"Pina? I said I cannot hear your thoughts. You will have to speak them."

"I'm leaving!"

"Leaving?" Erik said incredulously. "But you just got here!"

"That was before I knew you were fucking my brother!"

*Julian looked worried, then confused. What did that have to do with anything? His eyes sought Erik's for some hint of understanding.*

Erik's mouth fell open at her language.
"Pina!" he cried. "Who taught you such words? Erik shall speak to your mother about this. And it is none of your business who Erik f--er, with whom Erik spends his time. We are both adults; I expect you will understand in time."

"As absolutely revolting as the thought of my father having sex with anyone is," *she said with a shudder,* "I could deal with it, if it wasn't freaky incest with your son in the living room!"

Erik frowned, no longer quite holding onto his equanimity.
"Erik already apologize for the living room," he said. "We shall do our best to keep it elsewhere from now on."

"Too late!"
*She shoved the last of her clothes in the bag to punctuate it, and closed it with a final gesture.
Why he still didn't get that it wasn't so much that she'd walked in on him, but that she'd walked in on him and her brother (his son for the love of God) was still a mystery to her. She'd always known her father wasn't quite right, but this?*

*Julian was starting to look panicked. And worse, completely unable to do a thing about it. He'd never felt so impotent. Not even when Erik had lost his body, and that was saying a lot. He keep looking between mother and door, praying that Pina would see reason in all of this.*

Julian needed Pina. He needed Pina.
"Pina," he said, his voice low and almost pleading. "Pina, please. You mustn't leave us. Come, tell us, what must we do?"

"I cannot even pretend to be normal living here, dad! No. Just- no!"

Erik blinked, his countenance darkening.
"Erik wished to be 'normal,' once," he said. "'Normal' does not love such as we are, Pina. 'Normal' is not how Julian came to be, nor what he is now. Normal has no place for us, child. We are extraordinary, and the laws of man do not apply. The laws of man imprisoned me, first behind bars and later in these depths. So why should you pretend anything?"

"Because I don't want to be a freak like you!" *she shouted, upset enough to mean it and not feel at all sorry.*

*Julian blinked. She had said...no, she wouldn't. But she did. What would have sent him into a fury coming from any other only filled him with a sickening horror. How could she? Where had she learned to say such...such terrible things? Then the rage came. Richard...Megan...those that had taken her away with the promise of good faith had molded her into another member of the gawking crowd. The ones that laughed and called mean names and threw stones. Julian's body swelled in anger, but he was impotent as to direct it. For now.*
