Rose was quick to leave her room as soon as she had finished writing with John. While John said that Dave was cool with it, she was more skeptical of the claim. On one hand, Dave could be completely fine. On the other hand, this was Dave.

She briskly left and continued through the castle as quickly as she could while still walking. Her strides were long as she went through the castle. while she wasn't sure where Dave was, she always kind of had an instinctive knowing of where he might be. And she was really hoping she would run into him soon enough. Although the initial meeting might be awkward. How are you supposed to react to your twin suddenly being a full grown adult. Much less a full grown adult that is Roxy's mom.

She slowly pushed open the large doors and headed outside. "Dave?"

That's his job. He opens his mouth to do just that, to test her on her strilonde knowledge, when she breaks out with that last bit and what was going to be a question squeaks out of his throat. His eyes go wide behind his shades, and his face blanches.

"How the hell do you know about that?"

[seeringlight]

"I spoke in private to John when he went to the network. He kept me updated, that's all." Dave can't keep thinking that this isn't Rose. It's not like John would just tell anyone about what happened.

"Do I still need to prove my legitimacy?"

[clockspinner]

Dave didn't know what to think. He went over to this older woman and squinted up at her from behind his shades.

"Fuck, fine. Let's just. Not talk about this out here in front of everyone."

[seeringlight]

Rose just smiled softly back. The same as usual.

"Lead the way, than. I would like to get to the talking part post haste."
