[Just ignoring that first bit,]

[Julia's eyes flick to her father, before closing, sweetly. "I'm afraid I mistook you for someone else. It's just been so long since we've had a worthwhile visitor! You can forgive me, can't you?"]

["It's been just us for a while. But like I said, we stick together, ah?" Rafe places a hand on Julia's head, though she quickly shakes it off.]

[stakesthesame]

I'm pretty unmistakable! But do tell me about this someone else, why don't you?

[ to rafe, as she comes to the seat next to julia, ]

You don't mind if I join you, do you? Thanks!

[idolpro]

[What are you even doing

how are you doing this]

[--Anyway, Julia's expression goes a little pinched. "Of course, the more the merrier!" her father says, cheerful. "You wanna drink, or food... You said you're no gluten?"]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

Oh, totally worse. Only reds!

[ leans on the table, closer to julia. ]

So, you were saying?

["Should of have tomatoes, I knew it..." He putters off into the cabinets, looking for...something?]

[Julia looks back evenly. "Oh, was I saying something? I didn't mean to interrupt, do go ahead. Why are you here again?"]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

Thanks, dad!

--You were just about to tell me about this friend you mistook me for.

[She sighs, quick and irritated. "...Do you know where we are? Do you know who I am?"]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

Nem's heart, yeah?

I don't actually know you specifically, though.

["I did just introduce myself. But it does make sense she'd get together with someone she could keep up with, as it were.

Think of it this way. I'm her logic, better judgement, sense of reality, intelligence, when she bothers to use it, so basically never..." She sighs, ending the digression. "Unfortunately, there's more to her than just me. Getting clearer now?"]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

Wow! It's almost like knowing your name doesn't actually mean I KNOW you!

You're SOOOO smart, Julia! Golly! I wish MY logic had a stick up its butt like yours did!

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[idolpro]

[For an instant, a withering look, before her expression smooths once again. "Well. If you really do want to get to know me, I'm sure we can work something out! It's any sister's duty to keep tabs on her friends, isn't it? After all, who knows how she could get hurt without someone to protect her?"]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

[ hums, setting her chin in her hand ]

She doesn't NEED me to protect her. I do it cuz I love her.

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[idolpro]

[She clasps her hands, as if impressed. "That's so noble! You must be so proud of yourself for such...selfless accomplishments."]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

Not really. I junked up lots of times before we got here.

But I do stuff cuz I wanna, cuz I like her, and not cuz she needs it or nothin'.

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[idolpro]

[That hand goes over her heart as her lashes go low. "I'm certain she appreciates your sacrifice. Why are you in my house?"]

Re: INSIDE this house is instanced

[stakesthesame]

[ WOOF SORRY I THOUGHT I GOT THIS BACK ]

Obviously I'm lookin' for Nem.
