Moonsong Glacier send the darkness

hearing reading that phoxther had a lady friend comes as a soft surprise to jr, but then again, she rationalizes, it shouldn't. it has been some time since she had crossed paths with either her mother or phoxther and their lives were bound to continue on, just as her's had. -a lady friend?!- she signs; partially excited and partially slyly. -will i have cousins this year, do you think?- she asked.

-maybe? i don't really know.- jr admits, offering her mother a sheepish look.

-it's ... different. but not in a bad way.- she struggles for a moment, trying to think of how to describe it before eventually, simply, settling for her simple ( if not vague ) explanation.
