"I suppose you were fated to pair," Carlisle thinks aloud. "Growth and decomposition. How very Manichean. Do you get along well? Other than her talent."
"Sounds like Edward and myself," Carlisle smiles at him, thinking of the man left at the piano downstairs. "But I think most people get on well enough if both are on their best behavior."
"I can only assume you two aren't related." Harry isn't implying anything, but he called Edward by his name and not by his brotherly title, so he thinks it's a pretty good guess.

"Most definitely. And yes, I'm here with my sister. You might've seen her -- bright purple hair. Lots of piercings and tattoos."
In other words, his polar opposite.

"So I...would never have noticed you were both related, more than likely."
Unless they smell similar?
"What is her talent?"

"It's ... kind of bothersome. Her side of the room is always filthy." Euugh.

"Well ... yeah, that's what she's doing." Charity doesn't have her brother's friendly constitution.
