💭 Psychic Contact with Manny, CC: Emma

Goooood mooorning. Belladonna asked me to keep you away from her, so you need not bother with babysitting today.

💭 Open Psychic Channel, slightly later

My brother is trying to kill Remy, I fear. He got away from me for a minute last night. I do not have so much time to keep an eye on him right now, so someone else will need to occupy his attentions for awhile.

[...] Ah, but please do not kill him. I know it does not really matter, but I am sentimental. How are all the other murders going?

Mystique instructed me to stay close. But given that she'll be dead soon, that should not be an issue.

[...]

What did she say, exactly?

Good. But I could get rid of you even if you were determined.

"Keep him away from me."

[...] Succinct.

It seems that you do not want me near her either.

I do not care that much. But I am supposed to be her best friend. If she told the other me to keep you away from her, I would do it.

Then I will keep my distance. But it will not change anything.

No? Why not?

Why would it?

She still feels the way I made her feel and, even if she didn't, I can influence her from a distance if I need to.

I thought you did not like to leave lasting changes on people.

[...] I don't like it. But I have a role to play here too.

Well I will not tell her so, and then maybe she will feel better if she doesn't see you lurking around.

Did you do your secret meeting?

I was not lurking. I was invited.

Sí, after I left you. [...] Apparently, I was working with Mercy LeBeau. She owes me a favor, should we need to call it in.

I'll try to steer him away from Remy when I can.

I think the other murders are going swimmingly. How was the bachelorette?

It was fun. They do not party like you do, but we still spent a lot of money.

Spending money is very fun. I was less enamored with the bachelor party, but it was still enjoyable.

You know, if anyone wanted to get married, or married again, and they wanted a bachelorette party I would throw a very good one.

Edited (sorry @ rogue and remy) Date: 2025-10-03 10:47 pm (UTC)

Eugh. I hate weddings.

Just on principle? I can't imagine you've been to many.

A few, and even fewer for people I know well. They are not so bad if you do not know anyone there. But I always get up and leave during the speeches. You don't think I will have to give a speech, do you?

Interesting, that's not what I would have expected. But no, I can't imagine you'd be forced to make a speech, unless your brother was getting married.

He'd better not.

I don't think he's currently at any risk of that.

Probably not.

Unless he is quick to get attached. Very quick. But I don't think he's in that mindset currently. So I believe you're free of speech duties.

I suppose I do not know what he is like.

I don't believe he is. And yes, I do imagine talking about dating wasn't first on your list of things to catch up on.

No, it was not.

A fun conversation for another time.

What do you have besides the rehearsal dinner tonight, darling?

We are not used to being the same age. He still thinks of me as a child.

I have to get my nails done.

That must be very strange. I feel like even growing up normally together, it's hard to shake that feeling, though.

Oh, I'm jealous.

Perhaps. We were ten years apart.

We could go when we get home. It is kind of fun to have girl friends.

That's quite a shift. Christian is only five years older than me and we have a strange dynamic, but the moment I need his help I'm just his little sister again.

We should; I'm about due anyways. I'm happy to bring you on any of my 'girl' excursions. Kitty is uninterested most of the time.

You think he'd suspect if I yelled at him for failing and put him on a different job, once I get Mystique's body to do it in?

There is only one way to find out for certain.

Well all right then. I'll call him for a meeting later.
Assuming all goes well with one more murder, of course.

Let me know if you need help. I have not had to kill anyone yet.

Seems to be opportunity aplenty, round here. Might get your chance.

We will see. I am not eager for it or anything.

Can't rightly recommend it as an experience, if I'm honest. But this one'll help.

It is not like they are real people, anyway. They are just echoes of themselves.
