"It is." Absinthe nods. "But I learned there was an entire world outside of even metas. Demons and magic? Still sounds outrageous."

It's possible to have missed it. Absinthe wasn't even sure if it was broadcast or how well-known it was outside of Chicago.

Eve thought back as far as she could but ended up shaking her head. "I was really young. Six, then. I'm sure it was talked about, but I didn't watch much TV and kind of... lived sheltered. By the time I would have heard about it, it had probably all blown over."

The thought of hearing about the demons and hellfire made her slightly uncomfortable. "That's all so crazy! It's hard to believe that so much happened that I just... don't know about!"

It made her think of her conversation with Jack about the Empire... which reminded her of the war. Sighing, Evie nodded. "Well, I'm glad we live in this time line, then."

Instead of answering right away, she takes the time to think about it. "A happy one. I'd like a husband and a kid or two. A life where my family can be safe. I want to help people." That seems so... blase. So boring. Still, she was smiling. "I don't want the fame and the glory. I just want people to be happy. And a family."

It took her a little while before she finally nodded. "I've found the best, most accepting people here. If they want to be a part of Paradigm, I don't think I would stop them. I honestly think this place would be great for a kid to grow up in." Then, she chuckled to herself. "Plus, I don't think I plan on leaving any time soon."

Absinthe chuckles softly. "As a school, it's the best place for them to be themselves. We've had a lot of students grow up and take normal every day jobs rather than become agents. The ways they learned to cope and control their powers helped them live normal, safe lives." Just a fun little fact.

"Are your kids planning on becoming agents? I've only met Liam, and he's obviously a little too young, but you have older ones, don't you?"

Absinthe laughs, recalling that. "I think Terry is seriously considering it, now. He's struggling because he's at that awkward age where making friends isn't as simple. He can be pretty shy so he's worried about fitting in as an agent surrounded by new people." Absinthe can't help but smile as she talks about her children. "Jack told him he could start next year, at earliest. It's all he talks about now, so I think he knows what he wants. The rest of them are too young, but our youngest is...learning magic."

It was fun!" Evie laughs with her. "I hope it's everything Terry hopes it to be, then! I understand being shy, but as far as I can tell, this place is good for that! I've made a few really good friends here, and I wouldn't trade these experiences for the world." She smiled, then chuckled as she thought about the youngest. "Magic? That seems really exciting!"
