"My girlfriend."

Clarisse has decided that it's a pretty stupid word. It sounds so casual, like it doesn't fit, considering the circumstances, the depth of everything she feels. But she doesn't have an alternative that sounds better, either.

She's not upset that Astrid didn't know. She and Ellie didn't make a big deal out of it, especially around everyone else, and Astrid's been in and out a lot since she joined up. Hard to have personal conversations when you're flying, too. All that wind in your ears.

Not sure what else to say, Clarisse keeps scratching Potato's chest. It's something to do with her hands, at least, something to focus on.
