written hastily during the racing event

MS. TREETOPS GOT INFECTED BY THE PURPLE FLOWERS. I SAW HER PUT HER HAND ON THE GRILL FIRE AND SMILE AT ME AS MORE PURPLE FLOWERS GREW IN HER HAIR. SHE KNOWS I KNOW AND SHE DOESN'T EVEN CARE. I ALMOST FAINTED BUT NOT FOR REGULAR REASONS. BECAUSE OF FLOWER MAGIC, PROBABLY.

ALSO, POCKET KNOWS I KNOW AND TRIED TO DISTRACT ME. not even TRIED, she DID distract me, there was not an option.

and now you all know, too.

Those purple flowers and the whole 'family emergency' thing were pretty sketchy anyway. Guess it's good to have confirmed that she's probably an evil flower person now.

Not great about Pocket.

do adults not see it? at all? something has been so obviously off about her, this fire-touching-and-grinning just confirms what we already suspected.

Maybe - they all do seem a little messed up. When Zadie and I went to talk to Ranui about Ms. Gunzenhauser and Ms. Treetops when she was still missing, he at least seemed to take the weird voice in Charms semi-seriously. He gave the same family emergency excuse for Ms. Treetops. I don't know why no one told us before then, though.

I mean ain't it her personal business if it's a family emergency?

Totally, but Winter told them she was worried about her, right? Why wouldn't they at least tell her that they'd been in contact and she was fine? Maybe they were trying to be polite to her or whatever, but it seems dumb.
