Sunny greets Coral at the front door, opening the door just for her. Coral smiles weakly.

Sunny
* JAZZA!!

Coral
* Sunny...

Sitara
* Ah! Jasper!

Sunny pulls her in for a great big hug.

Sunny
* Fuck are you a sight to see!
* Glad to see you, mate!

Sitara
* Same from me, aha...

Coral
* Yeah...
* It's good to see you both.

Sunny
* How long's it been?
* Fuck, it was that misadventure at your island!
* Shit, you ever get your dad back? I didn't fuck that up for you, did I?

Coral
* Oh... oh, yeah. I did.

Sunny
* Hahey! That's my cunt!
* Knew you could get past those sugar sprinkle fucks.

Coral
* I didn't really "get past" them, Sunny...

Sunny
* Eh, splitting hairs.
* Me, you would not believe the shit I've been through.
* You know I went to another fuckin' planet?
* Like I was doing a part time stint on Doctor fucking Who?

Coral
* Heh... yeah?

Sunny
* I was living in a fuckin' Akira basement. Wild shit.
* Christ, I was getting ready to swallow I might never see your stupid arse again, you know that?

Coral
* Yeah...
* I missed you too.

Sunny
* That's enough outta me, though.
* What've we got going on in the Principality of Jazza, ay?

Coral
* I need to talk to Jiro.


Sunny's face grows dark as she backs off from the hug.

Sunny
* ...Why.

Coral
* I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.

Sitara
* Ah,--

Sunny
* Yeah, I'll bet. Why.

Coral
* I just-- I need to talk to him. One on one.
* Please.

Sunny
* Orright, fuck this. No.

Coral
* Sunny, please.
* All I want to do is talk. It'll be okay.

Sunny
* Don't give me that shit, Jazza!
* Do you think I don't fucking know you, after all these years!?
* I KNOW what "just talk" means from you!

Coral
* That's not...

Sunny
* You pick people people apart, piece by fuckin' piece, and you don't even fucking know you're doing it!!
* It's like a fuckin' instinct for you! You can't turn it off!

Coral
* I know you're mad, Sunny, but this isn't just about me anymore!

Sunny
* Fucking spare me.
* I'm not gonna let you march upstairs and give my guy a new mental fucking illness just you can achieve whatever it is you think--

—Jiro—
...
Stop.
→Let me talk to her.

Jiro has come down from the bedroom, standing halfway up the stairs with a hand resting on the banister. He is still covered in Nix's blood.

Sunny
* Jiro...

—Jiro—
...
Stop trying to save me
I can't stand this anymore
→I want to talk to her.


Sunny looks defeated. The fire leaves her heart.

Sunny
* ...Okay.
* Orright.



Coral walks past her and proceeds up the stairs.
