## History

### Season 2

#### *Stacking the Rules*

**Mya**: "*Winter wanted to give you this [paper].*"
**Cassandra**: "*Thanks, Winter.*"
―Cassandra thanking Winter for her gift
Cassandra is confronted by Shetani outside Mr. Alann's art room, worrying Evie and Mya. The latter believes Shetani accidentally forgot she was deaf and needed to wear headphones, thinking she might have been accused of breaking the rule banning music. Evie shares her concern as well, mentioning that Cassandra isn't a student to be pushed around. Suddenly, Shetani bellows that she will make new rules, concerning both students. Later, after leaving the school, Evie, Mya, and Winter encounter Cassandra by the fence bordering to the sports field, and using her knowledge of sign language, Mya asks her if Shetani did anything. She responds not much, though she was startled. Winter gifts her a hand-made drawing, and Cassandra thanks her before walking off. As they follow Evie home, Mya and Winter talk about Cassandra, and Winter reveals that she gave the deaf student a paper that invited her to help them rebel against Shetani. Mya remarks that she is known to support good causes and would probably help them.

#### *Rushing Roulette*

"*Thank you, Winter. I'm going to head home now. Nice seeing you!*"
—Cassandra thanking Winter

Cassandra, feeling mischievious, sneaks up on Evie and Winter at Pinelake Park. She surprises them, and Evie unknowingly strikes her on the cheek, calling who she believes to be a stranger out for the prank. Instead, Winter hits her as well, scolding her for striking Cassandra. Gasping, Evie steps back and immediately apologizes, and the deaf girl presumes she is apologetic. She gets up, greeting them and saying that she is looking for her lost bracelet. Using her phone, Winter communicates to Cassandra, telling her that Mya is missing. She states that she's going to the Piney Woods to look for the bracelet, and they all agree to go together to look for it and Mya. While heading there, Cassandra reassures Evie that they'll find Mya, making her smile. She remains quiet as they enter the woods, and she catches up to Evie, along with Winter, after she takes off. Reaching Winter's old cabin, Winter ascends up the steps and finds the bracelet, giving it back to Cassandra, who then heads home.

#### *Devil's Dungeon*

Winter reassures Mya that she already sent her existing evidence to Cassandra and their other allies.

#### *Your Pain is My Pleasure: Part 1*

Cassandra is one out of many making up the army that hears Winter's rallying cry at Pinelake Park. Later, Evie mentions that while she isn't here with them, she's preparing something special.

#### *Your Pain is My Pleasure: Part 2*

It is revealed that Cassandra was asked to cover *Monster*, Amira's song, as a present for her. Touched by her kind act, Amira asks that someone tell her that she's happy with the cover, and Winter says she will.

## Personality

Cassandra is depicted as a friendly and sweet girl who is not bothered by her disability. She is not a girl to push over, and like Mya, is sensitive. Despite being pushed around by Shetani in *Stacking the Rules*, she isn't startled by her at all. It is noted that she is fond of good causes and works to support them. She is also shown to be resourceful, helpful, and mischievious. Cassandra is very forgiving, as shown when she accepts Evie's apology in *Rushing Roulette*.
