He nodded at the red-haired girl with Nico. She looked familiar to him. "Your brother has a girlfriend?" Cope wasn't exactly sure how he felt about that, but he recognized that it had nothing to do with him or his feelings.
"Because of my last name." Celandine repeated, her lips shifting from pout to smile in an instant. "Always, do you think?" She asked lightly. So long as it was his radar, Cela was happy.
Girlfriend?
"She has a tortoise. She's Briony's friend." You know, Briony the sister-in-law? "She gave me a carrot once."
No. Cela didn't get it either.
"I like her though." She observed them. "They keep touching each other."
