"Hey," says Lexi to a lone Tony. "Do you actually want me to call you Sapphire or did you just sort of get stuck with that?"

[toblameforit]

"I just got stuck with it," he says. "Call me Tony, please, unless you desperately need to pick me out of a crowd of... other... me."

[lexicality]

"Yeah, okay. If I meet more mes at some point - which I better, it's freaky that there's all these only child Bellas - we'll probably just pick different nicknames for Alexandra. Or I could go by my middle name, that wouldn't be so bad, Phyllis."

[toblameforit]

"I have a middle name too, but it's Edward," says Tony, "and I hate pretty much all available permutations of my first name that aren't 'Tony', so when the Tonies and the Sherlocks were picking our nicknames we went by coin colour when we ran out of better ideas."

[lexicality]

"Yeah, isn't somebody married to an Edward," says Lexi vaguely. "My coin color is Peach, hey, if my Bella starts going around with a crown on do you know if that makes me a princess via sisterhood or would one of our parents have to be in on the royalty thing? Because then I would be Princess Peach."

[toblameforit]

"...I will totally call you Princess Peach if you want," says Tony, grinning.

[lexicality]

"I think I'll be Lexi till there's enough of me to be confusing at all. Like, more than one. Besides, maybe all Lexis turn out peach coins," laughs Lexi.

[toblameforit]

"I don't think there's actually been a straight duplicate yet," says Tony. "Maybe the next Lexi will be, like. Princess Nectarine."

[lexicality]

"But that wouldn't be funny," says Lexi. She picks at a hangnail just enough to get a coin and shows it off. "So do yours look like sapphires?"

[toblameforit]

"Nope, they look like a car I have that's painted in a colour called Sapphire Black."

[lexicality]

"Huh. I have no idea why I got peach. It's not even my favorite color," shrugs Lexi, "my favorite color is red."

[toblameforit]

"One of us got red!" says Tony. "The dead one, I think. With Minus and Juliet."

[lexicality]

"It is super strange that there are dead people walking around. Not even strange-amazing like there being a unicorn here, just strange."

[toblameforit]

"The unicorn is awesome," says Tony. "The dead people are - enh, I'm kinda used to it by now."

[lexicality]

"You been hanging out with -" Lexi waves at the party setup. "This crowd for a long time?"

[toblameforit]

"A while, I guess. I dunno, I kind of lost track a little."

[lexicality]

"I didn't know magic existed, like at all, even the kind we have in this world, till like a week ago, and you know the very first thing magic did? It tricked me into letting it possess me to destroy the world. So not cool."

[toblameforit]

"Wow, that sucks," says Tony.

[lexicality]

"I know, right? But Bella fixed it. Bella's smart. The way it tricked me in the first place was it was all 'I can offer you limitless power' -" Lexi does an impression of the robotic voice of the control program - "and I was like 'cool, let's hook my sister up with that, because if I get instead I'll be lucky if I get Christmas off, she will guilt me into using my powers for good, like, constantly' and it was like 'I cannot wait' and I was like 'oh fine'."

[toblameforit]

"How'd she fix it?"

[lexicality]

"I don't know all the details, 'cause I was being possessed and couldn't see what was going on, but I think she picked up Brilliance-being-a-staff-thing and shot at it a lot or something. And then I woke up and she was wearing her magical girl outfit."

[toblameforit]

"The magical girl outfit is kind of awesome."

[lexicality]

"It kind of is! Very tasteful, very if Bella's going to wear a magical girl outfit it should obviously be this one."

[toblameforit]

"Almost makes me want one."

[lexicality]

Lexi giggles. "Apparently they come with having a device? Like, Brilliance is Bella's device. But he doesn't seem to think people should usually have devices. Or maybe it's that people shouldn't make devices. Or something. He made her a little tiny one that doesn't talk, maybe that's different, but it doesn't have a dress that comes with. So I don't have one and I don't know how you'd get one either."
