Things were weird.
Those three words could sum up Thea's Darrow experience. Weird-scary, weird-silly, weird-crazy, it didn't matter. All that mattered was that they were weird, and that the one person who seemed to make them feel normal was her tall, magic-wielding friend. Which was strange in itself, but Thea had stopped questioning those things. It had honestly felt as if forever had passed since she had normal friends who weren't there just because of her last name and what they wanted.
Molly couldn't care about any of that. She had her own family issues, and they were utterly unlike anything Thea experienced. It was possibly what brought them together -- that their lives were so different and yet they understood what it was to be both a warrior and completely shaped by who their parents were.
Today was going to be as normal a day as either of them could hope -- Darrow willing. Ice skating up at Kagura couldn't go that wrong. Thea strapped on her rented skates and grinned up at her friend. "Who do you think is faster?"
