    Abby must have been the one who found the safe house, because Townsend didn't like it.

    Excellent. Townsend dropped his bag. Now the circle can see us from every angle.

    Don't mind Agent Townsend, girls, Abby told us. He's a glass-half-empty kind of spy.

    Also known as the good kind, he countered.

    Abby huffed.

    And the boys were all clean, their faces freshly and brutally shaved, their hair painstakingly gelled into exquisite apparent carelessness, with this electric feeling inside of them, which matched the feelings in the girls, that they were all ascending, moving into a future that could only improve them, and I wondered what it was like - the miracle, the stupidity of feeling that.
