“We can talk about that later,” I told him, “My priority right now is Grue.”
Coil nodded.
Good, let’s focus on the here and now.
I glanced down at Cherish. “Hope Bonesaw reinforced your teeth while she was fixing you up.”
Trust me, Cherish, Skitter just went easy on you. She could’ve brought a whole swarm of bugs down on you if she wanted to, but she wasn’t going to give you the satisfaction of such a big reaction.
“She did,” Cherish muttered, one hand to her mouth.
Heh.
I kicked her in the head once more for good measure, and then turned away, my hands raised to assure the others I was done.
Skitter has come a long way from the good girl who helplessly hid in bathrooms.
For better or worse.
