[There are so many ways Prue wants to snap back at that, but all she can do is glare for a minute before wilting slightly.]
It's nothing. Can't I come home early without getting the third degree?
[If Prue was in a better frame of mind she'd realize as she says it that that line is itself a giveaway- coming home early. Prue never comes home early. Not from the museum, not from Buckland's and especially not now. As she explained to Phoebe when she first got here- she has her dream job now, the one she's been dreaming of since she was in high school. She's finally a photographer. As if she'd ever jeopardize that job by something as irresponsible as coming home early. Not with how she's been since Phoebe got here, working long hours and working too hard, often working after sirens and having to call Chris to orb her home. Phoebe has seen it- so this? This is unusual. Prue doesn't come home early.]
