Ingress sits on the floor of the family room, her back against the well-worn couch. She's busy illustrating another of her books with the markers from her skinny marker set out. They came in a box! She loves her giant box of markers.
She hears the rustle of someone coming through a painting. It's Door. She can always tell when her sister enters a room. It's the sound of her skirts.
"Hi Door! Oh, a rat came by earlier and said the next floating market is at the Tower of London in two days. Can you take me? I want to go by the stall where the lady with orange hair has books. I know just which one I'm getting for Tom for Christmas."
She's still coloring as she talks, which is why she hasn't noticed the odd look on her sister's face.
ingress,
