"I'll get the Magister," Marcus offers. "You focus on the those other ones. Try not to flood the room or something"
"I can swim," Vanessa says. "I can probably keep her afloat until you get here."
Their faith in me is so touching. "I'm not going to flood the room,

"Did you know you were going to set a paper on fire before you
did it?" Marcus looks stern, but there's a slight twinkle in his eyes, and a little quirk to his smile, that tells me he's becoming more comfortable around me.

Selene, on the other hand.....
I'm not sneezing, but all I can smell is refuse. She sounds sour in my head. There's an alley with garbage cans. I guess no one wants to ward their trash.
As Marcus leaves to fetch Magister Orion, my heart clenches in sympathy for my wolf. I wish there was a way to make you more comfortable.
It's fine, Selene replies, though her mental voice sounds strained. I'd rather be here than leave you alone.

I feel like I'm missing something huge. Like there's this... I don't know, this looming disaster just waiting to happen, and I can't see it coming."
