[ Apparently that statement was so unprompted that it manages to catch the girl by total surprise. At least she manages to not instinctively halt in the middle of the stairs, still moving up as she grows quiet for a moment to think, but she definitely didn't see it coming.
.. even though she should have, Olympia figures now she's actually thinking about it. Of course this sort of thing would be important enough to Alec to bring it up now. If their positions had been reversed and Olympia had been the one to accidentally use her powers, wouldn't she also worry about everyone getting to know that..? ]

Maybe it's why her voice sounds a little more steady as she says it, because she really means it and truly believes in it. ]
No matter what happens.. I'll keep it a secret. I wouldn't want to do anything to change people's impression of you. [ She says, as if Alec isn't entirely capable of being a little gremlin and ruining people's impression of him all by himself.. ]
