"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Ember asked. "If you want to know, ask her." She pointed to Adrienne.
"I don't know what this is!" Adrienne exclaimed, her voice high.
"Let's just call a meeting. We might as well tell everyone at the same time," Aiden said calmly.
Alex watched Aiden's face with suspicion. "You already know what it is." It wasn't a question.
Aiden nodded. "Don't worry about that for now. We'll call a meeting, and everybody can hear about it. I don't feel like letting Em repeat herself for those who aren't here."
Adrienne sat, staring at the screen. To everyone else, it looked as if she had zoned out. What she was actually doing was checking the different functions of the merit system. She also took a brief look at the inventory Ember had sent to her.
Seeing everything made her already comical expressions even more so.
