TEST DRIVE MEME

> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters.
> The Mall. Exactly what it says on the tin! Dodge the hordes of teenage mallrats or take part, whichever suits your tastes.
> Rainy Day. Agh, it's fucking awful out. And is it raining those vermilion things?? Now you've got an Echo to contend with on top of everything else. Find some shelter, quick!
> PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, HOW FUN
> The most horribly kitschy Arts and Crafts Fair you can imagine.
> Wild Card! Make up your own.

"Oh, they're doing OUTRAGEOUSLY!" At least, he hoped that was the case. He needed to check on everyone now, didn't he? And there had been that mess with the big drug bust at the high school, and he was worried about Karl, but there was no need to give Granny any more reason to say he needed to go back home. "Some of us had Thanksgiving together like I said we would, and it was really nice!"

Ivy nods, even though she knows he can't see her. "But they need you to help them?"

"Well, yeah!" Okay, so he wasn't one of the ones who went out and planned things, but he helped out on missions and things! And he was always willing to give the others a meal or a place to sleep if they needed it. That counted for something.

Not like he knew how to tell Granny Curry his trained silverfish were important to a team of people trying to save the Earth from hostile aliens. "There's stuff they can't do without me! I'm the best swimmer out of all of us, you know, and I'm teaching some of the others! I mean, what if they were going out on a boat or something and fell off and weren't wearing a life jacket?"
