Ah, zards. Amaya should have expected a comment like that; she was definitely blaming the false sense of security granted by these meaty offerings, and she should probably also introduce Irene to the graveyard of broken hairbrushes that would certainly prove that point very wrong.

It was just...so much hair.

"It's...not, actually," she said, sounding equal parts a little surprised by that herself and a little triumphant over Irene having guessed it wrong (little victories, and all that). "I rather like the routine of making it the morning; good way to get a focus on the day, really."
