Satu saw those eyebrows move. She knew that look. She got that look a lot from adults when she wasn't really doing anything. Though this time she supposed he was probably trying to figure out what she meant. People were always really curious and nosy about what other people were now. It was like the Light of May had made them all want to know everything about everyone, unless they were scared. Satu liked the scared ones better because it was a lot more fun to freak them out. He didn't seem like he was going to freak out if she told him she was a water elemental, or maybe not even a blood witch. But she wasn't going to tell him. Hell no. Satu wasn't telling anyone except Leif about that.
"Those? Are the best promises to make," Satu shot back with a wide grin as she walked back to the situate herself next to the plate. "Batting cages aren't the same. You're not actually on the field and I don't care what people say, cage isn't the same as reality." Plus the cage always pitched the same exact way every time. Satu had been in all of them enough to know that the fourth one down was the best and the first was the worst even though everyone crowded for it. She knew how the speeds worked, where the balls would go... the batting cages were for babies. Satu wasn't a baby. She was going to go straight to varsity when she got into high school, none of that junior bull, and it was going to happen because she worked hard and was naturally that good. She swung the bat over the plate and stopped it. "How about you put it right here? Watch the magic I work."
'Don't hit him!' You shut it, I'll do what I want.
