WARDED TO NIA PAPADAKIS

I think I saw [...] doppelgängers.

Hm. If you don't mind my asking, could you tell me what you saw? Why you think it's the doppelgangers?

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

[...] I saw my parents, and they're not here.

Ari/Nia

[heyitsnia]

Well, that has some pretty strong implications. You're sure [...] I'm sorry. I believe you, I'm just [...] hoping maybe there are some uncanny lookalikes among parents and guardians, here. That's got to be [...] unsettling. Did they do anything suspicious?

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

It was them. [...] They didn't do anything. My mother saw me and said something to my father, and then they turned around and left. I tried to follow them but I lost track of them in the crowd.

Ari/Nia

[heyitsnia]

Alright. Thank you. It sounds like they were just setting you up for disappointment? stress? a scare? um shit being [...] assholes. I'll let the student authority and faculty know so we can all be vigilant. Want to speak with Ms. Rhee about it, directly? I can accompany you, or we can get Liberty, if you're more comfortable going with her.

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

Do we need to tell Ms. Rhee? [...] I only told you because you asked us to say something if we saw one.

Ari/Nia

[heyitsnia]

No way, not if you don't want to. Mimics tend to get [...] personal. So I can understand not wanting to share details of your encounter. I'll leave the who and the what out when I tell the senior prefects.

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

I'd appreciate it. I'd rather my brother not know.

Ari/Nia

[heyitsnia]

You've got it. I really don't like the implication that these things can turn into people that haven't even been on campus this year.

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

[...] They got in my head.

Ari/Nia

[heyitsnia]

I know. They did that to me, too. It's awful. [...] One way or another, we're going to teach them that what they're doing is unacceptable.

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

I don't like that.

[...]

But that's all. They didn't hurt me. [...] All these things they've done seem like a lot of fuss and not much else.

Ari/Nia

[heyitsnia]

I'm glad you weren't hurt. Maybe they are just like really gross [...] pests?

Ari/Nia

[novelling]

That can read our minds.
