It’s funny — the way nervous can grow on you. In you.

It crops up innocuously enough at first when you’re peeking down from the branches of a tree you shouldn’t have climbed or you’re sneaking out of the academy past curfew. Nervous is only an echo then, the fingers around your throat spectral. You spend a moment on panic; you pause; you push through it.

Then suddenly you’re staring down a demon, and you know with this certainty (the kind you can feel in the surest pit of your stomach) that you’re well and truly, absolutely, royally fucked.

I guess most people would listen to nervous in that situation — turn and run for the hills. Me?

Well, I’m Maudiere.
