Thread: Caution when merging Date: March 8, Thursday Characters: Quinn and Jadyn Location: School library Summary: Jadyn does the 'running into people' for once, Quinn encounters new/old Jadyn first hand, and Jadyn's powers flare up.
Jadyn sighed heavily as she pulled the final book she was looking for off of the library shelf, adding it to the large stack she was already balancing with one arm. It had been a long week, and it wasn't even completely over yet. On top of everything else going on, with Jaime, with the school, with her powers, she'd found out that she was on the cusp of flunking her Junior year of high school.
She'd been completely stunned by her grades thus far. It was as if she hadn't even bothered to try and keep her grades up, which was baffling since school work was a boring but effortless task for her. So why would she just allow herself to fail? Jadyn gritted her teeth. Just the thought of being a failure was enough to make her angry and determined, but actively failing? That was something she couldn't fathom.
Nor could she think of a reason why. She absolutely hated not being able to remember the last seven months of her life, but no matter how much she pleaded, Jaime refused to tell her about the cause for her attitude change. And it seemed that no one else knew the reason why either. It was becoming tedious and beyond frustrating.
She turned on her heal and headed in the direction of the check-out counter, her mind preoccupied with her missing memories, even as she glanced down at the list in her hand, double checking that she had all the books she would need. Though she was in school, she hadn't seen anyone when she first arrived, so she didn't think twice about not looking where she was going. Until her body came to a jarring halt as she collided with another body, books tumbling to the floor. Immediately dropping to her knees to gather the fallen items, she began to apologize.
"I'm really sorry, I should have been paying more attention to where I was going."
