JUNIPER
you think i'm happy because i'm smiling,
but it's the easiest thing to do
Juniper couldn't help laughing a little at Gideon's guess, a bright sound despite its hints of irony. "No. Wessex flatly rejected the concept, but ... she did agree to schedule a meeting to discuss it further. I'll admit I don't have great hopes for that meeting" -- though she didn't intend to admit just how nervous she was about it -- "but at least she's willing to talk. And the other leaders are more or less onboard, fortunately. That'll make it harder for her to ignore us."but it's the easiest thing to do
Sunjata was the "more" onboard, Juniper figured, and Morgan "less." The Warden had expressed deep skepticism about the idea -- skepticism that despite her best efforts Juniper could admit was deserved -- but at least she was open to it. The Governor, meanwhile, had committed a bit more enthusiastically.
if you looked a little closer,
you'd find my eyes aren't smiling too.
