"Well, why should we argue about it? It makes more sense to argue about, like, where we should go play or something."

"Oh." She paused. "I guess it would, wouldn't it?"

She smiled and nodded. "Exactly. Besides, I think fighting over the blame isn't right if there's a problem that can be solved."

She smiled. "That all sounds fun—except the wolf part. I don't like killing animals. I'm a vegetarian."
