He brought his knees to his chest and hugged them.
"Came to laugh at me some more?" Why not. It seemed to be the highlight of the night so far.
Hmmmmmmmm. Miranda frowned, looking at the other girls.
Torin's question and their answers made her thiiiiiink. Had they laughed at him. That way SO not cool.
Okay, this dress was like...snug, and she really wanted to sit down next to Torin. Well...her shoes had not stopped her from walking, so HA!
Putting a hand to Torin's shoulder, it might've seen like a nice gesture, but really, it was to keep her from falling over as she lowered herself down and sat down next to the boy.
"No one's going to laugh at you." You know why?
"I'll make sure they don't." She wasn't a badger for nothing, and badgers were a protective bunch. She eyed the girls, wondering what they would do next.
