johnny this morning -- and before you say anything, I was perfectly nice to him." What? Eve knew her daughter.

[walks_two_paths]

Her eyes widened. She looked around to make sure no one was nearby to hear her. Then she cast a small silence spell so no one outside her alcove could hear her.

"Mom," she hissed. "What did you do?"

[blackmagic_eve]

"Nothing any overprotective family member wouldn't do," Eve assured her. "Told him if he ever hurt you, I'd make him wish I'd only put him in unbearable pain."

And this was Eve without know the whole story of the shirt incident. Which was probably a good thing.

[walks_two_paths]

Savannah groaned and released the spell so it dissipated. She might have also facepalmed.

"Eve..."

Yeah, it had been a good idea to not tell Eve about the shirt part of the story.

[blackmagic_eve]

"But I was perfectly nice up until then!" Eve protested. "Normal people's definition of the word, too!"

[walks_two_paths]

She probably had been.

"He's probably not going to want to talk to me again. I had to convince Wyatt that he didn't need his ass kicked after the shirt thing in art."

[blackmagic_eve]

"Okay, what? The shirt thing in art? What shirt thing?"

[walks_two_paths]

Shit!

"Nothing," she mumbled. "It was no big deal."

[blackmagic_eve]

"Don't give me that," Eve said, hauling out the Mom Voice. "What happened, Savannah?"

[walks_two_paths]

Savannah looked down at her bed, trying to figure out how to tell her mom what had happened without getting Johnny killed.

"There might have been a tiny, really tiny, really, chance that Johnny... that he might have... suggestedthatItakeoffmyshirtsothatIcouldpressagainsthisbodyandgetallglittery too."

[blackmagic_eve]

Eve had to take a moment to translate that into normal speech, but once she had...

"What. The. Fuck."

[walks_two_paths]

Savannah sighed. "He wasn't himself and he called to apologize last night."

[blackmagic_eve]

Well, at least he'd apologized. That mollified her somewhat.

"And why wasn't he himself?"

[walks_two_paths]

"I...I don't know. He says he doesn't know, either."
