Library, Sunday

[gavegoodface]

Face was still a little on the back foot about the whole teenage daughter thing, but after swinging into town to get breakfast for them both, he'd brought Adra in to help him with his library shift. It definitely wasn't because he didn't trust her, despite her suggestions otherwise.

It was because he didn't trust trust the boys (and some of the girls) on the island.

Cassandra considered that.

Then she turned to Face. "Don't worry," she said dryly, "No one genuinely believes you have the power to destroy the universe."

"Clearly someone does, or they wouldn't have warned her."

Face, it didn't count when that person was you.

"I believe I have some idea who might think you were capable of such a thing," Cassandra said, "And phrase it in such a way."

Could you read the 'it's probably you' from the wryly amused look on her face, oh master reader of facial expressions?

Yes, yes he could.

"Obviously someone incredibly wise," Face declared airily.

"Hardly," Cassandra decided.

"Everyone's a critic," Face grumbled, even as Adra snickered.
