Eighth-Grade Superzero (2010)
“The stench almost takes me out as soon as I walk into the room. I thought bleach and hot dogs were a bad combination; bleach and homeless people take funk to a whole new level. I have to work hard to keep my face fixed. Jeff is wrinkling his nose and covering his mouth just in case we don’t get that it smells. The place looks old and gray, and the people do too, even the kids. I look around, then I look down fast; I’m embarrassed and I don’t know why.
“This way, guys. There’s Wilma,” says Dave,... sounding all cheery like we just walked into Disney World. There’s a very tall woman waving us over to a long table. She looks like Valkyryna, Night Man’s occasional partner in crime-fighting (and, as Joe C. now calls her, “his lady friend”), but when we get closer I revise that to Valkyryna’s mom, or grandmother. She’s pretty old, but she’s big, and even her hair looks like it could beat me down. We all shuffle over to the table and sit down at the bench.
