@silvverbullet liked for a soothsaying!
“ You know, I’m perfectly content remaining in the dark. Life is much simpler that way, ” Paige nods her head vigorously, looking much like a deer caught in the headlights. “ Ignorance ups my chances of living a long, healthy life by 100% because if I don’t know anything, I won’t have the undying urge to get involved. Not getting involved means less opportunities for me to do something stupid. Stupid of a higher level. ”
Did she even take the time to breathe? Probably not, judging by the gulps of air and hand patting her chest. One can’t really blame her, though; stumbling upon a fellow classmate turning into the sort of creature she’s been running from for a good chunk of her life is understandably a bit of a stressor. Just stay out of it, Paige. This is the sort of thing you’ve been trying to avoid, so don’t you--- “ Though if the need to let me in on this is just too much for you, I wouldn’t mind a little information as to what the hell’s going on. ”
