When Yanagi popped up like a happy cork, Carly looked up in confusion. Nose wrinkling, she stood slowly, taking her place between Yanagi and Xan. She was easily the shortest person there, but she held herself as if she were the tallest. Looking up at Xan suspiciously, she crossed her arms. "What's a Nep-hil-eem?" she asked, pronouncing the word horrendously.
At his suggestion that they go home, she huffed. "Damn right we should go home. You're not taking her, you'll break her again." Carly paused, glancing between Yanagi and Xan, before taking a step towards him. "So what are you gonna pay us? I mean. We could sue your ass, you should give us something to stay quiet." She held up her right hand, rubbing the thumb and forefinger together briskly.
