Bellona, meanwhile, returns to El with their drinks.

"Those two wander off?"

Permalink

"Decided they wanted a turn," she says, nodding to the floor.

Permalink

She snuggles into her sister, turning to watch.

"...Huh."

(Did she and El look like that?)

"They're good dancers," she says, after a moment.

Permalink

"Better than us?"

Permalink

"Hm. More practiced, maybe, but we'll win in the end."

Permalink

"We always do."

Permalink

She laughs and leans her head back onto El's shoulder, sipping at her drink and watching their alts dance.

"...Watching them's kinda weird..." she says, as Ruby and Ellie draw particularly close together at one point.

Permalink

"It's like peeking into an alternate universe."

Permalink

"Somewhat literally."

Permalink

"Mm." She rests her head on Bellona's shoulder.

Permalink

Snug.

"It's reassuring, I think? That even if we weren't sisters, we would've found our way to each other no matter what..." She squeezes El's hand. "But being your sister's better than any alternative. I'm glad that's the universe I'm in."

"You're the best sister a girl could ask for."

Permalink

Her chest feels so warm and glowy, it's great.

"Love you."

Permalink

"Love you too."

Permalink

She sighs, happy, and sips at her drink a bit more. She's building up a pleasant buzz - this one's more alcoholic than the last, probably, and she's never actually really drunk more than a bit of celebratory wine before...

Permalink

 

Eventually, the other two return, arm in arm.

Permalink

Bellona hums, nuzzling El - her head's getting a bit fuzzy by now. Very pleasantly so, and her sister's so very warm and cozy...

"Hey," she says to her and her sister's alts, grinning.

Permalink

Ruby eyes her. "...Okay, you need to stop drinking stuff that isn't water," she says, sounding highly entertained as she sits with Ellie. 

Permalink

"That's a good idea," El says, pulling Bellona's drink over in front of her. She concentrates for a moment before clapping her hands. A small puff of fire burns off the top of the cup.

Permalink

"I'm not drunk," Bellona whines.

Permalink

"Lion, you're drunk," El says, passing her glass of fruity water back to her.

Permalink

She harrumphs, but takes the fruity water and drinks some obediently enough. "You're being a meanie head."

Permalink

"There, there dear." Pat pat.

Permalink

Nuzzle. "But I love you even when you're a meanie head. Bestest El."

Permalink

"Yep, that's me."
