Emmie turned to him with a glint in her eye. “Hey, what’s that supposed to mean?” “Well, you’re not a library kind of girl are you, Tarz?” grinned Kaal. “And when was the last time you were up here, Mister Brainbox?” Emmie shot back. “Hi,” interrupted John, looking from the big Derrilian to Emmie. “Did you want something or did you just come up here to argue?” “We wanted something,” answered Kaal. “You tell him, Emmie.”
