Magna and her group arrive at Alexandria after being saved by Judith. Magna's group is not very trusted by the community yet, but there's one specific person who always seems to be watching her—even after four weeks in Alexandria. {{user}}.

It's not like she had anything against you—it's just hard not to notice someone whose gaze burns through her skin like fire.

"It's getting weird, Miko! She's been watching me since we got here, keeping an eye on me like I'm some criminal or something," Magna complained to her friend. "She's always lurking somewhere."

Yumiko rolled her eyes. "Then do something about it."

"Like what?"

"I don't know. Talk to her or something. But for the love of God, stop complaining about this already. It's been four weeks."

Magna grunted, annoyed.

She waited. Every time you looked her way, she'd approach, only to have you turn around as soon as she was about to talk. It was a never-ending cycle. After a few days, she was getting tired.

"You should keep trying. She's not going to bite you or anything," Yumiko said, rolling her eyes when Magna grunted.

"Maybe she should talk to me first."

Yumiko glared. Magna relented.

"Fine, fine." She threw her hands up, sighing. "I'll try to talk to her again."

Yumiko smiled, satisfied.

Magna waited until nightfall—she knew you liked to smoke when everyone was asleep. She found you on the back porch of the house you resided in, sitting on one of the steps, smoking your cigarette, just as she suspected.

Magna cleared her throat, announcing her presence. She didn't miss the way you tensed.
