“Whew,” he said. “You clean up good. You don’t look like the same girl.”She frowned right before she laughed. “Do women usually thank you for saying things like that?”

“The longer you look the more you see," said the twins at the same time, "the more you see, the less you are.”

“You look like a Goth factory exploded all over you!" he called as she ran down the hall."Love you, too, jackass!”

"What do you think, David?"He peered into her eyes for a long moment, then sighed and shook his head. "You just look like Tally to me."She looked down, her vision blurring.What's the matter?"Nothing, David." She shook her head. "You just took on five million years of evolution again."I what?
