[She doesn't want to say that Camilla is like her sister because she fantasizes about kissing Camilla all the time, and she's pretty sure that'd make it weird.]
They take care of me and we live together. And I do my best to help them too.
Do you have family, Beel?
[The name Beel is very intentional, like she had to remind herself to use the more casual nickname rather than saying "Lord of the Flies" outloud.]
[It's strange to hear the nickname come from someone outside the walls of the House of Lamentation or Purgatory Hall. But it still gets a soft smile from him.
Seeing that she hasn't taken the cookie offered, he shrugs and puts it back into the box.]
I do. I have six brothers. One little one, and five older ones.

Muffled:] Who's Pyrrha?
no subject
Her and Camilla and Palamedes. But Pyrrha's the oldest, so she gets confused for my dad a lot of the time.
no subject
"She" gets confused for your dad?
Do they take care of you the same way the Angel does?
no subject
It's a bit different. They're more like family, I think. While the Angel is a teacher. So they teach me science.
no subject
Oh.
Are they more like siblings, then?

[Oh.
...]
Mm. None of my brothers are exactly like me. Even my twin is completely different.
But I think they have their own ways of being kind. Maybe not all the time. But sometimes.
That's part of why I love them a lot.
[Every word is absolutely genuine.]

[Yes she has, she's just the only person in the Locked Tomb universe unaware that Coronabeth Tridentarius is a twin.]
What's your twin like? Are you close?

Belphegor's cute, and he knows it. He's pretty smart, but lazy, so he doesn't like going to school even though he's good at his classes.
He loves taking naps, though, more than anything else. It's amazing. He can fall asleep pretty much anywhere.

I know he's smart, though. We study together. He'll help me with my Potions notes a lot, because I don't do well in that class.
