I have to give Lyra the first chapter and I've forgotten what the stars are for!
Lasa definitely didn't want to see her mother this morning, not on Separation Day. Arietta Taylor had raised her three children by herself, and in the only way she knew how: illegally. Lasa, like her brothers, knew how Separation worked, though as a civilian she really shouldn't. She didn't want to be reminded of that. She wanted to pretend - just for a little while - that she was normal.*
What's wrong - oh, I see, the "illegally." Right. Right? Then why isn't the star back there? I HATE THIS ARGH *hyperventilates*
