A Mob Boss Sam? That sounds like a story- you willing to tell?

Sam: There’s not much of a story to tell, honestly. Being a Pines, I’ve got some old family ties to the Dinner Crew, and I owed some people. It was a pretty shortlived arrangement.

Delina: Sure sounds like a story to me… Also, wait, didn’t the Dinner Crew disband, like, 500 years ago?

Hey A- er, Sam! How did you find out about Delina's powers? Even her friends at school didn't know about them.

Sam: Well, for one thing, Delina’s parents keep her out of school specifically so people don’t find out about her fire magic. I have… other means.

Sam: I might not have put it the best way before, but it’s true that I’ve been keeping an eye on her for a while now. Since birth, you could say. It’s the least I could do when it's my fault she has that power in the first place.

Hey Jake! What's up with the new glasses?

Jake: What, these? They help me detect and gauge magic levels. You can think of them as a kind of artificial, more accurate Sight.

Jake: I got the idea from my father’s journals ages ago, actually, but I was only able to get them physically made recently. They’ve been very helpful.

Hey Delina! Do YOU think Sam is creepy?

(As of Chapter 6:)

Delina: I don’t know what to think about Sam anymore.

Hey Sam! What did you do before you became a psychic?

Sam: A professional psychic, you mean? People are born with psychic powers. It’s not the kind of thing you can just pick up.

Sam: Before I was doing this, though… well, I’ve had a bunch of odd jobs. Guest lecturer, model, archaeologist, mob boss, plumber… that one was probably one of my least favorites, if we’re keeping track… Tooth fairy, museum curator, programmer. I was a traveling exorcist for a while, too.

Sam: Am I lying about any of this? You tell me.
