[Meg just stands there like carrying the pampered brat is nothing, because really, it's not much and she'll be fine until she has to drop her. She smirks at Ella as she begins to head in the general direction, because being underestimated should here forever read "her favorite thing" and she likes the look of surprise. Always nice. She lugs Hattie with all the dignity of a sack of potatoes, and calls back over her shoulder.]

If you get the door, I'll be just fine.

So, you don't mind my asking, did she come branded this crazy, or did something special happen to rattle reality loose?
