Gold's driver was busy. Silver was driving Electrum to school herself. "Thank you again," Electrum said politely.

"I didn't want you walking ten miles in the snow, uphill both ways, like when I was your age," Silver joked awkwardly.

"I'm just grateful that I don't have to ride the school bus with the other students," Electrum said.

Silver frowned. I don't like the sound of that, she thought.

"Packed in a crowded bus, BREATHING on each other, and catching HORRIBLE DISEASES from each other? EEUGH!!"

That isn't exactly snobbish, a even more worried Silver thought, but it's also profoundly mysophobic.
