PUT OFF Rebecca. On a MISS, beg Marina to help her instead (FAVOR).

⚁⚅ - 2 = 6, Miss.

On a Miss, Rebecca throws an embarrassing fit. Expend Marina's FAVOR to get her out of your hair.

"It's taken us WEEKS to get you to cast that stupid Binding Vines!" Rebecca protests. "I was embarrassed in front of the class, and now you want to go sulk in the library? You owe me after all I went through for you!"

You sigh. "Rebecca, I need a rest. Please. You think I'm not feeling bad about all that?"

"YOU weren't the one with the Binding Vines groping YOUR arse!" Rebecca retorts. "I just want someone to help ME."

Marina, blinking, looks out of the door of the dormitory bedroom she shares with Rebecca.

"Golondrina puts me through the wringer because she can't cast the stupid Binding Vines," Rebecca complains at Marina, "And now she won't help ME with my conjuration exercises."

"Marina," you say. "I can't now. Would you? I'm just tired."

Marina looks toward the ceiling, not quite rolling her eyes. "All right, Golondrina. This time. For you." She motions for Rebecca to come closer. "So, Rebecca, tell me what this one is?"

You retreat to your bedroom, which you happily do not have to share, and crawl into bed, wondering about DREAM SENDING and Dorothy.

Dorothy the Porter, Marina Madeline, Housemaster Fergus Firetail, and Miss Wormwood are your FRIENDS. Dorothy and Miss Wormwood each owe you one FAVOR. Your serpent familiar Sapienta also counts as a FRIEND.
