"Here are your cake and cookies! Would you like to help as well?"

We're the best!!!

Into Fred and George's Custard Cremes I can't hear you! ARE YA READY KIDS?

"What kinds do you have?"

Exactly. I don't have any jeans, nor have I ever had any, but they do it on other kinds of pants too.

"Um . . . that's kind of made of reinforced steel. I'd appreciate it if you tried NOT to damage it! Funny, that wasn't a very likely possibility in my visions. Hello, DQ! Welcome to my house! Cake or cookies?"

Thank you for that compliment, Awak Salad! You deserve another compliment, so . . . this is the best one I know--You seem like a very-well-read person!

Zola kept running and smashing more windows. "But we're going to the Lord Ruler's sanctum!"

Yeah, I'm kind of a girly girl at times. Amity, Erudite and Candor are all girly girls.

"I'm just being careful! This way if the automated lockdown engages, no matter where I am, I can get to the bunker!"

Can you find any pineapples under the sea? I'd like to go there to meet a sea sponge. Are ya ready kids?

I can relate with that except for the strong and confident part. Srsly tho, I'm really good at second-guessing myself. What's your opinion on makeup?

I don't know you that well, but for that, you deserve a compliment. Awakened Salad, you are a very awesome person who I wish I knew better! I also haven't seen many of your posts but the ones I have seen are so positive, they brighten my day! You deserve a thumbs up!

"Um, the future? I have precognitive and telepathic ablilities. I have visions of the things that can happen in the future. Less likely ones are easier to push away, but the more likely they get, the less I can ignore them. I can't ignore them when there's about a 65% chance of them happening, by my reckoning, but I can prevent them by doing something different. I do have a weakness, though. I keep some in the bunker, just in case I need it."

"Well, over here is my bedroom, with a secret passage to the bunker, then here's the bathroom, with a secret passage to the bunker, here's the family room, the secret passage to the bunker is over there, just pull on that thing, here's the guest bedroom, the towel rung lets you into the bunker, and in the closet, if you pull this book under the towels, you can get into the bunker. The kitchen is over here, with a secret passage to the bunker in the fridge, and in the living room, you push this combination of keys to get into the secret bunker. In the entry hall, there's no entry into the secret bunker, but in the dining room, all you have to do is knock the silverware collection off-kilter and you can get into the secret bunker. I know it does seem like a lot of entrances into the secret bunker, but they can all be blocked using my control panel in the secret bunker." Tion smiles and leads the way back into the family room. "There's also a lot of secret hiding places for candy, but I'll know if you're going to find any." "I find that the majority of the attacks that will happen around me are by this one group, Villin and Eivel Corporation for Child Welfare. I've been thinking I could get some people to help me look into it, and all of a sudden, here you guys are! Are you willing to help me?"

I can imagine!

The mousy-looking girl starts drawing something on her notebook as she waits for the waitress to respond.

"Oh, I have an underground bunker to retreat to when this house is breached. It's less comfortable, but it's safer! Sometimes when the visions won't stop I go there, and they get better." Tion smiles. "Would you like a tour?"

"No, we're not IN the bunker, we're above it. I turned off the security protocols because I was fairly certain he would be dropping in."

My gosh. I have a lot of weird stories about boys, but none THAT weird!

"Oh hey Truth! Aren't you glad I knew you would do that and didn't turn on the sniper rifles this morning? Would you like some cake? I also have cable and Netflix!" Tion beckons to Truth, not noticing the threat? she just delivered.

Sure! Speak up!
