"I drawed one too," Marcella piped up. "It's better!" "Is not!" Mattathias retorted.

"He's got a goat head too but his horns are curvier and his cloak is bigger. And he's got big teeth and he's smiling and stuff. I did more details than Mattathias did!"

“I’m sure both are great,” Ky said. “No one has to be better for both to be very good.”

"But mine is better," Marcella said primly, and Mattathias turned beet red as he glared at his sister. "Both of you hush," Pamela scolded. "You're both equally good for different reasons."

Ky smiled a little at that. What would it be like if she had a twin? God help them all.
(Dramatic irony lol)

Mattathias took a deep breath, then another one, still red in the face. Emery glanced at Pamela, who rubbed his back gently. Marcella looked around for food, unconcerned.

(She will! I actually did an absurd amount of driving last week so I had a lot of time to think about this xD and I think if it works out it’d be fun to have Jerica and Co show up when Zander happens to be there, too, so he can have the “ohhhh shit” moment that will probably inevitably lead to the truth lol at least truth that he’s going to have to tell Tomhas (and Gaius if he’s also there) — it’ll be delightfully tortuous xD and I can’t wait to see your guys’ reaction to the revelation hahah how do you think Tomhas will take it?)
“Hey Mattathias! Knock knock,” Ky said.

(That would be absolutely excellent XD Tomhas will be very conflicted...I won't reveal any more but I have an excellent idea of his reaction)
"Who's there?" he asked tightly, scrubbing at his eyes.

(Haha poor guy — I guess I should think through Ky’s reaction, too lol I was thinking of the shock of finding out she has birth sisters, but now idk how she’d feel about her birth parents especially since she’s a Medeiros turned Ruiarc turned Loquitur)
“Interrupting cow.”

Mattathias hesitated, some of the blood leaving his face as he gave her a look of confusion. "Interrupting cow w--"

Mattathias jumped, giggling in surprise. "Knock knock!"

Zander laughed as he watched this unfold. Ky had always been good with the younger kids in her township, and it seemed that she’d grown even more in that skill. A master of deflection.
“Who’s there?” Ky asked.
“Wa!” Tasia said excitedly, fully intending to repeat Tomhas’s joke.
“Shh,” Aashi chided. “This isn’t your joke.”
Tasia pouted.
