Hello crystals. I have question.

( There is a long pause before Helena continues. Long enough that it could seem plausible that the question is never coming. And then, with a rush, )

How do you be good twin?

I'm— not sure how to be good sister. We were being apart long time. I thought maybe peanut butters would be good present, but I think it made Sarah unhappy.

( Stiltedly, ) I stole her crystal, do not play this for her. Thank you.

I do not try too hard. ( Said with UTMOST confidence. ) We are meant to be together.

( And she makes a sound, sort of a grunt, at the second part. She's not sure what to make of all this.

[motherfucking_ghost]

But does she feel that way? Just, I mean, obviously you think so and normally twins seem to be like that, but is it possible she doesn't think that way?

[strangel]

No.

( fucking yes but unfortunately Church is speaking to Helena, and not Sarah. )

She knows we are miracle.

[she definitely gives off Unreliable Narrator vibes]

Then it sounds like a sit-down and deep sisterly talk is needed. Just to sort things out. Specifically.

[strangel]

Do you have sister?

[motherfucking_ghost]

...Uh, I kind of have--I sort of have like a lot of--sort of people who in simplest terms are siblings, aaaand it's a long and complicated story.

Let's just say yes, but estranged.

[strangel]

( well that sort of sounds.

familiar. she squints a bit. )

Do you know a Mark?

[motherfucking_ghost]

[ain't it just eerie!]

Nnnnot off hand, no. Not here and not back home. ...That I recall.

[strangel]

He is very ugly.
