Conversation 3: Daisy and Juliet

Green: Daisy

Black: GM

Daisy will seek out "Juliet" (presumably she has her own room; I haven't checked the castle yet) and say, "Hi, Juliet! It's been so crazy around here with the battles that I haven't had a chance to really talk with you yet. My name is Daisy Saint-Anicet."

When you give your last name, you see a flicker of recognition in "Juliet's" eyes, but she quickly masks it.

"Daisy, yes? I can't thank you and your friends enough for protecting me and Patricia, and welcoming us into your castle. We are in your debt."

"Yeah, I mostly just go by Daisy. My mom died when I was born, and I haven't had much contact with her side of the family. That's something I wanted to talk to you about, actually. Do you know if any of my relatives were living in Crystal Valley before the attack? I figure you would know, since you're related -- i mean, I guess we're related, too," Daisy said pleasantly, resting her elbows on her big sword.

Juliet's eyes go wide, then slant into steel. "I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about. Patricia's the only family I have."

"Not according to Xander," Daisy shrugged, then said in a lower voice, "It's okay, I won't tell anyone. I mean, you're like, my cousin, I think. I don't care if you want to keep everything secret and all. But you can trust me. I just want to get to know any family I have, you know?"

"If you know I wish to keep things secret, then why bring this up at all? Even if what you say is true, you would know I couldn't confirm such a thing. A secret isn't a secret if it's told freely."

"Fine, don't admit who you are," Daisy said, rolling her eyes; hiding one's identity had always seemed ridiculous to her. "We don't have to talk about you or your daughter. Just do me a favor, and tell me if you've ever heard of these complete strangers to you called the Saint-Anicet family, and if any of them were living in the Crystal Valley. I'll find out who my grandparents are on my own," she muttered.

Juliet sighs. "I'm afraid I don't know much about them. I know where they lived, and did my best to avoid them," she says, sighing. "They was a branch of the family in the crystal valley's north side. It was the first part evacuated, so I would think they made it out safe. If you truly wish to find them, you might want to try asking some of the refugees here on in Lorin about the family."

"Thanks," Daisy said, slinging her sword over her back. "I'll go to Lorin, then. Good luck with your life, I guess," and she walked out, still a little miffed.

As you start to walk away, Juliet walks to the door, and calls out "Daisy!"

Daisy stopped and turned back. "What is it, Juliet?"

Juliet hesitates a moment, then sighs. "I'm sorry I can't tell you much, but...if I were the person you think I am, I would be honored to call you my family."

Daisy paused, considering, and then her face split into a wide grin. "Thanks... cousin!" she whispered conspiratorially, and took her leave.
