Not much of a heartfelt reunion if Odetta stays put with her goofy blank expression. You can’t blame her for not knowing what to do, but you can blame her for not doing anything after what everyone went through! She has to make something out of this! This is why you gently push her forward to give her a clue. If you’re willing to hug your dumb little sister after everything you went through, why can’t she?
Odetta’s eyes dart back at you, annoyed. You can’t help but chuckle, and hint at her to keep going. In the moment, you do a quick switchover, and now have Scarlet in your arms to check on her. Jaylene is half resting on the Buffalo’s fur, near you all.
“Where am I…?” Jaylene is waking up for real. Good news, her brain wasn’t fried in the process!
“Moo!” Agent Beef welcomes her back to the world of the living!
“Oh, I’m dreaming again.” Jaylene sensibly chuckles. “I have something stuck on my back…” She pulls a white canvas from her back. “<span class="mu-i">Huh?</span>” The Buffalo grabs it with its mouth and puts it away, that thing isn’t important now.
“Hey.” Odetta doesn’t get too close despite you pushing her.
“Hi, Odetta! This must be a good dream if you’re not immediately yelling at me.” Jaylene smiles. Does that mean Odetta yells at her regardless of the type of dream...?
“It’s not a dream, you blockhead.” Odetta frowns, her voice not carrying the same annoyance as when she’s actually mad. “Welcome back to reality.”
“Odetta… You brought me back?” Jaylene is realizing what is really going on as she looks at her hands. “Y-You went through all the trouble to bring *me* back?!”
“What can I say? I was in the neighborhood, and I can get cute like that.” Odetta keeps on joking with a grin on her face.
“But I thought you hated me…” Jaylene is in shock.
“Wish I could.” Odetta has no chill.
“<span class="mu-i">Sis…</span>” Jaylene’s eyes are getting watery.
“You can’t call me family without a hug and a kiss.” Odetta smiles. “Work for it, come over.” She opens her arms.
Instead of watching Jaylene struggle, you push Odetta towards her cousin again. Well, you weren’t the only one doing the funny tap… You’re not calling any names, but quite a few people wanted Spooky to stop being such a menace and be honest! They hug! You repeat: They hug!
“I’m sorry… for all the trouble…” Jaylene says as the teardrops don’t stop.
“Don’t fucking do this to me ever again… You know I’m not used to anything good happening...” Odetta grips her sister tightly.
“I won’t. I swear I won’t…!” Jaylene won’t let her sister go.
“You better… Now those two can finally catch a break...” Odetta lets all her frustrations out as she remembers the people who left her...
