What does a reflection look like?

[Flandre doesn't sound afraid; she sounds excited. So much so that she's shaking--and hasn't noticed the device is facing down. The camera captures a small portion of the lake--and what seems to be a reflection. The image there certainly isn't FlandreAnyone who happens to be watching the lake tonight will see

A coordinate point, line segment, function, plane ... or image flipped about the y-axis.

I didn't have one before.

[STILL EXCITE, only partially listening! Sorry D:]

A reflection is supposed to look like whatever is in the line of sight of a reflective surface. So, if you were to look into a mirror, you would see yourself -- the way others see you.

[u_n_asplode]

...that's what mirrors are for?

[blameshimself]

...What else would they be used for?

[u_n_asplode]

I don't know. I never saw myself in them.

[thosekindeyes]

Like yourself, of course. Unuu.

[u_n_asplode]

But I see Remi.

[thosekindeyes]

Who is Remi? Is she a friend of yours?

[u_n_asplode]

Remilia is my sister!

[baka_jyanai]

-Cirno comes across her at the lake that evening. She... doesn't say anything at first. That's definitely the bat lady in the water.-

[u_n_asplode]

[The sound of Flandre cheerfully carrying on an apparently one-sided expression--in French--also carries over the water. She doesn't seem to have noticed the fairy yet.]

[baka_jyanai]

-... What was she even doing here? Flandre's smile was so happy and sincere. What right did she have to see that kind of smile anymore? She had hurt Flandre...-

[u_n_asplode]

[The illusion of Remilia stops, hovering in place. Flandre initially doesn't notice; she is a few wingbeats away by the time she does. The younger vampire flutters back, trilling a question, but the illusion does not move. Flandre tilts her head, possibly at what the voice said, and starts to look around, and--oh. Hi there.

She looks back at the illusion, as if unsure what to do. But it offers no answers.

After a moment, Flandre starts flying towards Cirno--but pauses half and then two-thirds way through, making sure she hasn't run away.]

Sorry for being a loser- I mean late

[loyal_cube]

Flandre-chan found a friend!

You're fine |3

[u_n_asplode]

Look sister--look! It's Cube.

[The camera flips over, going from recording a now-empty patch of water to Flandre's smiling face--and image of Remilia, hovering by her shoulder.]

[loyal_cube]

Hello!

[Cube waves, a bit dazed but definitely smiling]

You really are sisters... you look alike... except she is made of water...

[u_n_asplode]

I can still hear her, though.

[She's talking to the illusion, now.]

I miss you, sister.
