"You said," Olivia said, appearing in the mirror, "that Daddy—that Hugh Marhenke isn't my father."

"He's not," Yvonne said, applying mascara. Why Olivia chose now to bring this up... "Your real father is a god, though."

Olivia lowered her eyes. Did nothing please that girl? "What god?"

Yvonne shrugged, and picked up her blush. "His name was Boreas. He was very good to me, but he won't care much about you."

"No," Olivia said, "I don't suppose he would," and disappeared.

Little fool. Yvonne rolled her eyes, then forgot her daughter.

She had more important things to think about.

I can definitely that Olivia's figuring something out here. It's a little overwhelmed by my wanting to shake Yvonne, as always. XD

Yvonne finds the most perfectly in-universe ways to be herself. She's like an ookie, black bug that finds the perfect hiding place every time. You know she's there, and you're afraid, but then again, the bug remains fascinating.

Oh, and I SEE WAT U DID THAR.

I approve.

And welp, if it /is/ that Boreas, I wouldn't object beyond the frantic skin-scrubbing after finding out things listed that way. So if you want to! And you have the soap.
