"Only twenty?" Tseng almost managed the slightest hint of a smile at that. It hadn't been a bad evening.

Mrs. Sheffield clearly didn't believe in things like productivity.

What sort of Turk would he be, if he needed keys to get into his own office, anyway?

"I hope you're not expecting me to go back," Elena said lightly. "It'd be depressing to change back into the suit just to file."
