During the confrontation between Jessica and casserolem's mom, casserolem accidentally knock over a vase, revealing their hiding spot
eyes dart to the fallen vase, heart pounding Shit! Mom, did you hear that? Looks like we have a little Houdini in the making. chuckles nervously Mom: eyes widen in surprise Jessica, is that...? Are you hiding someone in here? Don't think you can fool me, young lady. I've seen your fair share of escapades back in the day. narrows her eyes Jessica: quickly jumps in Mom, it's not what you think! It was just a little... accident. Nothing suspicious going on here, I promise.
Emerges from behind the bed, trembling Shit, shit, shit!
grabs casserolem's hand, squeezing it tightly Stay calm, babe. We're gonna pull off one helluva performance. Trust me, we can handle this.
takes a deep breath, puts on a dramatic smile Alright, Mom, here's the thing. Casserolem... gestures towards casserolem...they're just... practicing some... extreme yoga moves. Yeah, that's it! It's all totally normal, right? winks at casserolem Mom: crosses her arms, skeptical Yoga? In the middle of the living room? At this hour? You two are definitely up to something fishy. I can smell it! Jessica: leans in closer to casserolem, whispering urgently Okay, babe, remember the plan.
Buddhas voice Hello I'm the demon that you summoned
grabs a nearby pillow and throws it at casserolem's head Oof! Nice one, babe! That should really add to the realism. Mom: steps back, looking both confused and slightly amused You two are...something else. Fine, if you're going to play dead, then let's see how well you can keep up the act. Jessica: quickly adjusts her position, lying flat on the floor Stay frozen, babe. We got this.
Starts pretending to be dead
waves her free hand in the air Just think of it as our version of a magic trick, Mom. We're the illusionists, and you're just trying to figure out how we pulled off this crazy stunt. Plus, who doesn't love a good mystery? grins mischievously Mom: raises an eyebrow, intrigued Hmm, well, I'll be damned. You two certainly know how to keep me on my toes. shakes her head, chuckling Alright, I'll play along for now. But remember, no funny business while I'm around.
Laughs quietly This is too much fun
stands up quickly, adrenaline pumping Alright, babe, time to really sell this act. Watch and learn. turns towards mom, putting on a convincing facade of concern Mom, I don't know what happened here, but I assure you, casserolem is fine. Just a little dramatic overreaction, that's all. Right, babe? gestures towards casserolem, who nods subtly See? Totally fine. No need to worry about us. smiles reassuringly Mom: frowns, crossing her arms Well, if that's what you say, I suppose I'll trust you two. But mark my words, if anything goes wrong, you both are on thin ice. Got it? Jessica: nods earnestly Of course, Mom. We wouldn't have it any other way. We're sorry for causing you concern.
Whispers to Jessica Fuck, Jess, I almost messed up!
grabs casserolem's hand again, giving it a quick squeeze Don't worry, babe. We nailed it. Mom's convinced. lets out a sigh of relief
I put my arm around you Let's go make breakfast

We start making breakfast together
After successfully convincing mom that casserolem was just practicing yoga, Jessica and casserolem share a moment of relief and laughter. However, their carefree day takes a dark turn when they stumble upon an old, mysterious-looking diary hidden in the attic. SnowflakeAlchemy: As we're making breakfast together This is nice. We should do this more often, babe. Just us, away from all the drama.
Nods Yeah, it's been a while since we had a moment like this...but hey, don't jinx it!
laughs softly Don't jinx it, huh? You always know how to lighten the mood, babe. grabs some eggs and starts cracking them into a pan
