It is how I got the shop. In exchange we have to keep a line of clothes up in heels honor. Not a bad deal especially when her style fits the aesthetic.
Now, what does Billy Kaplan want with the Dusk Court? Inquiring minds. Don't have to tell me, just observing.
She does seem your aesthetic, it's true. And the deal was fair, give or take the slow and inevitable distortion of our souls. She must like your black candles and nail polish, yeah?
Because the people i care about most are unseelie. They've tried to pit us against each other before they probably will again. especially if people start acting against them.
[ but it kind of is in some ways, isn't? he's already been compelled to hurt someone he cared about in passing - it's possible again. and this is mostly forward thinking, that has mostly proved possibility, and yet. he knows it's not foolproof.
there's a pause and it might be taken as stuttering blushing but the response follows seamlessly: ]
certain charming shop girls were part of heavy consideration.
as well as boyfriends. he's in dusk. same as agatha. most of the people from home are unseelie.
Anything less than that, like if you really thought the Courts were a horoscope and you needed it to match up like socks, I'd say that wasn't worth it. We all like things 'just so,' but Faerie deals are tricky bullshit.
how would you feel if first day into a new world. like minutes in you meet another version of yourself who proclaims you're just the same and proceeds to like
Shove his entire life in your head to demonstrate it and no you're not the same
key details are but his life is way less bullshit in the ways he thinks are the same and then he and his fiance/husband try to point out how alike you are and would probably use being in autumn as an example given you lived right next door
it's complicated. i don't see her as my mom, no. he does but he sees the kaplans as his parents, too. but for him he's lived his entire life as billy kaplan. he was born to them. i wasn't. he has a whole life, i had three years.
right around before you arrived. it's been a while. i didn't start using billy until around then either.
he did try to compare us a lot though. figure out how similar we were i spent the first few months here with people telling me who they thought i was when i didn't even know who that was really
Maybe you're both stubborn bastards is what you have in common.
But then we got that in common too, probably. He ever show up again, let me know. I'll tell him all the ways he's just like you. Get them wrong on purpose. Tell him his boyfriend is Coriolanus Snow, and fashion school is his destiny, too bad his old ass missed it.
please don't he's not even old he was my age maybe a little older. and he's not allowed to even have corioloanus jokingly. my life here is one thing he def can't say is the same
How about an older Coriolano Glow from some world makes everybody play table tennis to decide who gets food?
All right, all right. I'm just saying, maybe the mirror world nonsense doesn't end with you two. Or him. Or any of us. I don't understand it, don't think I ever will. But hopefully the other Billy stays gone.

There was another Billy Kaplan? Think I've heard of that kind of thing. Some crazy ass washer cycle with some of the people here.
[she opts not to consider the possibility of infinite claudias the vampires. though they really could join forces and become—]
He wasn't Jewish? Didn't have a mom and a Wanda Maximoff, something like that?

[easy conclusion to reach. she contemplates in silence for a long moment.]
Would it be so bad to think y'all had some kinship. Really? Could be you got more in common than not.
I mean, unless he was telling you what to eat and how to sit on the dick. No?
