"Right," she agreed with a grin. "So you kinda have to be at least a little dorky. But there are dorks in every house, so it's not too bad."

She made a face. "That sucks. Mine did both, kind of. It's one of the reasons I wanted to transfer, so I could go to a school where no one knew them. Damien's not as bad, though." Her expression quickly turned back to a smile, and she jumped onto a fallen log and walked along it. "Messes are the best!"

Jumping off the log, she pranced over to where Yev was and accepted the jar from him, admiring the petals. "Very pretty," she agreed with a smile. Glancing over at Yev, she giggled a little at his expression.
