[ she'll sniff, but smileβwell, really, she's grinning brightly even through her tears. and she'll drape herself across their tether in return, with a feeling of linking arms, pure affection. ]
I would love that. We could watch bad movies and paint... [ she lights up just thinking about it. ] Why don't you both come to the Blue Note? I'm not sure Jinx has ever been. I'd love to show her around. And... well, we ought to get Ivan's bugs used to her...
[ in case she decides to just show up one day. their Insect Alarm System is not terribly permitting of strangers that aren't deliberately introduced or let in by Ivan himself. ]
Haha! I'm sure she would. She and Ivan know each other, actually, come to think of it... though I don't know how well. I ought to ask him. She might already be a, well, "designated guest," so to speak.
[ a beat, because this makes her think of something. ]
... she doesn't actually boobytrap the hallway outside her room in the Devil's Nest, does she?
[ it is a completely genuine question, though asked with a mix of incredulity and amusement. ]
I'm positive they know each other. Ivan and I spoke about her in the last dream. He'd picked up on our... relationship. [ Not that they were dating, but that they were close.
Lortel's question earns a bright laugh. ] I think she does. As far as I know, it's nothing deadly, though. Some of her traps are more like pranks. Others are definitely of the dangerous variety, though.
Really? [ that makes her laugh. ] How sweet... they don't always pick up on things like that, understandably. [ given the way they grew up... ] Till didn't realize Megumi and I were dating until I told him, either. He'd only guessed we were close. Somehow, I can see the two of them being friends... Ivan and Jinx, I mean. [ they have a similar sort of impish chaos to them, at times.
the confirmation gets a genuinely surprised reaction. ] She was serious?!
[ ...
in the end, she laughs, too, bright peals of it. ]
I didn't run into a thing. She really did clear the hallway for me. She said she would. I really couldn't tell if she was just messing with me or not...
I told him I thought his Offering form was beautiful—he asked if Jinx was rubbing off on me. [ To her, that implies they've bonded over his bug-ishness. Sharon doesn't doubt that Jinx thinks he's cool. Jinx makes friends in the strangest ways. ]
The last place she lived was so trapped that when I visited, she had to escort me to the backroom because if I stepped wrong, I'd lose a limb or something. When she says she's got something trapped, believe her and never risk it. [ She's beaming, though. She likes that about Jinx. ]

Sounds like a plan to me. I bet Jinx'll get a kick out of the bug alarm system.
