Hi, everyone. [ a quick, cheerful wave and matching smile. ] I'm Caroline Forbes, and I was wondering if I can help anybody here with anything.

Back home, I'm basically my town's event-coordinator and the junior head of community service. Additionally, I'm an experienced sober coach [ ha. ] and a relatively experienced life coach [ unlife coach. ]. So, if you're suffering from the turtle island blues, then I can totally help you change your tune. I also happen to be a grade 'A' body guard [ which may be surprising, considering her...everything. ] and an awesome shopping buddy.

I'm kind of a superhero, too, I guess, except more super than hero. [ another smile. She's fitting in with the crowd. There are plenty of superheroes around, right? Nothing special to see here. ] I mean, I don't really do much for the greater good, but I can mess with people's dreams — and I know that a lot of you guys have bad insomnia or suffer from nightmares, at least.

So, if you'd like to, y'know, dream of fluffy kittens and rainbows for a change, I can help with that.

[What even is this kid. The most skeptical face, witness it.]

You're a bodyguard. You got references for that?

[ Don't judge a book by its cover, Guy. ]

Uh, yeah, and no body I've guarded has come out worse for wear. [ so there. ]

My references are still in Virginia, though, sorry. They missed the magic turtle boat.

[He scoffs a little at 'magic turtle boat' - sue him, it's funny.]

When'd you learn to bodyguard, in between cheerleading and drama club?

[Uh huh.]

Sober coach. Is that what they call it where you're from.

[always harshing her mellow.] What do you mean? Isn't that what everyone calls it?

Only when it involves alcohol. [As opposed to blood.]

[There are some magical words in this post.] Shopping buddy?

[ Her smile widens. ] Shopping buddy. Interested? [ please say yes. ]

[yes yes yes yes.] I'm so interested. Wandering around markets and stores by yourself is really depressing.

I'll vouch for your bodyguard skills and your superness if anyone doubts them.

You have dream manipulation powers too?

[ the dorkiest little smile. ] Thanks, Victor. I appreciate it.

And, yeah, I kind of won the superpower lottery.

No, thank you for saving my backside.

[He smiles.] You know, I've heard that a lot in the past. Every power has a downside to it though.

My, aren't you multi-talented.

You need varied extracurriculars if you want to succeed in life.

[ Not that these are actually extracurricular, but details. ]

If those are your extracurriculars, you must go to a fascinating school.

Ma'am, that's an impressive list of feats, yeah.

[He might be using the address on purpose. Just because.]

'More super than hero'? How's that work?

[She has no problem with that.]

I have superpowers, but I don't do much heroing. I mean, if stuff happens when I'm around, count me in, but I don't go looking for evil to thwart.

I guess that's fair enough.

So, what do you go looking for?

Kinda sounds like you've got a lot going on, already.

Back home? Definitely. Here? [ the frustration is evident in her voice. ] I literally have nothing to do.

The "whatever you want" wears off a little fast, huh.

Can you do anything else?

[In terms of mental powers, he means.

Like, maybe in terms of curing chronic headaches.]

[ a small sigh. ] Um, I can go into weird, mind control-y territory, but I don't like to do that. For obvious reasons.

[Oh Grantaire's been listening, and he's siding with Dean on this one.] I've a feeling that a proper addict would break your spirit, ma'amoiselle.

[ casually. ] Really? Because history says otherwise.

[ looking at you, Stefan "Ripper" Salvatore. ]
