Drop an image or two, or an idea, or even just a starter if you want, this is where all those things go, plus where I'll move things from memes when they need to be pinned down.
Oh, I can. You don't have to say anything about it. But I figure it'll give you a chance to scope out the yard and make sure you think it'll work before I start bugging him about it.
Oh! Yes, that does make more sense. [Her brow creases a moment later] We'll have to be quick about it, though, if mom thinks I've been gone too long she'll probably call the reference desk to have them look for me, and if they don't find me, it means she knows when to expect me home by.
[Chrissy doesn't particularly like the woman either, especially with the changes that have been made in the household since Chrissy's worldview was irrevocably altered. But for the time being, it isn't like she really has a choice but to fall in line like always.]
Actually, let's stop at the reference desk on the way out.
[It's a quick conversation with the librarian, one Chrissy's familiar with -and who she knows is familiar enough with her family situation- to make a request of 'if my mom calls in the next ten or fifteen minutes, can you please tell her I'm still here, just in the bathroom or something? I need to buy myself a little longer to get home.' And with the promise made that neither she or Max are planning on starting trouble, the librarian assures them that she'll do just that, and Chrissy relaxes visibly] Thanks Denise, I owe you one.
