Meet The Local Troublemaker

Lotharingia · Mar 6, 2019

Late in the afternoon, after regular classes had ended, Evie Everson was hatching her latest scheme.

She had climbed up a tree overlooking the sports fields, where the sports clubs were just finishing their practice under the afternoon sun. Evie's attention, however, wasn't towards them, but directed towards the change rooms closer to the rest of the campus. Unbeknownst to the rest of the students, she’d snuck inside there earlier and left a little present.

Yesterday after a short bout of research, followed by immediately giving up just visiting a shop in the city, Evie had procured some kind of magic stink bomb. She had no idea what it actually did, but according to the package it would be significantly more potent than any normal stink bomb.

So naturally, she was itching for a chance to test it out.

Once the sports students had wrapped up their practise, they began to file in to the change rooms. Evie could just make out the distant sounds of their chatter as they discussed their teamwork and their plans for the rest of the day. Once they were all inside, it was only a matter of time before someone accidentally set off the-

Poof.

No sooner had the doors shut behind the last student, they were immediately flung back open, and the students began streaming back out, coughing and yelling, a comically large cloud of green gas billowing out behind them.

Evie, from her little perch in the tree, almost fell right off the branch in surprise. One hand shot to her mouth in an attempt to block the tide of laughter that was rising out of her throat. Clearly it had been far more effective than she was expecting.

Fortunately for Evie, the other students were too busy covering their noses and resisting the urge to barf to notice the little gremlin gleefully watching them all.

If Silas wanted to propose a yearbook staff and get it up and going, he needed some sample spreads. Of course what better spread to butter up some potential club advisers than a sports spread?

With Ol' Reliable in his hands, he clicked his shutter away and got some pretty good action shots. At least for a team practice. Soon enough, they ended and started to filter away and into the changing rooms. Silas took that time to find a tree to park under so he could review the shots he got.

He was casually minding his own business, when a few moments later, he heard what sounded like a muffled bang. His shaded eyes lifted up, and he witnessed a thick, green haze coming out of the changing rooms, along with several seemingly disturbed kids. A smirk crossed his face. Ah, campus pranks. Just when he was starting to think that this place was mostly work and little fun.

There was a bit of rustling in the tree above him, and a couple of leaves drifted down. Brows furrowed, he rose to his feet and dusted the dirt off of the back of his pants. Someone was definitely up there. His gut had a shell of a feeling. Not really danger, but mischief. "Hey," he called up. He took a few steps to the side and saw a girl, pretty small and thin, perched on one of the branches. "Pretty sure I know the answer, but did you do that?" he asked as he motioned towards the gaggle of gagging students. "That's pretty good, but kind of basic. What else you got?"

“Hmm?”

Evie craned her neck to look down, spotting the unfamiliar boy below her. She shot him a lazy grin, casually reclining back on the tree branch.

“What, you think just because I’m here enjoying the show that I had something to do with that? You obviously must be new here, I’m a picture of innocence.”

She giggled, before readjusting her seat on the branch, turning so that her back faced him, before falling back, wrapping her legs around the wood and hanging off the tree upside down like a bat, white hair pointing down to the grass.

“In my professional bystander opinion though, it looks pretty gnarly. I mean look at that cloud!” She gestured both arms towards the students. “Their clothes are probably gonna stink for weeks! I’d be pretty satisfied if I was the one that did that.”

She refocused her attention back on him, eyes narrowing mischievously, almost challenging look in her grin.

“Unless of course, you got something you’d wanna show off as well?”

It was all Silas could do to smirk as the girl "defended" herself. She sure did seem pretty confident maneuvering about that tree. Maybe her power was climbing trees. She seemed like a pretty average human, though he had been fooled before. She also seemed to rock the white hair, which he could respect. But did hers grow in like that? Why did he suddenly feel like a poser? At least he had touched up his roots a few days ago, so his hair was nothing but snow. And holy shit, now she was hanging just by her legs. Yeah, her power definitely had to be climbing trees.

"Picture of innocence. Of course. It's just that, y'know, it's hard to enjoy a show you didn't know was about to happen. Now if someone came along and saw you, I think it'd be fair to plausibly deny and say you were just being a kid and climbing a tree. Or maybe, you have tree-climbing powers that you wanted to practice, maybe stretch out a bit." Upon glancing back over at the slowly fading stink cloud, some adult figures could now be spotted. "Whatever you decide, you may wanna figure it out before they come over here like the Spanish Inquisition. They look pissed."

He glanced back at her and met her narrowed gaze through his sunglasses. Was that a challenge? "Now, I'm not a mischievous girl that likes to hang out in trees," he started, "but if I were, I'd recall that there were some special candies at the store that had an almost explosive laxative property. I'd save them for a day I had a test in class, give a few to my teacher, bring them as a 'good luck' treat for everyone before the test." He shrugged a bit.

"But again, I'm not a mischievous girl that likes to hang out in trees."

“Wow, you're really makin’ a lotta assumptions here aren’t you buddy?” She crossed her arms in front of her, lips twisting into a mock frown, even as her eyes still seemed to smile. “Coming out here and calling me mischievous. The nerve! Meanwhile, you’re the one snooping around outside with a camera! Just in time to capture a big prank on film forever! I’d say that’s wayyyy more suspicious than some innocent girl in a tree.”

Evie’s expression changed back to that same grin, batting her eyes innocently before she flicked her gaze back to the crowd of students.

“Buuuut you might have a point. It’d probably be to skedaddle and leave the mystery of the culprit’s identity to someone else.”

With that, Evie straightened her legs, and simply fell from the tree. She flipped around mid-air, and gracefully landed on her feet, arms extended like a gymnast, facing Silas with a smug smirk.

Evie was never one to miss a chance to show off, evidently.

She took a step to the side, placing the tree between herself and the students, mostly hiding from view for the moment.

“Aaaaanyway. Laxatives in a coffee sounds like a great way to delay a test, but I think if a suspicious peeping tom with a camera were to try that they’d get caught right away! Now, if someone were to sneak into the teacher’s lounge, maybe slip a few into the coffee pot that they all drink out of during recess, I’d think there’d be a much more devastating result.”

Evie crossed her hands behind her back, rocking back and forth on her heels as she explained.

“But that wouldn’t happen, obviously. Since none of us have those special candies.”

She winked.

“Obviously.”
