"Please, we're omnipotent. Penn and Fabian are nothing compared to us."

I'm shivering in my boots. *She sighed.* Can I just say how glad I am that I'm going to be punished for telling the truth?

"No. It might have been the truth, but it wasn't your truth to tell."

It's a good thing you aren't a girl. I don't know how you'd deal with all the gossip.

"This isn't gossip, Scarlett, this is your family!"

I meant that gossip is just spreading around 'truth that isn't yours to tell.' *She rolled her eyes.* Go on, Daddy. Take Teddy's side, as usual, think up some punishment for me, let me carry it out, whatever. It doesn't matter.

Fitz groaned and muttered something about adolescents. Then he left his daughter's side and exited the room.

*Scarlett sat on her bed and fiddled with her hair, wondering if it would be a bad idea to go dye it black.*

**NEW DAY** *Scarlett lay on the floor of her room ( Like Izzie!), decked out in the family's new uniform of mourning black. Her hair spilled across the carpet, shimmering in the dim light working its way through her window. Apart from her hair, the only bit of color on her was her ring on its chain, which she fiddled with absentmindedly.*

Teddy sat down on the floor next to her. "That from him?" he asked absently.

Hmmm? *She looked up at him, her hand automatically closing around the ring for a moment before opening again.* Oh. Yeah, it's from Michael. *She smiled for a moment, her eyes far away.*

He forced a grin. "You're lucky. You've got somebody to keep you down on planet Earth."

I miss him so much. I wish he were here... *She sighed, still looking very far away. This was obviously much more than she had felt for Maxim- then, she had been too cartoonish, too insistent, too teenybopperish. Now it was something much deeper, something so much more than a girlish crush.* And don't look like that, Teddy. You have all of us- I don't know what I'd do without you. *She sat up, her curls falling back into place.*

He smiled. "What would I do without you, sis?" Teddy sighed. "Poor Penn. The kid's turned into a regular zombie."

Yeah, he has. I don't know what to do except give him space, though. *She glanced down at her hands- she was holding Michael's first letter tightly in her fist. She had forgotten that she was still holding it-she had been lost in a memory from Manderley.*
((Am trying to decide whether or not to have a Shocking Sex Talk. That might be traumatizing for her brother. But then again, they're pretty close. I dunno.))
