Can't let her parents know about her secret double life of espionage :O

Your parents are still alive?! Uhm, In that case I'd say your secret lab with your studies and collection of stuff that would make regular humanbeing very nauseous.

The last time moulted she had two legs and hair instead of scales. Right now she's borrowing the shed skin of a larger friend who turns out to have farted a lot when they last shed. So verrrry embarrassing.

In order to save your own skin (literally) you hide the price of opal from your parents. Pretty stones fetch a pretty penny but you're not too keen on being harvested.

Nothing, but your parents are hiding you from the rest of the world :(
