"Yeahhhh...." Sylvi says to Sam. "I want to know more about what she fought, but there's no real way I can ask."

"Well, maybe I can try later?"

"Possibly, depends on if the new guy comes in on time." Tove says

"I hope so." Pause. "If she forgets I'm fae, I can't tell her, can I?"

Sylvi gets a message back. "Yeah...I've gotta be back by 7 for chores, but otherwise I can stay."

Tove says "I think we have an alliance with the garou? or .. a mutual non agression pact... the chief might allow even then. I know that's not the answer you want but check with her maybe?" Tove says "The good news is I think the mists are weaker on her than it would be your average high school student"

"Awesome."

"Yeah, I'll check with Chiee...OH! Oh, shit, Miss Grey!"

"Miss Grey was ENCHANTED!"

"Good to hear it, Sylvi. Now, what's this about Colton saving.. what?" She whirls on her daughter "Your gym teacher and coach?"

"Yes, that Miss Grey!"

"She was? When?!"

"Never rains but it pours" Tove says

"In class! At school!"

"Oh, man....she's..." Sylvi's eyes go wide. "Um...oh, man....you know I saw Lut visiting her at school one day last year...."

"Noooo... you think?"

"Ooooh my" Tove says "And I Heard that Lut is dating someone... has been for awhile... oh no maybe.." Unsure

Sylvi winces. "Oh, wow....Oh, I shouldn't have said that. I don't want to be a narc about it. But...."

"I mean... she'll forget?"

"She should forget, yeah."

"Well, we don't know anything for sure" Tove says "Let's set up the plates while we worry mmM? We can multitask. This is a matter for the Chief to ponder. THough she maybe feeling overwhelmed"

"She seemed pretty chill about it, honestly..."

"Chill? Not freaked?"

"Right? Despit eme being, what, seven foot tall and blue?"

"That might indicate she's been enchanted before... or maybe she's just mellow by nature?" Plates are handed to Sylvi and Dagmar to put at the table along with silverware. SHe lacks Kerri's command skills, but there is clearly an expectation for the girls to do more than talk

(Meanwhile: Lupita will discover an audience when she steps out from the shower. A one-eyed Siamese. With opinions. Rude!)

Dagmar knows her job! Silverware and glasses!

Sylvi definitely helps set things out.

(upstairs) LUpita looks at Odin "Hey... don't judge... you wouldn't look near as pretty after a shower as I do."

"Thank you, girls" Tove smiles to both as they work.

"Sure, Tove!" Sylvi smiles. "Need anything else done?"

"No I've got the rest." Tove says "Maybe someone should tell Lut and see how he .. no, this should be left to the Chief "

"Thanks for the shirt," footsteps as Lupita comes down "And the shower."

"No problem. Feeling better? Grab a seat, there's food!"

"..not sure what food..."

"I'll tell the....I'll tell Aunt Brekke," Sylvi assures Tove.

Sylvi smiles to Lupita.

"It's a pasta dish I saw on TV.... none of you area allergic to shrimp are you? " the noodles do indeed have shrimp in it

"Oooo..." Sniff.

"Oh heck no I'm not allergic" Lupita says "I love shrimp but we don't get it often"

"Oh, yummy!" Being the daughter of a Hearth, one learns early not to be a picky eater.

"Shrimp's also really good for you. Lots of protein, no fat to speak of."

She claims a chair. "That's my story, and I'm sticking to it." A smile.

Tove laughs

"Also, spicy! Sure you can handle it, G?"

Lupita grins "I'll try that on my mom" then "Of course I can handle it."

"Sooooo you say..."

"Mm I have a mild plate if you prefer"

"For Dad?"

"I might like mine a little milder, too, if there's enough mild."
