[Klaus just...isn't going to discuss their feelings on the lack of belief in magic. She can't just deny something cause it doesn't make sense to her, but where will arguing it even get anyone? Nowhere. She'll keep saying some fake potentially scientific way to explain something that can't be explained with magic.]

I love you. [Quick kiss.]

We've done way worse than that. And siblings doesn't feel like anything weird and mystical. [Klaus sighs.] And yet it still sounds like soldier vibes. And I'm not a strict guidelines kind of person. I managed in her memories because I didn't want to make things worse for her, but all the time? No, thanks. At least my siblings were up front and honest when they were insulting me. It wasn't like those period dramas.

[Klaus squints slightly. They're vulnerable all the time. But then again, oversharing is probably a trauma response, isn't it?]

I think I'll just...uhhh...ignore that. [Because being siblings is a thing and, like they said, it doesn't feel like something that's so confusing.] I don't think anyone has ever assumed that they need to prove anything to me. I don't know.

[But they're distracted by the attention to their ears.] Will she even let herself be happier?

[They don't really know if they can stay focused on this conversation with everything now.] That's the easiest thing you've ever asked me to do. [And just to make a point, they bring one hand down to carefully grab his ass.]

[They snort softly] You absolutely did do that and forced me to do it, too. You menace.
