Cassie
So ... are you okay?

Diana, Deb & Adam
You might want to check on Cassie.

Melissa
So what are you supposed to get for someone who like, steps in the way and saves your life and freaking dies?

....Why the hell are there kittens in my apartment?

And why the hell do they think I'm their bed?

I was politely informed that my topic of The Parentalia Festival for a class project does not mean I get to bring alcohol to school. Not saying I was going to try that, but what exactly about me gives off the vibe of wanting to bring booze to class?

Sometimes a guy just wants to do a presentation about an ancient festival designed to honor ancestors.

I'm leaving the circle and taking back my vote. Nick is your new leader. I'm evil and I don't care about any of you anyways, right? I'm never around to help and I'm selfish. Therefore it shouldn't affect any of you that I'm leaving.

So, did Faye just become a psychopath overnight or was she like this when she got here?

Jake
So ... I kind of set Adam on fire.

Melissa
Adam's an asshole. Pass it on.

I want to suggest we take a vote for leadership of the Circle. A lot of things have happened and it is clear we all need to be on the same page.

The Circle isn't an obligation, but it is in our blood. All of ours. Damn it, we were born to make magic and I am not giving up on the Circle.

Cassie has already agreed to this.

So, are we voting for a new leader or not?

Jake and I broke up and I'm not going to cry about it. Fucking refuse to cry. I'm going out. Are you going with me?

Yep.

I shouldn't be surprised but alright, I'll bite.

What's going on?

My roommate is gone. I would say party at my place, but he wasn't so bad. I'm going to miss him. He was a chill dude.

So this is what's left when everything else leaves.

How strange.

So, that guy who was offering to help summon a demon? He's totally not going to help. Also, he's creepy as hell and was asking about Cassie but I didn't think he was creepy when I told him her last name. Then he asked if I knew Amelia Blake. When I told him I did, he said, "forget I said anything."

Something's up.

Since I'm not sure if either of the Dark Ones will offer for the masses-- This sort of witchcraft isn't usually my specialty, but it's a fairly simple spell where I come from and it's called a locator potion. I can concoct it so that it finds a specific soul rather than a body. I'd just need an artifact or two belonging to the person whose soul you want to find. No charge, but I thought I'd offer to those going out hunting.

I'll be at the bakery setting up shop there because my condo is very cold and just ask for Elsa.

If anyone wants to summon a demon...I might know a spell to do just that, or I'll be happy to share if you all want to do it yourselves. You can call it charity.

You just need more than one witch to do it, or at least someone powerful enough. Like...a circle coven, maybe?

She's out of her fucking mind.

She's trying to take on Kai Parker.

Well, well, well.

Looks like a few finally got their fire back. About damn time. It was starting to get boring around here.

So is anything not stuck up going on for New Year's Eve?

[the entire circle]
We doing anything?

Merry Christmas, losers.

I'm pretty sure that my plans for the day did not include getting kidnapped by weirdos claiming to be angels.
