It was still quite early when Daria arrived at the Historia. It was early enough that Angie was still setting up the café when she arrived.
“You haven’t been this early before,” Angie said.
“I wanted to get here with plenty of time to spare before school.”
“It has been one of those weeks, hasn’t it?”
“Yes. But every week is different. This time last week, the robodactyl had just appeared and the fake interview was about to happen that night.” Daria answered.
“Don’t remind me,” Angie said, as she checked the coffee machine. “Over a month since Groundhog Day.”
“I’m looking into something a lot less troublesome, although it’s still troublesome in a different way.”
“You mean the knock offs? Mom told me there aren’t that many coming into her store asking about them.”
“There aren’t?” Daria asked.
“There haven’t been. But maybe most would know that the boutique wouldn’t have them.”
“That could be it.”
Peterson arrived at the Historia shortly after seven. She saw that Daria was already there, waiting for her breakfast. She went to order a coffee first.
“Morning,” Daria said when Peterson had sat across from her.
“You’re here early.”
“I wanted to be sure that I met you this morning, as I’ll be busy with the play this evening.”
“You mean the new rooftop activity?” Peterson asked.
“Yes. I encountered one yesterday evening.”
“And the Enigma?”
“She did too,” Daria answered. She didn’t mention the fact that the Enigma had damaged a house in dealing with him. ‘She would think she’s more of an antihero than she already is.’
“And you have suspicions.”
“Oscorp, but there’s still no proof.”
“And actual proof might be difficult to obtain,” Peterson mused.
“Even if the other heroes may have had their own encounters.”
“Yes.”
“And then there was Tania last night,” Daria added.
“Tania Ashworth? What happened?”
Daria explained what had happened.
