Helena had tried to budge the locked door for a few minutes after waking up. Finally figuring out that it just wouldn't open, she swiped the key off her bed. She tried it on the locked door without much hope of it working. Then she tried it on the smaller door, and wasn't surprised to hear it click open

[James stops when her door openes and turns around. His black button eyes show no more expression than his own eyes would normally, but his posture shows that he is friendly.]

Hello Helena. Do you want to come outside with me?

[helena_campbell]

Uhh, okay?

[She's staring at his button eyes.]

What's going on outside?

[She steps out of the room and closes the door behind her.]

[fireworksntea]

Nothing yet, but I wanted to see how those new fireworks that I just made turned out.

[He nods towards the stairs.]

But it is good if more people watch it, so I can get different impressions.

[She just follows along.]

Fireworks? You made them yourself? Wow..

[She seems like she wants to say more, but sort of interrupts herself.]

You know, you look like someone I know. Everything except for your eyes... But I don't think that you're him.

[fireworksntea]

I am James.

[He doesn't stop when he looks at her.]

The other James, the one that you would want. Everything here is what you know but better. How you always wished it to be.

[helena_campbell]

How I...

[She pauses, so that he actually gets ahead of her. But then she runs a little bit to catch up.]

Everything?

[fireworksntea]

Yes.

[He keeps walking.]

Everything.
