She shakes the fabric bunched up in her hands even harder. Follow along, Horror BFF!! "Yes! That's what it means! Ugh! We have to get you more sci-fi movies when we get back!" Kamala lets go so she can put her hands onto her hips. She's onto Frank!!! "I bet you know it too! Stop teasing me and start thinking about all the cool stuff we're going to do when we get back. Also remember to not let that one kid murder whoever is holding us here. He's like really down with dismembering bad people. It kind of worries me."

"I... okay. Maybe I'm not the best No-Murder posterchild you could find, though." He's in rare form today. "What kid is this anyway?" 👀👀📝

[morphogenia]

"Okay point taken, but I think you'd be nice enough not to let someone dismember our captors in front of me so you get the job." Kamala huffs like this is all super offensive to her. "And his name is Fern. He's the one who looks like he'd be Alec's son because he's made of plants until you remember that's kind of offensive to plant people."

[oorah]

"I've never met him." Which kind of... bewilders him a moment, honestly. A kid showed up and he wasn't tripping over himself to do something about it?? This is either progress or he's been seriously distracted, probably both. "I'm sure you're doin' a good job keeping an eye on him, Kamala." He crouches down to be closer to her eye-level before going on. "Look, I know you... got used to me doing a lot of stuff for you in Reims. But we talked about this, right? If you need me to step in, I for sure will, don't misunderstand me. But give yourself some credit. Obviously, your Ammi does."

"Seriously?" Kamala asks because it is hard to believe. He always seems to know every kid. Maybe this is progress? They did talk about this. She did agree. That doesn't make her any less scared to step up when a strange boy is involved.

Kamala sighs deeply as she realizes she needs to get over it. She is capable. He did listen to her at the party. She can't spend her life running to Frank whenever she's worried she won't be enough. "You're right. I get so nervous I'll mess it up that I forget I've dealt with crazier stuff." Her expression softens as it starts to hit home just how right Frank is. Her mother hasn't doubted her for a second, has she? "I have such a great Ammi."

He shrugs. Apparently!!! But when she gets to the end he just grins and grabs her shoulder to pull her into a sideways hug. "Yeah, kid, you do."
