It reminded me of what Dad said after every snail’s crawl home from Albany when snow hit.“It’s New York, people. It’s winter. We get snow. If you aren’t prepared to deal with it, move to Miami.

And unless I'm remembering it wrong, mermaids don't sing and sirens don't swim. Ariel sang in 'The Little Mermaid', Corey said. Sam came over to join us. Do I even want to know why you remember her name?

He wore sweatpants and a T-shirt and had stopped in the middle of the hall, furiously scratching one bare forearm. Fleas? I said.

The stairs aren't challenging enough anymore? he asked. Antonio laughed. Challenge has nothing to do with it, Jer. I'd say it's the big bad wolf huffing and puffing at her door up there.

This is so cool, I said loudly as Dad walked away. Have you met the tattoo artist? Is he hot? He's a she, Mom said. Is she hot? Cause I'm still young, you know. My sexual identity isnt fully formed. Your father can't hear you anymore, Maya. Mom sighed.

Lavina led me to an abandoned warehouse. I think that at some point someone decreed that all clandestine meetings must be held in one. Woe to the criminal overlord who lives in a city thriving with commerce, with no empty warehouses to be found. He probably needs to build one, just to have a place to arrange late-night meetings.

He's having a vision, I said. That's what happens. (Maya) Attractive, I know, Corey said between gritted teeth. And now I get new witnesses to my humiliation. Wonderful. We're used to it, Chloe said. Derek used to do that when he Changed. Only worse. Thank you for sharing, Derek muttered. She grinned. You're welcome.

We'll meet you here. Hopefully everyone will be in human form. A wry smile. Though I'll warn you, he's not a whole lot more pleasant that way. At least as a wolf, he can't talk.
