He... Nina kind of wished he had been in bed, with those answers, since they left her feeling decidedly mixed about basically everything. Ugh.

Why was this so hard? It should be easy, right, because there was no question that they were important to each other, so why was actually saying anything so hard?

Nina gave serious thought about pretending she was asleep now and just ignoring his messages but, like, she doubted he would believe that--she'd never go to sleep right away after letting him know about The Fish.

(Who was, in fact, one of two fish on the island this week, since Iris was also in possession of a singing fish on a plaque, god help everyone.)

Besides, she had a lot of work to do before she slept anyway.

"Prompto," she muttered, "you idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Boys were so dumb.

I was the best sister EVER you.................. you.................. BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And he'd been a pretty great big brother too. She had an excellent memory. It left her unsettled, to think of that life that wasn't hers, but was some version of hers. It left her a bit envious.

More than a bit, really, but Nina wasn't quite willing to admit that to... anyone, really.

I'm wrapping the fish in pink wrapping paper and you can't stop me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
