As we drive to meet Tessa, I ask Skye how she's doing.
Nervous-sided is a portmanteau word, like the way, say, romance, a word denoting an incestuous relationship between brothers is, or chillax, the act of chilling out with a bar of family-sized ex-lax.
In the comic books he reads, that's how problems are solved, with punches, kung fu chops.
Writing the scales is a simpler business.
It's one thing to hear stories about his mom being stepped on.

I wanted a quiet place for Skye and Tessa to talk, and it turned out that on the weekends, the local university had an unoccupied studio.
We pull into the empty campus parking lot.
The studio's only big enough for Skye and Tessa, so Clark and I sit in the control booth, where we'll be able to eavesdrop on the conversation.
There's a mic, so should the need arise, Clark can offer guidance that only Skye can hear through her headphones.
Sandy, the studio technician, helps us get set up and takes a level on Skye's voice by asking her an easy, neutral question.
Laugh it up, Sandy, the studio technician.
