[She glares because she doesn't trust him, even if she trusts Simon and Karina. Gabriel is a threat, new and dangerous. She has to be tough for Lily, has to protect her because even with everyone else here? She's all Lily has. They're all they have anymore really. The glare is there again as she looks over at Gabriel's words.]
... whatever.
[Arms crossed again, looking away from him back to her sister. Before either of them can say anything else, if they even planned to, Simon busts back into the room, a little out of breath, rubber band held up triumphantly with a smile.]
Found one!
[The older sister shoots him a look with a brow raised, a wordless "this is why you made me babysit this old man?" look on her face. Lily twists her body to look at Simon, smiling big and claps her hands.]
Yay! You did it, Simon!
[She's not sure what he did, but clearly it's a good thing! Her sister pushes up to her feet and tells her to pick up.]
But Casey, I wanna show Simon my drawing-
[Lily whines a little, even as she's collecting up her crayons back into her backpack. Simon comes over and peers down at her drawing book before Lily can stuff it away.]
Woooow, that's a really pretty ladybug, Lils.
[She giggles, zips up her backpack and pulls it on, standing up. Looking at Simon she'll reach for Casey's hand as she comes over to gently brush the hair from her face.]
It's not a ladybug, silly! It's a sun bug! Didn't you see it was yellow?
[Holding his hands up Simon can't help but smile a little.]
A sun bug, of course, that is really silly of me not to know.
[Casey pulls Lily against her side turning towards the door. Lily will give a little wave towards Gabriel, then at Simon with a cheerful "bye bye!". Her sister just gives Simon a look, one that definitely means they're talking later. He manages a wave to Lily and a "thanks" to Casey before they're gone. With a sigh he turns to Gabriel now, hands on his hips.]
Okay so, I lied. I didn't find it, Karina did, but details.
