The world was suddenly in high-definition. Amelia was giddy. The realization, the shared history, was electrifying. "Wait, Camp Silver Pines? You were actually there?" she asked, her voice tinged with amazement. This information had her heart doing jumping jacks.

"I can't believe it! I was in the Bear cabin! Remember the counselors dressed up as pirates on the last day? Oh my gosh!" She was practically bubbling over with excitement.
