"You know," Bright Eyes said, "when I said 'you should invest some time in finding out what being a mayor means', this isn't what I meant."

Bright Eyes let out a sigh and wandered around the desk, putting down her paperwork. "You could visit local businesses," she said, "get to know your people... I mean, Mayor Swanson wasn't big on that, but Mayor Summers always said it was important--"

Bright Eyes paused. Then stared. Then-- "Is that Sim City 2000?!"

"Yep," Tamsin said, making sure to let that one pop. "Nothing like the classics. Say, how many water pumps have we got around here anyway?"
