Redhawk Caldera time after time

Good intentions pave the road to hell... 1% of Dwin's being tried to see this explanation for Frolic's disappearance as something that would make everything right. The remaining 99% of her still wanted to wring Frolic's neck or at least give her a good shake and yelling. Because - of course - parents would go soft on her and she knew from her own experience of being a difficult child, that would not stop her younger sister from pulling this off again. It was not easy to keep these thoughts from surfacing and being spoken out loud. 

"Bronco does not have a sister called Meerkat," Dwin corrected the stranger and looked her all over very carefully. "There was Nelly, Quetzal and Alyx, but no Meerkat," she explained. She was not good at remembering facts correctly, nor did she possess the talent of being a good story-teller. But her memory in genealogy, when it concerned her immediate family members was quite good. "Were you adopted as a kid? Or are you a distant cousin?" because that could happen, even if it did not count.
