[FLETCHER IS ON HIS WAY.

And then he is there, knocking on her door.]

Dylan? It's me.

[... It take a few moments for her to answer. She looks anxious and irritated. And there will be a smell of burning when she opens the door.


She might have just tried burning her journal. Um.]



I... have more explaining to do now, huh?

[She steps back to let him in.]

[knowmycall.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, he smells it. And he looks concerned. But he steps inside anyway, looks around—no billowing flames, so it's probably fine—and shrugs at her.]

Only if you want to.

[She shuts the door after him and turns, leaning against it. She bites down on her lip.]

I.. Um.

[Awkward pause.]

No one else really knew my real name. ... Apart from one person, cause the Rift made me little again.

I didn't want people to know yet.

[knowmycall.livejournal.com]

Well... people know, now.

But if y'don't want anyone callin' you that—if you still prefer Dylan—I'm sure everyone would understand. Just let 'em know.

[As far as he figures, Dylan must have a good and deeply personal reason for not wanting people to know her real name, so he won't prod.]

[fellfrommyheart.livejournal.com]

... They do.

[She makes a pained face. Stupid Chicago.]

I was thinkin'. Like.. the person. Who. Knew? Well, I was thinking, when I went home. That. Maybe I might go back to my old name, one day. Or something. I don't..

But I wanna be Dylan for a little while longer. Then.. maybe I can be Evie again.

[Pause.]

So... you'll still call me Dylan even if you know what my real name?
