Discs in This Day and Age?!
“What the hell am I supposed to do with these?” Penny grumbled under her breath as she looked blankly at the two DVDs in her hand from yet another late scholarship application, even if this one was marked urgent and had another letter attached to the main orangeish colored big envelope with all of the papers required for the scholarship.
“Do with what?” Juliana’s head popped up over the edge of the fancy couch in the office they were in, casually dangling one arm over the side of the couch and Penny could feel her brown eyes on the back of her head. “Since when do you have issues with scholarship application scanning?”
“Since never,” Penny retorted back at the brunette and silently counted backward in her head to not just throw one of the DVDs at the annoying brunette who could use a lesson in humility and keeping her nose out of others’ business, but she couldn’t really do that with her job huh?
Out of everyone in the world to pick as Nemona’s aid, they just had to pick Juliana.
Nemona already lived with Penny and Ortega but of course Nemona wasn’t interested in either of them, which was fine with Penny since she also wasn’t interested in being attracted to her artificial twin and sibling. But juliana, really? The girl had the most annoying brother to walk the fucking earth, he harrassed everyone and had the biggest crush on Nemona who ignored him so he bullied people like a highschooler, and Juliana was extremely nosey.
Cute, well mannered thank god and took her job seriously, but nosey as fucking hell and had to know the position of everything in every room in a house. Not out of paranoia either, but because she knew Nemona had a habit of stealing random items like snowglobes, rings, game consoles, etc out of boredum and so Juliana returned them all at various points throughout the day.
“Most music candidates don’t sent in burned DVDs with their application music, at least not since I was five,” Penny deadpanned and ignored the idle short whistle from Nemona, who was likely very annoyed with Juliana at the given moment. “Digital is a thing, not to mention so are usb sticks and they’re an eighth of the size than each of these massive DVDs that could’ve been destroyed in transit…”
“I bet they’re from a rich family then, so it means it was put through first class shipping, or…” Juliana seemed legitimately curious now and Penny heard rustling before footsteps, “or they had it sent in by hand.”
“Since when do other pureblood families live anywhere near us?” Penny debunked her theory rapidly and nearly got smacked in the face by Juliana’s fluffy brunette colored hair, which was currently out of it's ponytail like expected.
“Just gimme the file without groaning,” Juliana groaned and held out a hand while picking up the smaller letter with her other hand, brown eyes narrowing as she looked at the seal on the envelope. “I’ve heard weirder things than some high class family sending in a scholarship application for an aid by hand.”
“Whatever, you belong in a library,” Penny stated flatly and gave her the large envelope before pushing herself to her feet with one of the DVDs.
“Well yeah, where do you think I came from?” Juliana snickered and Penny stifled the urge to roll her eyes as she passed by the couch and heard Nemona’s rasping breaths as her way of laughter since she couldn’t speak or make pitched sounds, just lower rumbling, grunts, snarls, or changes in her breathing. Purposefully rattling the thin sensory organ in the back of her nose that all alphas had that couldn’t be removed without killing her and thereby she still had it.
