Oh.

Lovely.

Now Lexi felt sort of awkward. Since Sage had walked in, all the conversation had been between he and Hecate. Maybe she should make a...little exit, hmm? She placed her cup on a little table and stood from her chair, trying to find the best way to announce her leave.

...and that was when Lexi heard it---mention of poison! With all the talk of dead husbands, Lexi was only left to assume the worst. She wasn't leaving now, nope. Poor Sage wouldn't even live long enough to see the next potato grow from his garden if she left now!

So despite how awkward she suddenly felt, Lexi decided that she wouldn't--couldn't--leave Sage and Hecate alone. She stepped away from the chair and moved to an area closer to where Sage and Hecate were. Why hadn't Sage even replied to her hello yet? Was he really that into Hecate?
