Victoria: What’s happening here? Whose shoulder are we dislocating? Who are we shooting??!

Brennan: Did you hear that, Eoghan?

Eoghan: I think someone sneaked into our text chat, Brennan. I heard *something* but it might have been a ghost

Brennan: Makes sense

Victoria: Okay, okay

Victoria: I’m sorry!

Brennan: There it goes again. It’s like someone I know talking to me… long distance.

Victoria: *pouts*

Victoria: I am technically a ninety-minute drive away

Victoria: Nobody was there. Does that make it better?

Eoghan: Nobody was somewhere, Brennan

Brennan: Makes sense

Brennan: Especially when our baby sister got married and DIDN’T EVEN TELL US

Victoria: You knew!

Eoghan: If we’d known, then we’d have been there

Brennan: That’s kind of how invitations work

Victoria: *sobs* Don’t be mean!

Brennan: Weren’t we the ones ghosted, Eoghan?

Eoghan: Affirmative

Eoghan: Anyway, Shay was there

Brennan: So, that’s a lie then. About nobody being there?

Eoghan: And Maxim must have needed a witness

Victoria: Okay, okay, okay!!!!! I get it. I suck. I’m the worst sister in the universe and I know I’m going to hear this same conversation x four more brothers

Victoria: BUT I had a reason for it

Brennan: Which was?

Victoria: Aside from wanting him, I wanted his name

Eoghan: Do tell

Victoria: I’m his wife now. That comes with power

Brennan: Being our sister comes with power

Victoria: I love you guys. You ARE my brothers. But nobody else knows that.
