Welcome to the Blood Ballet

More than once, I’ve wanted to get a picture of their faces. I’ll get you some shirts that are meant to stay blood free, and they will. I’ll make sure of it.

You should. We can frame it. Thank you. I'll appreciate it. Apparently blood stained shirts aren't appropriate day wear.

I get a kick out of it, too. The humble Maria loves you too, blood stained shirts and all. 

The facial expressions are always priceless. I appreciate it but maybe you can find me some shirts that can't be blood stained. I need some shirts that stay clean I guess.

That’s a bonus, thank goodness for your crude nature. You better like it because the humble me is the one you’re dating. 

You're very welcome. It's always a pleasure to make jokes at my family's expense. The humble Maria is the one I fell in love with so of course I do.

Dinners I can handle. They aren’t that long and I don’t ave to talk to him directly. Everybody needs to get out of the spotlight sometimes, and I had my time. Now I’m just a humble woman living her life. 

And I'm almost guaranteed to say something inappropriate enough for us to leave early. I'm glad that you've had your moment because I like this humble version of you.

Lucky me. Unfortunate for you, isn’t it? At least I like my sibling, most of the time. It’s because I go by the name Maria now, it makes it easier for everyone to not notice. 

It is very unfortunate... well until my parents insist I bring you to dinners. Then you'll be stuck with him too. Right, of course. A change of name and everyone forgets that you're the most beautiful woman in the world.

That I would enjoy. It’s why I purposely avoid seeing him ever. So far, it’s working out for me. Well, sounds like I’m pretty amazing. Lucky for you, this dream girl is all yours. 

Then that's what I'll do. I don't like the shirt anyway. You're lucky. He's still my brother, I have to see him no matter how much I hate him. You are pretty amazing. I know, I'm incredibly lucky. I feel like I've stolen away Helen of Troy and no one has noticed yet.

True. I guess you can’t go around naked, what a shame. Hasn’t he always been? I’m not surprised that it bleeds over into every other aspect of his life, too. Oh yeah? What am I best at, then?

I can walk around naked for you, it'll be a free show. Pretty much. Neither am I, to be honest. You're great at many things. You're super smart and probably the funniest girl I know. You're the best at being gorgeous and kissing and fucking. Basically, you're a dream girl.

Not like you care much for that. No wonder, he has terrible fashion sense oh his own. I won’t let you down, promise. Shopping is what i do best.

Yeah but I'm not a fan of being arrested for the small things. That's because Willas is a terrible person. I know you won't. I don't think that's what you do best though, I have special insight on you.

What do they know? I was being honest. Just not that shade of green. I would happily buy you some new clothes, you wouldn’t even need to ask twice.

Apparently they know the law. Green's not really my thing anyway, I think Willas bought this for me. Then I will give you some cash and you can go shopping. Buy whatever you want, I trust you.

Nobody ever said that would be a bad thing. It makes your face look really red.

Peacekeepers might think a little differently. Apparently nudity is indecent. Gee, thanks. Alright, no more green ever. Maybe I should just give you some cash and you can get me some new stuff?

You know you have some extra clothes in my closet, right? They’re even clean.

I did know that but I would have also had to come to yours naked just to get a shirt. Is the green really that bad? 

I’m not going to take over your life, don’t worry. I was just giving you clothing advice. 

Don't worry, I don't wear green often. Most of my shirts are at the dry cleaners. I got blood on everything else. 

That would require us living together so I could prevent you from making bad clothing choices. I couldn’t do that, you’d stop liking me if I did.

We practically live together so I don't know what the difference would be. I think we're past that Little Levine. If you don't want to change my job or my eating habits, your safe.

That would be best. I can’t be seen with you if you wear it.

Should I just start letting you dress me now? Any other parts of my life you'd like to take over?

That is definitely not your colour. 

Duly noted. No more green.

"It’s because he’s destined to be a killer. Isn’t that right, honey? I’m gonna’ teach you to slit throats and break ribs and look absolutely adorable while doing it." 

Did you hear that little guy? Momma's got your whole life planned out for you. You won't even have to make a decision. Although Erika, you might want to wait until he starts talking before you train him to kill. 

For some reason, he really does like you.
