-->She could ask for so much. Tell her to get a job to help her pay the rent, ask her to cuddle with her at night and stay when daylight hit, explain to Chick and the others that she wasn't horrible or a flake, just her life was fucked at the moment.\\

The copy of her face lit up, grinning like a little girl who'd got a pony for Christmas. “I'll cut your name into their skin.”
