Maggie laughs. "That part's my bread and butter. I run the fiction
department of a global news site back home. I've got twenty writers
working directly under me. And I work closely with the heads of our
factual and action news departments, so I adopt their employees too. I'm
pretty sure some of them have jokingly started calling me and Mahir "Mom
and Dad" behind our backs. There's a reason Iris looked at me and went
'yeah, you're a pack matriarch waiting to happen.'"
Thoughtfully, she adds, "Actually, I miss it. Having a whole bunch of
people it was literally my job to look out for. Things here are more...
fractured and complicated."
