The sound of glass breaking. No glass actually broke of course, but rather it was a fissure of the glass web that was Vivienne Bianchi's 'reality'. She had barely stepped out of her room that suddenly, not only were things different, but it turns out that what she was quite certain used to be her past had become... altered? Her recollection of what had occurred before this day was now supposedly different than what should have actually happened...
... what the hell was going on? A normal person would have panicked, flinched and let out a 'huh'... but all that Vivienne did was stare at Liana for a moment as she made her statement. One hand with her index finger pressed against her chin, the other folded against her chest, the quiet girl was left in quite the pensive state.
This person... was supposedly someone who Vivienne had met on the bus... but Vivienne knew for a fact that this was the very first time they were meeting... was this someone with schizophrenia perhaps? Could it be that overnight, Adelaide had suddenly transformed into Liana Skye? No, Adelaide was around, even during this day... thus the obvious question should be asked...
"Miss Skye... did you know...Adelaide? She... used to live... room you occupy now..."
With that question, Vivienne's eyes peered deep into Liana's own. Realities weren't aligning, but which one should Vivienne reject? Her own, or the one that was being presented to her suddenly here--

Someone else joined in on the conversation. Vivienne had heard a door swing open behind her, but the case of Liana Skye was currently holding her absolute focus, so her attention had never left the pony-tailed, black haired woman... but hearing that voice and seeing that person that joined in... at least it seemed like part of Vivienne's 'reality' had been validated, that not everything was different. Well, out of all the nameplates, only Adelaide's had changed... so Elise Peltier walking out of Elise's Peltier room was in the end, logical. It cemented that Vivienne wasn't the anomaly here, rather the person before her was.
"Hello..."
Vivienne gave the same greeting to Elise as she had given to Liana, even showing her the drawing again and trying to pose as charmingly as she could. This was the first time that they were properly meeting too but... unlike Liana, Elise Peltier was someone that existed in Vivienne's reality. She was on the bus. She was here 'yesterday', she is here 'today', and she would still be here 'tomorrow'. The two girls had simply never done anything together due probably to both luck and... well, both making their own circles of friends and having their own separate ventures. But now, this was already changing, neighbors were talking to each other... for the first time... of the first time. As nonsensical as that was.
What had happened to Elise on Sunday, Vivienne had to wonder?
"Happy to meet you... our rooms... next to each other...?"
It was less of a question and more of a confirmation.
"Sorry... not very good at emotions... also had... bad sleep... strange dreams... Miss Skye too..."
Yes, Skye did indeed also have a 'bad' sleep. Though Vivienne's reality did not 'accept' Skye yet, the fact that they had a 'bad' rest seemed... strange. Elise too, while all cheered up and trying to be as warm as possible seemed like she may not have had the best of evenings. It was just a hunch that Vivienne Bianchi had, but as words were uttered and time passed, it slowly felt like the pieces of a puzzle were being conveniently laid out before her.
A puzzle?
Right.
There was that one time when Angelina spoke about these ominous things... in fact.... didn't she essentially predict the entirety of how it all ended? That was something to keep in mind... and something that definitely should be explored with Pyry, Hisa and Prushak eventually.
But that would come in time, back to the case at hand:
"Miss Skye... took Adelaide's room... I think... Adelaide left? Was asking if... Miss Skye knew... anything about her..."
Seeing Elise's reaction to this question, to the fact that Adelaide had gone missing... this would most likely further clue Vivienne in on the 'reality' behind Liana Skye's existence.
