"What the hell? Is someone skinning a cat?" Faith looked out into the hall, not seeing any cause of the noise.

Andrew had gotten used to the racket over the past weeks. Well, perhaps not used to it, but at least he was past the scraping himself off the ceiling phase. "That would be Francine voicing her displeasure at Dolores clipping her over the ear."

"I don't know how Dolores does it, and I don't just mean putting up with the screeching. I would have killed her before now."

"She raised four kids single-handedly, what's one obnoxious junior Slayer?"

Francine's mother would be useless, she's partly responsible for raising a brat. Dolores, on the other hand, keeps a pretty firm hand on the Watchers, so a pampered princess should be no great battle for her.

When you find a brat, you usually -- not always, but usually -- find at least one irresponsible parent.

Maybe I should send you a small crowbar of your very own.

risks repeating myself

The (small) crowbar will just make a hollow crunching noise as my skull collapses, followed by a pathetic squelch
