Summary
Marlene McKinnon is perfectly normal.
Marlene McKinnon likes boys, as all girls do. She's even got a boyfriend.
Marlene McKinnon has perfect control over her magic. And her emotions. She has perfect blond hair and perfect grades.
Dorcas Meadowes hates her for that – but it's fine, because Marlene McKinnon hates Dorcas too.
And Marlene definitely, definitely doesn't lie to herself about any of that.
Neither does Dorcas, for that matter.

or, a Dorlene Enemies to Almost Lovers to Enemies to Friends to Lovers slowburn where everyone lives <3
