	[color=6ecff6]"Mhm!"[/color] She nodded at Eli. [color=6ecff6] "No problem. It was fun!"[/color] She waved at him, smiling. It seemed the tension was broken, thankfully. The rest of the day passed without much event. The teachers at their small school had long gotten used to her quiet mumbling. Emily tries to keep it as low as possible, it's mostly under her breathe at this point. 

	Emily didn't mind school. She could learn some cool things from it. Besides, she needed it if she was going to be a well rounded citizen. [color=6ecff6]"...the modern idea of a well rounded student originally comes from ancient Greece. Athens, specifically. Though of course at the time it was only for land owning men, like most things were back then. Greek statues actually had color on them, the paint just faded over time. Now we base our government architecture on a misunderstanding of what the original democracy used to look like. Weird, weird, huh?"[/color] Emily said aloud when the end of the day bell rang. 

	At first she was going to wait around and see if anyone was gonna stick around for her journalism club. No dice. Oh well. She thought she would go out and see the sights of the town. Explore a little. She liked to do it. She found herself outside in down town. Thinking about things. Thinking about....Halloween. Emily had her book bag clutched to her chest. For some reason she never used the straps, just held it there like it was a bag of potatoes.

	Emily saw Violet, sitting alone on a bench. She seemed upset about something. Emily found herself approaching, and, well, it's not like she could keep her mouth shut forever. She made eye contact with Violet.

	[color=6ecff6]"People are afraid you're gonna murder them, huh? Place a curse on them. Because every year for the last seven years someone goes missing around Halloween [i](and I know all their names.)[/i] Is that a good coffee? You really like caffeine."[/color] It was like a drive by shooting, but of words. Emily paused her walk though, taking some steps closer to the Heiress so she was in conversation distance.
