Quoted By:
Emma was sobbing so badly that they at least let her share a dungeon with Angel, but she was done by the time they locked the cell. The evil twin had also requested for cards to be sent, but all she got was a bald Barbie toy she was holding meekly. Silently, Emma sits next to her, and although they look identical you'd have a harder time telling a capybara apart from a rocket launcher. They just sit in silence, for a while, and Angel, unable to endure the silence, bites her finger just to feel something.
And then Emma giggles.
Angel: Whus shu fhunny?
From her hair, Emma takes out not one but two chocolate popsicles and is smiling at Angel. Who just stares.
Angel: You look beautiful.
Still smiling, Emma looks away as her cheeks burn, but then giggles again.
▲ Emma: You look beautiful too!
Angel: Did you get the joke?
▲ Emma: Yeah, we look the same.
Angel: Sorry. Didn't think it was going to be this bad.
▲ Emma: I... kinda saw it coming, to be honest. But I guess I was having too much fun.
Angel: Was watching Camila getting handcuffed fun too?
▲ Camila: (muffled) I can hear you, whore.
Emma laughs, and Angel decides to laugh with her. It fades after a while, yet neither feel compelled to fill the silence.
Angel: You were talking about immortality, right? Just earlier.
▲ Emma: Oh, do you find that interesting?
Angel: Yeah. Sometimes I think the craziest shit too, you know? Like how would it be to be a god. You would do whatever you want and nobody would give you shit, because you are a god you know? You are omnipotent and stuff.
▲ Emma: Yeah, I know.
Angel: But then I wonder...
Angel takes a single cigarette from her her hair, almost exactly like Emma did just earlier.
Angel: I wonder if I'd be any less of a hazard to everyone else if I was a god.
Finding her pockets empty, she simply munches on the butt of the nicotine stick. Slowly.
▲ Emma: No.
Angel: No?
Serious, Emma shakes her head.
▲ Emma: Don't you dare change, Angel Imeredala.
And she said so in a scolding voice, with a furrowed brow, looking straight at her twin's eyes. And when Angel addressed her with the slightest smile, Emma gave back all of her own.
Angel: Ok.
