[ she's been avoiding people. She knows she's been doing it, and usually coming to grips with that fact is enough to get her to change her behavior. She's the Sorceress Supreme. People depend on her. People need to know that she is around and available to meet humanity's magical saving roll needs.

But Nico doesn't like people, and she didn't come back happy. No, she came back conflicted, because coming back had felt more like coming home than going home had. She's angry, mostly at herself. Her self-loathing is kicked up to eleven, and she looks it. No makeup or goth clothing today---just a skinny, tired-looking girl with too-big jeans and a ratty black t-shirt. ]

Hi.

[ she doesn't use the doors or bother to check in with the receptionist. Nico's just suddenly there, sitting in the empty chair on the other side of his desk. ]

[ He doesn't look up, and continues lightly marking the paperwork with his ballpoint. There is the faintest hint of a smile before he hides it behind the rim of his coffee cup. ]

You're late.

[ she shrugs negligently ]

I could say that I'm sorry for being late, but we both know I'm not. I just didn't feel like coming. I almost made it, too, but then Catholic guilt raised its ugly head.

Guilt, huh?

[ He still doesn't look up. ]

What was one of the first things I told you during your first visit?
