clem is practically shaking with nerves. which in turn makes her only more nervous, considering she’s normally calm cool and collected. but its her first day at the salvatore school and she misses her mom’s cooking and her family arguing in a mix of sicilian, italian, and english. here...well the witches are cool towards her and the wolves are so far different from her werewolf siblings. it leaves her with the others, a far cry from the top of the food chain where she comfortably sat at her old school.

now she’s lost. turned around in the grounds surrounding the school, trying to calm herself a bit so she can find her way back to the main building. letting out a frustrated cry, she turns quickly when she hears the crunch of leaves behind her.

cassidy hadn’t been home in months. she’d communicated with her mom and younger sisters but her and clytemnestra didn’t exactly talk much to begin with. but she was turning 18 and that was a big deal, not to mention she was sure her mom would be a mess about the whole thing. zipping her bag closed, cassidy took a deep breath and met bucky by the front door. “i’m all good to go. it should only take us a few hours to drive there. and you’re gonna see a lot of weird shit once we get into town so just...be prepared,” she reminds him. her hand is linked with his right up until they get into the car, cass driving this time.

in the trunk was a gift she had spent the past several days slaving over. a hand bound journal in golden hues filled with spells and information that she knew clem would find valuable. but knowing her sister she probably wouldn’t much care for the thought and labor that went into it.
