oh, great. she’s somehow awakened the kraken. yes, of course she thinks she’s talking to harlow. it’s not like her mind is going to immediately leap to twins ( despite being one herself ) or doppelgangers ( despite being surrounded by them ). she lets out a sturdy exhale as she listens to the other ramble on about something that mostly falls on deaf ears, since she’s dissociating hardcore. there’s no conclusion at the end —– and she truly believes it to not be her own fault. “ what the hell are you even on about? you sound like every matthew mccounaghey movie that has a cornfield chase scene in it. ” god, fuck people and their fake philosophy phds or whatever. she just wants to get some soda. “ why don’t you bug off to steal babies or fight the powerpuff girls? ”
huh. the irritation in her tone combined with the bizarre hobbies she lists cue her into a few simple facts. one, this girl knows harlow. two, not only does she know harlow, but she seems to have somewhat a distaste for her. and finally, three, that distaste is likely met with equal distaste and perhaps even antagonism. which perhaps accounts for the REASON the other girl is looking at as though she should take a long walk off a short pier. her lips twitch, a small hint of a smile at figuring the whole thing out with the information on hand, before she decides to make her discoveries known. ( she’s not a narcissist ; she just LOVES to know that all the work she’s doing is WORKING. ) “ sorry. ” she’s not, but she understands it’s a necessary pleasantry in body swap mishaps. “ you’ve got the wrong girl. ” she assumes that’ll be a relief and then an equal concern. ( a part of her almost wants to keep the whole charade going, as she often does with people who mistake her for harlow for a few moments, but she doesn’t see anything she could gain from this interaction that she doesn’t already have. so, naturally, she casts it aside. ) “ aidy. ” another pleasantry, but there’s no olive branch. no hand extended, for now. until she can tell that this girl is worth the energy.
