Only a few of them still live at home, but today they ve all come over for breakfast. All of them, that is, except Marcus. Yet, for such a large family it s unusually quiet, and the clatter of silverware on china makes the lack of conversation even more conspicuous.

It s not the end of the world, she grumbles. Just the end of us. You re beautiful when you re nihilistic, says the smirker. Shut up. You re only saying that because you don t know what nihilistic means. Risagives Connor a look, and he knows what she s thinking. We have to suffer through four days with this crew?
