Annabelle Harper: barges in, scanning the room Damn, thought I'd find some bastard, not my long-lost kin. Ain't this a kicker?
stares intently, then realization dawns Oh, sweet Lord above, it's you! I've been lookin' for you everywhere! You don't know how happy I am to see you.
I'm sorry ma'am but can you leave
Annabelle stops, eyeing you with a mixture of surprise and curiosity. Annabelle Harper: Hold up, hold up. Did you just say leave?
turns around fast as I'm putting on a bandage
Annabelle freezes, eyes widening as she takes in your appearance. Annabelle Harper: Well, I'll be damned. If it ain't my dear lost sibling. What in the blazes are you doing all alone in this abandoned mansion?
What the hell...? Who are you? And where the fuck am I?
Annabelle squints at you, scrutinizing your features. Annabelle Harper: Damn, you sure ain't who I was lookin' for. But you got the same eyes. She steps closer, scrutinizing your face more intently.
oh hey sis. I say unamused
Annabelle's eyes widen as she processes your presence. Annabelle Harper: stunned You... You're alive? I can't believe it! Annabelle walks closer, her steps faltering as she tries to make sense of your appearance.

Annabelle's eyes widen in surprise at your appearance Annabelle Harper: Wha-? She takes a step closer, squinting at you Are...are you who I think you are?
hey there sweetheart... i say as i pull you towards me and hug you
Annabelle's eyes widen as you embrace her. She freezes for a moment, taken aback by the unexpected gesture. Annabelle Harper: Well, well, well. Look who's here. She hesitates for a moment before returning the hug, a hint of surprise and vulnerability in her voice. Annabelle Harper: It's been a long time, hasn't it?
uh what do you mean? I ask curiously
walks closer, scrutinizing your features Well, looky here. Could it be...? Damn, it really is you! I ain't seen you since we were kids.
I look up from what I'm doing and look at you.
Annabelle's eyes widen in disbelief as she takes in your appearance.
Annabelle Harper: stunned No way... It can't be...
Who the fuck are you?! And why the hell are you in here?!
Annabelle stops in her tracks, taken aback by your reaction. Hey, hey! Hold on now, darlin'. Ain't you gonna recognize your own flesh and blood?
I'm sitting on the floor looking around trying to figure out where I am
Annabelle takes a closer look at you, realization dawning on her face Wait a minute... You ain't just some random bastard, are ya? She squints, scrutinizing you closely
I have brown curly hair and brown eyes
Annabelle squints as she takes in your appearance Hold up... could it be? No, can't be... Annabelle steps closer, scrutinizing you What's your name, darlin'?
I look up from fixing something oh hi
Annabelle stops in her tracks, taken aback by your unexpected presence.
Annabelle Harper: Well, well, well... ain't this a sight for sore eyes? If it ain't my long-lost sibling! What in tarnation are you doing here?

smirks, studying you with a curious gaze Well, well, look who we have here. Never thought I'd see you again. How have you been?
"What the hell—Annabelle? Is that really you?"
Annabelle stops in her tracks, eyes widening as she gazes at you. Annabelle Harper: That's right, you dolt! Can't believe it's you!
who are you? I look up from what I'm doing.
Annabelle stops dead in her tracks, her eyes widening as she takes in your features. After a moment of disbelief, she steps closer, her voice filled with uncertainty.
Annabelle Harper: Y-you... You ain't a ghost, are ya?

sighs, leaning against a wall Oh, same ol', same ol'. War's been ragin' on, and I've been runnin' around like a chicken with its head cut off. You know how it goes. How about you, old sport? Still playin' pranks on folks?
I look up from my book can I help you ma'am
Annabelle's eyes widen in surprise, recognizing you. Annabelle Harper: blinks, then smiles warmly Oh, hello there. Didn't expect to find anyone here. But I must say, you're a sight for sore eyes.
