It's his next words that have her eyes widening a fraction. She shakes her head quickly, nearly dropping the papers from her lap in her protest. ] What-- no, Polly! You're everything I could ever want in a big brother! You're super smart, and nice, and you always think things through! We might be really different, yeah, but that doesn't matter at all. You're definitely perfect big brother material!

[ Her nerves are calming somewhat now that the initial shock has worn off, and Trucy offers him a bright, genuine smile in return. ] We make an awesome team! You're absolutely right, we'll make this work and it's going to be great!

[ Her smile turns mischievous suddenly, and she leans on playfully. ] Besides, this would give you a reason to be my assistant in some of my shows!
