You know what? This is really silly.

And I'm really sick and tired of all this hiding and lying to people; I'm not even that good at it. And for what? On the off chance that, out of all the people dragged here from all over the multiverse from different planets and points in time, one of them is going to be a religious nutjob with the intent to kill me?

No. You know what? I'm more powerful that some guy who believe's he's doing "God's work" by killing innocent teenagers. I don't need to live in fear of-- of someone finding out, of all these memory shenanigans, of... bigots.

Peeps of the Tranquility:

My name is Cassie Blake, and I'm a witch. A full-blooded, hundred-percent witch. [The corner of her mouth tweaks upwards, like she finds something about that sentence funny.]

I like to think I'm a pretty peaceful person, you know? I don't like fighting. But if there's anyone here who has a problem with my evil witchiness, well, you can find me on level 20, room 5. Bring it.

Otherwise, peace out.

Folk might not always think they want a witch about, 'til trouble comes callin'.

[in_the_blood]

... Huh. I never thought of it that way.

I don't know if I'm exactly the best witch to have around in case of emergency, though.

[atent_dead]

Seems to me the thing to do is work on becomin' the best witch to have about then.

[in_the_blood]

And how do you propose I do that? It's not like I exactly have a teacher for any of this stuff. I'm just kind of... muddling around, to be honest.

[atent_dead]

Handy fer ye that I happen to be the best damn witch on the Disc then.

[Cassie's brow furrows]

You're... you're the one I traded memories with, aren't you? The one I couldn't figure out who it was...

[atent_dead]

Might well be. Ain't a terrible lot of senior witches on board.

[in_the_blood]

I see...

[She pauses for a while, processing that. She isn't sure what else she should say next... there's not exactly a manual for this.]

[atent_dead]

S'pose that means ye were the angry one.

[in_the_blood]

[Cassie snorts]

Well, I have a lot to be angry about.

[atent_dead]

And what do ye plan to do with yer angry?

[in_the_blood]

Channel it into escaping from this ship. I don't know.

[atent_dead]

Well, that's a start. Ain't anythin' wrong with angry, if you got some actin' with it.
