( she isn't sure what to really text next. vi wanted her to think of their real parents and it appears she got her wish. )
she was pretty. i wish i remember how her meals tasted like or i was old enough to know how to cook. im trying to learn how. i know how to make one dish without burning myself or something.
( which is a big improvement seeing she wasn't allow to in their younger years. but at least it was a little refreshing back then to know mylo's cooking always tasted like garbage. it made her feel just a wee bit better. )
( before she answers, jinx flips on the video part of their conversation. she is dressed more comfortably (like she is ready for bed) with her in a very long pontytail. she flashes a small smile to the camera and wiggles her fingers in a wave. on her neck, there is a faded red mark that once used to be more vibrant. but time as passed, so it's not as glaring. )
( so jinx sets her tablet down for a moment and disappears off screen. it might be questionable what she's doing, until her big sister can hear a door closing. and once that's nice and secured, jinx comes back into camera view and settles back in her sitting spot. this time, she will speak and not text: )
( jinx props her tablet against a wall or... something so she can be a little more hands-free. but really it's for her to throw her arms up with her cheeks twisting pink in a fluster.)
Uuuughhh, yes, okay?! The stupid nerd bug that won't go away no matter how many times I try to squish him. Yes, that guy.
( embarrassed, she tugs her knees close to her chest and hugs them tight and close. and there's something about her pouted lip that's making her appear younger than she actually is. )
I-I mean, I kinda went all in first. But I didn't think he was gonna go along with it. Or for him to act so.... so... gentlemanly about it after.
( so she changes her position again, only this time she is lying on her stomach with her legs kicking behind her (like a typical teen girl fashion). jinx seems to be fiddling something with the tablet, given what a close up she is providing of her bangs and forehead. but after a few seconds, she sends this in text: )
(∩`ω´)⊃))
Ha! There.
( her little sister scoots back a little so vi can have a better view of her face and the rest of her. )
Looks like I got the upper hand now, Fat Hands. ( but it's all fun and games when she sticks her tongue out to the camera. what a cute little brat she is being. )
And! — My future will always be makin' more gadgets and bombs. Now THAT'S the real stuff.

Within reason? Oh, c'moooooonnn! Exploding stuff is within reason. Don't you dare say it's not.
( on the brighter side of this, at least she doesn't sound seriously mad or annoying. instead, just behaving like a typical younger bratty sibling who wants to do something that their bigger sibling is telling her not to. )

even for me... i'm forgetting the little things about her, too. i know i definitely can't cook, though. i always end up cutting or burning myself.

well then.]
There's no way you're talking about the same guy, here. Ekko being gentlemanly??
[she keeps echoing all this because it's so out of left field and wild ok]
no subject
( her little sister trails off while taking a lock of her hair to twirl it between her fingertips. )
He let me freshen up at his place, helped me with my hair and we, uh... had breakfast together. That's pretty gentlemanly, right?
( and thinking back on that morning has her pinks twinkle to match her rosey cheeks. jinx bites her lower lip anxiously before clearing her throat. )
But that's no big! 'Cuz it's just a, uh, thing that won't happen again. So! Super donzo.
no subject
Vi grins a little bit at her now.]
Hey, can't argue with that. That's a lot more gentlemanly that I would've pegged him for.
[she pauses, now.]
If it makes you happy, I don't care, you know. I just need you to be safe. If... it comes to that.

[she's just saying.]
And you say that now... but keep it in mind for the future.
