Keira noticed and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Jenkins jumped in before Erin could reply, “This last one here–her interests are surprisingly similar to Erin’s.”

Keira frowned. “Food?”

Jenkins nodded. “Exactly. That’s why we nicknamed her Pig.”

Keira blinked, stunned.

She twitched her lips in disbelief, but Erin cut in with immediate protest. “Hold on! What do you mean, my interests are the same as Pig’s? I’m a selective eater, okay? I have standards! I don’t just eat everything. She does! Anything remotely edible, she’s all in!”

Erin gave an exaggerated huff. “Back in preschool, she used to finish off all our leftovers. Seriously, we’d save them for her because she could eat everything! Her mom even showed up at school once to complain, saying the teachers were turning her kid into a pig. Said she was getting ‘too big and too chubby.’”
