Superpower summit




















After a prolonged scheduling battle between their respective staffs, Minea and Scarlett were finally able to arrange the inaugural Congress of the Cousins. The late-November meeting took place at an undisclosed location in Upstate New York. Talks started off shaky as Scarlett initially refused to acknowledge Minea's supremacy in arithmetic, drawing, and sitting upright. Things were on the verge of falling apart before the two reached breakthrough consensus on a few hot-button issues (thumb vs pacifier, Callas vs Tebaldi, and "yeah, my dad is weird too"). The Scarlett camp was disappointed when Minea's skills-transfer session on potty-training failed to materialize. All in all, the summit was a success and laid the groundwork for future meetings of these great minds.
