Repeating herself was annoying, but she took that as a good sign. The Universe would surely be annoyed too. "Nevermind. Do you think you'd ever write a book? I would buy that." And then she would read it. And then she would set it on fire. "Hey, I should write a book too! We can be twinsies and write books together!" That would be traumatizing for her and boring for them. But also, really good for publicity. "We could make each other look bad. Then there would be drama. And then people would have to read both of our books, and we would make loads of cash. That's what famous people do, y'know." Although she was joking, there was a hint of truth in her words. Making a book to yell at someone else was probably the best get-rich-quick scheme on the planet. And if they wanted money, that would be a great way to get some. Her father had taught her that. A terrible father, but a great businessman. It was a shame she couldn't have both.


What, Nem wondered, should be first on the agenda, upon reaching school. Sure, there was the feast, but beyond that. They had some things to sort out, and then they'd obviously be stopping by to see the Headsman. Maybe Recard too. And Varma. Perhaps Weasley. Schmoe. How much did any of them know? Would any of them even be back, or had they totally lost their composure and quit the castle? Nem also had to admit to a little curiosity regarding the status of the Wooden Bridge, and the ravine below it, but none of these things would provide much in the way of long-lasting entertainment. Bernadette would be around, at least. Oh, and they didn't doubt that some of those have-a-go heroes would be crawling out of the woodwork, now they had their opportunity. That might be fun.

Nem had drifted back to their book again, clearly back to paying very little attention to the inane prattling. It wasn't unlike accidentally setting Ezra off with anything that reminded him of a Thrianta or whatever, only when he got going he tended to stick with the same topic and get really into the minutiae of the matter. Showed he really did have something resembling a brain in there, so... maybe the two situations weren't that alike after all. "I'm not interested in drama. Or fame."

They shifted slightly now so their bony shoulder blades pressed against the wall of the compartment, and ran a crooked index finger back and forth along the neckline of their shirt. "And I already have a twin. We're very alike." That depended on perspective, but though a veritable chasm of difference had been opening up between them over the years, Nem and Pax were still strikingly similar in some ways. Appearance, for example. Certain aspects of it, at any rate. Nem paused at a point on their current page, marked it with a finger, and flipped back several chapters to check something else as they spoke. "Like looking in a mirror."
