"Don't worry; I'll ask her to tell me everything in the morning. I can't stand not knowing."

*They snuggle into Val*

"You are a wonderful girl, and I love you."

The Evening with Pipers Sister went well, at least it seemed so to Val, but she wasn't entirely sure about it.

During the Night she chose to visit Pipers Room, they can hear a gentle Knock on the Door.

*Piper opens it, holding a finger over their lips. Annie is sleeping on the floor, curled up in a ball*

"Val...."

*They hug Val, sounding worried*

[your-local-enby-therapist]

"Charlotte is away taking care of her sick grandfather at the moment. I don't think Annie feels safe while she's away."

*Piper snorts at Val's Sherlock Holmes impression*

"Hehe, you always know how to make me smile."

*Piper closes their eyes*

"I'm not sure, but she could have run into some trouble at her job. Right now, she's working as a live-in nurse. Could have something to do with the patient or their family...."

*Piper snuggles close to Val, their voice soft*

"Something's wrong. Annie won't tell me what it is, but she's afraid of something."

*They sound a little scared themself*

*Piper laughs at how fast Val got there, and Annie gives in*

"O- Okay, if you're sure! I've never tried it before, so that sounds great!"

*Piper walks into the house holding the mail. As they look it over, they see a letter addressed to them, in oddly familiar handwriting. They open it curiously, and start to read it. Their face grows increasingly concerned, then changes to a look of slight panic*

Val!

Val and Bit where in the Living Room, teaching Yuiko some Math

"Ill be right back." she tells Yuiko and lets Bit take over.

"Whats wrong?" she asks Piper.

[your-local-enby-therapist]

*Annie smiles and stands up*

"I'll only stay if Piper's okay with it...."

*Piper nods welcomingly*

"Hm, alright then! I'll stay, but don't worry about cooking anything else! I like fossil nuggets just fine!"

*Annie quickly waves her hands around*

*Annie reaches out and catches some of the confetti, while some of it goes in Piper's hair*

"Thanks for that, Val.... and I'm sorry, Piper."

*Annie looks over at her older sibling, who nods gratefully*

"All is forgiven, Nini. I'm happy that you and Charlotte are together. I hope that you're just as in love as me and Val are."

*They smile and reach for Val's hand*

*Annie presses her hands together and looks down, her lips trembling slightly*

"M- Mmhm. Piper.... I think I finally understand how you feel. I didn't know it at the time, but.... maybe I was always just like you. I just dealt with it differently, because I refused to question or change my beliefs."

*Piper looks intently at her*

"What do you mean, Annie?"

*Annie takes a deep breath and pulls a necklace out from under her shirt. A ring is attached to it.*

"I'm bisexual.... and I'm married to Charlotte. Remember her? My best friend since childhood."

*Piper just stares at Annie. It seems like they are frozen*

*Annie nods*

"Real."

*Piper wraps one arm around Val*

"Annie, why are you here?"

*Annie tilts her head*

"Hm? I just wanted to see my big sibling!"

*Her hands are trembling underneath the kotatsu*

"Lead the way, future sister-in-law!"

*Annie looks even more confused but hands Gary to Piper*

"Here, hold Gary. I'm sure he missed you."

*She pulls out a Pokeball and releases a Stoutland*

"Sebastian, do you remember Piper?! Say hi to Piper! And this is Val, say hi to Val too!"

*Sebastian whimpers curiously and sniffs Val's shoes*

*Piper can't help but smile at that. Their sister looks slightly confused but shakes Val's hand*

"Oh.... that's nice. I'm Annie!"

*Annie looks over at Piper*

"So is Val your girlfriend?"

*Piper blinks at Annie's casualness, then smiles and holds up their left hand*

"She's my fiancee, actually."

*Piper takes a deep breath*

"Okay. Right. I can do this...."

*They tense as they hear a knock on the door. They go to open it and immediately are confronted by a blonde girl wearing an eyepatch. She is holding a cactus with googly eyes*

"Hey, Piper. I brought Gary. Who's this?"

*She peeks over Piper's shoulder at Val*

*Piper wraps their arms around Val*

"Because she's brainwashed and doesn't think she did anything wrong. She thought that she was "helping me not be delusional". And now in this letter.... it's weird, she's acting like nothing ever happened. Didn't even refer to me by my deadname. I don't know what's going on."

"Um. Yeah. But-"

*They shake their head*

"The problem is, I have not seen her in five years. Not since she.... uhm.... outed me to my parents."

"It appears that we are going to have a visitor. The letter.... it was from my sister."
