Tempest turned her attention away from the toddler that had been muttered her name when they were approached by a boy. She looked up at him, wondering why she was so popular all of a sudden. The thought died when she realized this boy was quite attractive. She listened politely to what he had to say, making a note of his French accent. She wondered to herself what kind of Leoh he was.

She openly checked him out, completely unashamed. She finally met his eyes and smiled. "I'm Tempest." She shook his hand, lingering a little. "I've actually been coming here for three years. You don't need to be anywhere specifically right now, today is pretty much just time to explore the camp and get to know some of the people here."

She wondered if this summer might be more exciting than she was worried about. At least most Leoh boys her age were really cute, unlike human boys. She supposed she had forgot that little fact. At least she had some flirting to look forward to.

@collectorofmyst I'd call it a dominant trait, though I'm not sure that's entirely accurate. If one parent has that trait, the child can end up with it. It's more rare for a child to not have the magical gene if one parent has it. The skipping generations thing is really rare but happens occasionally.

Tempest fiddled idly with the earbud that wasn't in her ear and held her tray with her free hand. The camp hadn't been so populated the previous summers she had been there, and she all she could think about was how long the line for the showers would be.

Her plan to make the best of the summer wasn't going so well.

She was scanning the mess hall for kids she might be interested in getting to know, since she needed to make a new group of friends, even if they wouldn't replace her friends from last year, who had been so freaking cool. They had been part of the reason she was as cool as she was now. She had learned from them. Honestly, she would've been excited about coming back if the camp took eighteen year olds. At this point she was just happy that she was still in contact with them, though she had only been texting and video chatting with them for the past year.

She was lost in her thoughts and worries about how different the camp would be this summer when she heard someone saying her name. Normally she'd figure she'd just been imagining it, since she didn't really know anyone, but when she heard it more than once she figured someone was actually looking for her. She looked around to find the culprit but didn't see anyone. That is, until she looked down. There walked a tiny girl who didn't even reach Tempest's hips, muttering her name over and over to herself.

"Do you need something?" Tempest asked the girl, wondering what on earth a seven year old was doing here.

"Alice, please, I'm sorry I can't do anything more immediately. I understand how frustrating this must be for you. Camp Remedy was founded so that you could be free to be yourself, free from the restrictions of the mortal world," She was almost pleading for Alice to understand, "I promise you I will do whatever I can to get those cuffs off of you, but the government has more control over the camp than me. I will help you however I can. I believe you deserve a chance to show that you are better than a petty thief like they think you are. Please, give me a chance to help."

"I'll try to get you a meeting with them sometime this week so you can testify your case, but I can't promise that it will be that soon," She paused, "I'd be glad to help you figure out the best way to testify in your favor."

@medalliah

"The hunger is hard to resist at first, but you'll grow more tolerant. As you feed more, you'll be able to go longer stretches of time without needing to again. I only have to feed twice a week." She put a comforting hand on Natalie's shoulder, "It takes a while, but you'll get there. I understand how uncomfortable it is. Would you like me to get you something to eat now? Some humans who know about us donate blood so we don't have to drink anyone's blood against their will."

@bilbothegreat

Lilac frowned, feeling bad for the girl. "You're right, you do deserve a chance. However, it isn't in my power to release you. I can get you in contact with those who have that power, and you can try to convince them, but that's the best I can do. I'm sorry."

@medalliah

Thelema sighed softly, remembering worrying about all these things herself.

"You won't age anymore, but you can still be an adult. You'll have to get a fake ID every few years and can probably never pass as older than 21, but the branch of government that deals with Leoh will hook you up with that." She folded her arms.

"As far as fangs go, you can retract them like I do. They'll become bigger as you feed more. I'll teach you how to retract them in your Abilities lessons," she paused, "Anything else?"

@bilbothegreat

Lilac smiled sympathetically at the girl before her.

"I'm sorry, dear, but that's not up to me. The people who fund this camp have made the decision that you'll have to wear them all summer except for in Abilities classes. I tried to get some lenience for you, but they wouldn't have it. I did my best, but I'm afraid you'll just have to live with it for the next two months. If anyone gives you a hard time about them, though, let me know and we'll address the issue."

@medalliah

She looked at the roses that bloomed and smiled softly. "Torok must be here. This shows a lot of control. Good for him."

She turned back to Natalie, glad that she seemed to have given her some peace of mind. "I have time for any questions. Fire away."
