 Anashti l Brat Pack l Sally & Dr. Finklestein
He didn’t remind her enough, but Gilly truly was top tier of sister’s. It was true his opinion was biased, but he’d still fight for it to the death (or more likely until he cried). He knew how important reading and learning new things was and how easy it was for her to get into it - and yet the fact she was willing to put it aside for him spoke volumes to the boy. But he was too excited about the other thing to get properly mush about that at the moment.
Maybe later.
He was truly SO excited and that euphoria just continued to grow as the look on her face. Had he found something she hadn’t known already? Drake wasn’t used to being the one to contribute to the shared knowledge. He opened his mouth to keep going about the things he’d read in the book (including the names of places that he hadn’t heard of before - like… where was the Waste?) until she had the book in her hands.
Wait… fiction?? A reader, he was not. And while it was true he proooobably could have figured out there was some things written in books that weren’t TRUE it wasn’t a thought he consciously had. Like… the whole Professor’s not having ALL of the knowledge thing. “.... Why is it in a book if it isn’t true?? That seems like false advertising!”
