Jay
Lizzie was positively thrilled that her shirt'd been found. She really liked the way that one was coming along; it would have been so disappointing to have to try and find another one close enough to it that would produce similar enough results.

She straightened up her room a bit (she'd gotten a bit frantic there towards the end in her looking, and she'd feel too guilty to leave a mess for her roommates to see when they got back), and then headed over to Jay's room.

"Jay!" she called, in a slightly singsong voice, tapping on the door.

"I-I don't know," he replied. It wasn't as if they could just get it to happen. As far as the twins were aware, it could just as easily be a simple reaction to Lizzie as anything. A lot of twins who manifested had complimentary powers. And those that didn't often proved immune to harm from one another's abilities. Which...was actually really comforting. Jay relaxed a little more at the clearing thought. Whatever it was, Lizzie would either be immune to it, or it would compliment her abilities. Both of which were far, far better options than anything he'd dreamed of to date.

"Guess they're right though." If something was obviously alive in there, well, he was manifesting. Plain, simple and undeniable.

Lizzie didn't know, either. It felt like the thing they should do, go update the staff that something new had happened, but - she kinda didn't want to, at least not yet. She didn't wanna leave him quite yet, wanted to keep on staying snuggled up with him, where it was reassuring. And they hadn't been able to do much 'cept tell him it was normal; they probably wouldn't do much more than that now.

Then she smiled a little. "Guess they are. Least we sort of know what's going on. It never did that before, though, just with me?" She kinda figured, but it was good to double check.

"Just you," he agreed, with a nod. "'Berto sometimes...helps out...and it's never done that before." He did not clarify that 'Berto used his powers. That the heat sunk so deeply into his body it warmed his chest. He did not say that his muscles often relaxed so deeply, he felt like his bones were the only thing keeping them from leaking out his pores. Or that he slept better when 'Berto snuck in with him late at night, curling around him and heating him up until he relaxed enough to pass out. And he sure as hell wasn't going to tell her that sometimes all his blood rushed southways in response neither. That was just something that happened sometimes, and it was embarrassing enough when it did. Weren't no reason to go sharing improper things with his sister who didn't need to know - and likely didn't want to at that.

Jay was so very glad they weren't looking one another in the face. He'd have been hard pressed to meet her eyes at the moment.

	Lizzie nodded, though she raised an eyebrow a bit at the pause between "sometimes and "helps out" there. But she didn't pursue it, because she wasn't sure she wanted to know. Instead, she finally risked moving one hand to card her fingers through his hair again. "Think it's a twin thing or just you gettin' closer to manifesting?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Dunno," he sighed. "But if it is, telling 'em ain't gonna help. They're just going to want to do more exams, and they'll haul you in...We ought to just keep it t' ourselves for now." His arms slid back around her in a loose, comfortable hug. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Wasn't like there was anything new about that, them having something just to themselves. Lizzie nodded her agreement. "They likely ain't gonna tell you nothing but that it'll be soon or something." No reason to get poked at and told the same thing again unless it was something serious. And, okay, moving things, but they weren't hurting, and manifesting could be strange.

She snuggled back into him. "I'm still expecting you to let me know when it gets bad."

	"I promise," he replied, snuggling her back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She relaxed at that. He wouldn't break a promise to her, he just wouldn't. Lizzie sighed, watching her breath ruffle a few strands of his hair, then closed her eyes. "Good," she murmured. (Reply to this) (Parent)
