[ her heart sputters behind her rib cage, and suddenly all of her words run dry. her sister really believes their story was the other way around. but now begs the question, does she tell vi the truth now? jinx sucks in her lips as she watches her sibling closely on the camera, hoping that by doing this will keep her from blaring out something she shouldn't. what the hell should she do? she is so beside herself on what's the right choice of action. ]
O-Oh...
[ the word slips out in quivers, now teething at her lip this time as she thinks this over carefully. ]
Have.... you spoke to Silco about all of this yet?
[ jinx is purposely focusing the conversation on silco's reaction, than voicing if everything is alright. because maybe if she had an idea how her father is treating the situation, she can follow suit somehow? if silco accepts vi as part of the family, then she will behave accordingly and reassure her sister things are squared away. but... will doing that backfire on her later? ]
[ jinx wrinkles her brow, and swallows down her frustration as inconspicuous as possible. of course silco would put on an indifferent demeanor about this whole ordeal. so much for monkey see, monkey do. she rolls her tongue behind her lips as she ponders carefully over her next move. maybe sticking to the subject of silco will buy her a little more time. ]
Tell me about it.
[ she says, with an unintentional grumble in her tone and with a hidden double meaning. honestly, he couldn't give her some kind of clue on how to handle this?! but maybe the justification for this, is because he's waiting to see how she will take the news, and decided on his own to monitor his daughter's actions.
the duo tends to have unique ways of communicating, and this method is no exception. if they can't convey with each other verbally face to face, they sometimes use a third party to deliver messages without the third person's awareness. so in this case, silco's detached behavior is essentially him standing with his hands behind his back, and questioning jinx how should they approach this. to which her response is, 'how in the heck should i know?!'. ]
I mean, I've mostly talked to him through the tablets. I haven't really seen him in person. Just a few glances.
[so she can't really tell much on body language or anything like that... and she's too oblivious to really notice that much anyway. just so long as he doesn't want to fistfight her, anyway.]
[ it's her weird roundabout to answer her question with another question. all in all though, jinx sighs in defeat of the whole situation and decides to say the most reachable thing she can muster up. ]
Listen, Sis, as long as you're not hurt or whatever, everything's okay.

Yeah, he acted a little weird too. Are you sure everything's okay?
[maybe something's not right after all. she's so confused...]

[which isn't terribly odd to her. he's always kind of like that.]
He's hard to read sometimes.
