"Lavinia Asimov!" Reyna called from the rostrum. "Did you have something to say?"

All eyes turned towards us. A few legionnaires smirked, as if this were not the first time Lavinia had been called out during a senate meeting.

Lavinia glanced from side-to-side, then pointed to herself as if she were unsure which of the many Lavinia Asimov's Reyna might have been addressing. "No, ma'am. I'm good."

Reyna did not look amused at being called ma'am. "I notice you're chewing gum as well. Did you bring enough for the whole senate?"

"Er, I mean . . ." Lavinia pulled multiple packs of gum from her pockets. She scanned the crowd, making a quick guesstimate. "Maybe?"

Reyna glanced heavenward, as if asking the gods, Why do I have to be the only adult in the room?
