Scott has just finished up a day at school and is looking for a quiet afternoon on the rez.
Quil is trying to argue with Embry about some dumb show they're watching, and he just listens, trying not to laugh.
He sips his soda.

Fernanda stands up. "Okay, we need to tell Henry about the threat so he can tell the High-library to be on the look out."
Henry wants some basic information about vampires so he can report what they're supposed to expect.
Gabe whispers a comment about feeling left out being the only one present without a facedouble.
"Fast, strong, smell like flowers to humans, drink blood, really strong poison...they hunt in small groups, two or three at a time."
"They don't burn. Everything about them makes humans want to see more. They smell sweet, they sparkle in the sunlight, even their voices sound good. To humans."
"I'm okay. Trying to think about what we can do together. Healing people. Not other stuff."
"Fernanda is the best person I know. I doubt there is a single human being in all known multiverse that is so invested in improving the entire thing. She can come off as cold to people that don't know her well, but the truth is that she is very strong-willed, determined, compassionate, logical and brilliant. She will do her best to improve the quality of life in your tribe and like succeed at it."
"Maybe like her but less so? I try to compensate by being more diplomatic and a people's person. How about you?"
"I'm not really good at describing myself. All of my friends are telepathic. Um, I can tell you how they used to describe me?"
"Warm, naive, earnest, hard-working, goofy, self-sabotaging, compassionate, boring, determined, nice. Depending on who you ask."
"So am I going to be a lab rat soon, or should we find something to do until then?"
Third option: Fernanda returns and wants to talk with Scott alone again, assuming that he agrees (and this is a very reasonable assumption given imprinting). She gets them alone and says. "Okay, I didn't mention this sooner because it is as much as Katur's secret as ours. Please, don't make negative assumptions and don't be mad on my behalf, but Katur is also my boyfriend as well as Felicia's."
"Yes, we're not dating each other..," Fernanda says dryly, then she remembers to be more patient and says. "Sorry for that."
