Danae thought really hard for a moment. "She was usually out later than that." She
said at length, "But I saw her car when I got home. The blue one in the garage." She
looked at the woman, who seemed very concerned, more concerned than she thought people
who played with dead people got. "It's not as bad as you must think. I've always liked
the freedom. All my friends have to report to thier parents like crazy, but I can do
whatever I like without caring." She shrugged.
((Good! That's what I'm trying to make her seem like! =) Being this age helps, even
though I have the opposite on parents.))
