She doesn’t even give them time to respond, already continuing to argue her point. “I swear I’m not a thief or anything because that would be rude,” Didi’s actually expecting them to take the bait just because she flashes a pretty smile. “I am just trying to, um, get out of town really, really quickly and I swear...on my father’s grave.” Her father’s not dead; call it wishful thinking. “That I will pay you back-- you’ll be doing a very important service to a very pretty girl in a very bad situation....please?”

 Detroit’s response was all too wonderful to hear. It was always comforting to e be around those not interested in the normal expectations of life. “I totally get you. I had tried to be normal once -and all that got me was depression and misery. So I’m over that bullshit entirely.“

- They have inadvertently found that while paying attention to what others are saying, they really can zone the hell out and have their visions in a whole another realm while having an awareness of their current engagement. Having that kind of multiple consciousness thing going - is common for them and they don’t really know how to explain it to others. So they try to focus on maintaining enough presence here so that they don’t come across as ignoring people.

Nicky leans over the stove, eyeing curiously at the cooking pot in front of her. Taking the spoon from Daphne, she takes a mouthful of the food, her eyebrows raising immediately in response. “Oh my god,” she says, her voice muffled from a full mouth. “That’s actually really good! What is it?”

‘ don’t touch it. ’  she comes from nowhere, peeking over theo’s shoulder, too close to her ear. situation reversed, evie would jump out of her skin. she welcomes the hard, uncomfortable thrumming that follows in one’s chest, like your heart’s trying to escape, skipping beats while you try to get your breath back. maybe that’s why she does it. give and take. ‘ it’s cursed. you’ll be cursed forever. ’
