"Ohhhh, right, you have sisters!" Crystal knew that, somewhere in the back of her mind, but she couldn't remember any of them anymore than she could remember why it was that the name Kavanagh seemed so familiar. Like little pieces of her memory were just missing. But it wasn't going to bother her because she was spending the evening with her niece and on top of that she was meeting a new witch. She laughed at the idea of it being tooting her own horn to accept the compliment. "No, it's just true. We should line all of you up and see how true it is. Show his wife. She should have words with him about that." Crystal knew that if her husband... why was she feeling a little sharp jab? Like something had happened that made her not trust men with women? Surely that hadn't. She wasn't married! Just like Desi didn't have a boyfriend. That was vital information that Crystal tucked away for later. "What she said, don't even start looking. Girls can be too, though." She knew that from experience. Didn't she? There it was again! The blank piece in her memory that should've been filled but just wasn't.
Crystal couldn't help her grin when Sarah reacted to the news that she was going to let her ward her tree. Reaching out, she tucked a red curl behind her ear, hand lingering on her cheek as the grin turned into more of a proud smile. "I think you can handle it, Sarah, and I'll be right there to make sure you do everything right. So will Desi, so see, you've got two master's!" Crystal's attention flicked back to Desi when she started talking and she nodded. "I'm White too, never really tried any of the others. But I guess between magic and earth I've had more than enough on my plate to figure out." And earth could be a tad bit greedy when it came to her attention. She never regretted that, she loved spending time with her plants every bit as much as she did her animals and spells. She tried to keep a good balance going. "So; you can try a spell with me? I've got one that I've been working on writing at home that I'd like to try, but not by myself and my brother's absolutely hopeless when it comes to high-level stuff." She rolled her eyes good-naturedly. "It's a very specified ward and I don't know if it'll work, but if it does then it'll shield my plants to keep out bigger animals like rabbits and deer that'll eat them, but not things like butterflies or bees. Want to try it with me?"
