The possibilities for Sabi, in I Told You So, to mess with people concerning her clairvoyance are numerous.
Especially people who aren't as familiar with her mischief.
Like, Ingo.
Man gets jumped by her (she jumps off of Braviary's back to land in front of him) en route to the Pearl Clan settlement, and is suddenly being informed that she saw his future and it is bleak. Bleak and white. So much white. A veritable blizzard coming his way. He would do well to be cautious... so much snow. So much!
It's genuinely disconcerting, especially with how insistent she's being.
Then Emmet comes up behind him and dumps a bucket of snow over his head.
Sabi starts giggling.
He looks over his shoulder and Emmet bolts, but his retreat isn't fast enough to escape the snowball pitched full-force at the back of his head. It sends Emmet face-first into the snow.
Sabi tries to run only for Ingo to grab her hood (gently) and stuff a handful of snow down the back of her tunic. Naughty little pranksters get tastes of their own medicine.
More snowballs ensue because Emmet can't just not retaliate -- the lust for competition with one's siblings runs deep, remaining even when amnesia has taken the specifics.
Later, Calaba yells at the lot of them as they huddle, soaked and shivering with fevers, in her tent at the settlement. Sabi, she can understand, but Ingo and Emmet are both full-grown adults -- and Wardens, besides! This sort of behavior is entirely unfitting of them. She should kick the two of them out to suffer back to health in their own quarters. Maybe that would teach them a lesson.
(It would not. She knows it wouldn't. Those two men have always brought out a certain streak of mischief in each other, for some reason).
(The three of them fall asleep in a pile, content despite their fevers).
