Elliot snickered at his sister's antics as they moved toward the ticket office. She was jamming it up, but he was pleased to see her so happy. She was his brat and he enjoyed it. "I know, I know, she's so mine, right," he said to Carrie, grinning and shaking his head

"There are lots," she chirped, beaming brightly, then continued in a light, little sing-song as they followed El to the counter. "I'm cute and sweet and adorable and smart and..." She meeped again as Carrie poked her gently in the side. "An' stop that! Hey!" Ducking behind Nellie, she peeked around her side, and stuck her tongue out at Carrie and her brother both. "I should get three cookies for this," she muttered, voice playful, and pretended to look at them in calculation. "One for the each of you!"

She grabbed a map from the stand, and opened it, wriggling her nose as she scanned it. "I think we go upstairs? That's where the special exhibition space is." Looking up and twisting her head around - it was a really popular exhibit, her Journal teacher had said - she raised an eyebrow, because there had to be signs all over, ri-... "Ah-ha!" Belle pointed at one. "See?"

Making a small sound of protest, she finished pulling out her membership pass - one of her gifts from Uncle Matthew for Christmas - and leaned across Elliot to hand it to the cashier before he could finish the transaction. "Members get in free while the Stock Show's running," she murmured in explanation over her shoulder, eyes not raising as the boy rang her through the discount process. "But thank you." She smiled up at him and reached down to squeeze his hand quickly, then took her pass back and stepped back to slide it into her wallet, grateful she'd managed to scramble it out before he'd gotten charged for her when he didn't need to be.

She took a step over to plop her chin on Belle's shoulder for a brief moment, then lifted it again when she started to look around the museum. "I think you're right, but I'm not..." Carrie smirked as she caught sight of the sign to which Belle was pointing. "So then, I guess we go that way?"

Elliot pulled a face right back at his sister when she stuck her tongue out at him. "Now worries, girly, everyone will be getting cookies later, after we eat lunch," Elliot said, chuckling softly. "Don't know that you'll get three, but you'll get at least one." He reached out a long arm to poke gently at her around Nellie.

"Oh, sorry, love, didn't know you had one," he murmured apologetically. "Too intent on treating my girls right." His eyes crinkled faintly at the corners as he looked down at her softly, tucking his wallet back in his pocket, hand going to rest on her lower back. He couldn't help touching her, even lightly, when she was around sometimes. "Thataways, yes, so it seems," he agreed, amused, hands reaching for his girlfriend and his sister as they started in that direction.
