"You tend to make a particular face," he says. "And then she tells you to shut up, which is also a clue."

"I'll tell her that - wait, maybe it will be awkward if I tell her that you noticed this, considering."

Permalink

"Quite likely."

Permalink

"You don't like her, do you, you probably would've said by now if you did because that would be way less awkward."

Permalink

"I hardly know her."

Permalink

"Are you one of those people who has to know a whole lot about somebody before you can like them? I have killed entire afternoons thinking about random girls I encounter who seem like they might be nice and have the correct number of all their facial features."

Permalink

"I... don't have many previous examples to draw on."

Permalink

"Huh. Anyway, like I said, I'm not sure if I'm right because she says it's none of my business and she has a legit history of saying this when it turned out she actually didn't have a crush on whoever I was teasing her about, and also Kiri is my sister and I have special teasing-her-about-things-privileges so - continue not being a jerk to her about it."

Permalink

"Happily."

Permalink

"Good. I hate it when people are jerks to her about things."

Permalink

"Reasonable."

Permalink

"That's me, reasonable and also interested in not having Kiri in a bad mood since I am around her pretty much all of the time."

Permalink

"Which," he says, "is also reasonable."

Permalink

"If you do decide you like her I can pass messages, I am under the impression that some people find that kind of thing useful for... some reason."

Permalink

"I don't expect to need any such thing," he says, "but thank you anyway."

Permalink
"You're welcome."

Pause.

"She reads my mind like all the time, and it is not huge mental discipline meaning I think only of the things I want to think that lets me put up with it, she's gonna know about this conversation."
Permalink

"I expected as much."

Permalink

"Mini Pocket Kiri s- have you had Miniature Pocket Kiri explained to you, I can't remember, I know we explained it to Sarelle."

Permalink

"Do tell."

Permalink

"Some people have consciences and where those usually go I have a Miniature Pocket Kiri, who is imaginary and is basically my-ability-to-predict-what-Kiri-would-say, so I can consult her on things besides conscience things."

Permalink

"And she has some comment on this situation?"

Permalink

"Yeah, she says you might as well specify now if you want Kiri to apologize to you for - something; I know Kiri would be inclined to apologize for something but don't really know what. Disadvantage of the minature pocket version. Possibly she'd apologize for my behavior or for any possibility of the whole thing having made you uncomfortable or something?"

Permalink

"I see no reason to seek an apology from anyone."
