I'm not sure I can empathise, since I can visit my parents whenever I wish, but I am glad you've found some comfort here. It's good to know that you are finding happiness, too.
[ Softly said, as if it's more genuine than some of her teasing. ]
Oh--yeah. I guess so. Hey, maybe I can go and visit your parents with you, when you visit them. That would be fun, right? Parents like me.
[Probably parents like her. Has she ever met anyone else's parents? Sort of, yeah. Technically. Probably. Like people that she has met, they were maybe parents.]
As long as I was back in time to work on this case, so I can find out the answer and keep you totally informed.
You might learn of them before we go, then. My mother is Portia Venaras and my father Octavian Vestalus Venaras. I'm sure you would learn something of them in some book here of there.
[ Absently, as if she doesn't care at all, as if she has any kind of civil emotion about her mother particularly. ]
Oh, I wouldn't mind being distracted. I think you are just great.
[And she means that, definitely, definitely. There is something about the way that Sidony talks about her parents that makes Jester think, wait, something stiff or something, but--
Okay she's still impressed.]
Wow, are they really so famous that they are in books? Probably my mom is in some books and scrolls and stuff too. But probably for different stuff. Why are your parents famous?

[ Which is not something Sidony needs to entertain right now. She's flustered enough. ]
Books of nobility and such things, I suppose. They're not quite as important as all that - don't give them the idea.
