"Kyle, set those boxes in the kitchen."

"Can't we just use the Rings and get this move over with quickly?"

"Zaria, you know it doesn't work like that here," Carol scolded and I groaned, setting down some boxes in the living room. "It's the same reasons why you wear the glasses. It's so-"

"They can't see I'm an alien and Area 51 won't invade my bedroom at three in the morning and kidnap me while you're all asleep," I recited. "Dad recited the same thing since I came here."

"And yet you still try to float the couch every time we move. The girl who has borderline superhuman strength refuses to lift a couch."

"Because carrying it is barbaric," I huffed, brushing dust off my shorts. "You try hauling around a fifty-pound coffee table when you've got a gravity ring in your pocket."

"Zaria," she warned.

"Fine, fine," I muttered, waving a hand. "Manual labor it is. Let it be known that the mighty Lantern of Sector 2814 was humbled by a two-bedroom apartment and her own stubborn mother."

"You two were the ones who were talking about apartments since now you think you're big shot college students."

"I do online and Kyle was the one who insisted. I'm perfectly okay with living with my parents until I die." I defended, flicking Kyle in the ear.

"Ow," Kyle muttered, swatting my hand. "Enough with the violence!"

"Violence builds character," I said sweetly.

"Pretty sure that's not what the Guardians meant when they said 'forge strength through adversity,'" Kyle muttered, rubbing his ear.

"Are you saying I'm the adversity?"

"I'm saying if the couch had a power ring, it'd be more cooperative than you."

"You two are gonna set fire to this apartment in a week," Carol grumbled and tossed a bag at me. "Hal left something for you."
