coinoperated:

Artemis had been busy. She had gone to the mall several times, and watched three movies in theater. She'd completed all her academic assignments for the month. All that was left was to continue studying social behavior. She was, however, tired of the stares that accompanied her excursions outside. Perhaps that was why Artemis's parents had arranged for her to see Awesome Andrea, of the Fantastic Four.

Chronologically, Andrea was not too much older than Artemis but Andrea's maturity exceeded Artemis's by far. Aretmis was not sure exactly how she felt about that but if she were asked to describe it she might say "embarrassed."

Sammy was feeling restless. A different sort of restless than she was used to feeling. With several jobs under her belt, she wanted to take on another as soon as possible, but Mikel was holding her back. He said he'd call when it was time, but it was taking too long. Their father would hold her back and claim she was too young and inexperienced, but you don't get experience by burying yourself in school and following the rules. She wanted that degree, but she could do both. She was good. It was in the genes ... from him. They didn't have to like Nick Fury to use the abilities and training he'd given them.

She was tired of playing at being the perfect daughter as Mikel had instructed. She belonged with her brother and the others, but she was a member of his team and he told her to stay.

For now, she gathered food from the kitchen, a couple of beers from the fridge, and found a quiet corner to hit the books.
