Annie thought about it for a moment, then shrugged her little shoulders indifferently. Spreading her hands, she gave an answer that was quintessentially her:
"Guess we'll just have to make do!"

"What else can we do?"
(ˉ▽ ̄~) Tsk~~
She sounded so relaxed, as if they were discussing what to have for breakfast tomorrow.
