Me? I'm intrigued!

[He leans back, craning his neck, trying to find a better angle to catch a glimpse of her.]

Should have told me you're Québecoise, I would have totally spilled some Anglo blood for you!

[motherserpent]

[Did everyone see that creepy-ass video? She's still grappling with what to make of it, and people keep bringing it up. That thought gets shunted aside, though.]

What do you mean, Québecoise? I thought Canadians were supposed to be nice.

[jmencalisse]

[Okay, now he's confused.]

You. You're from Québec, are you not? You do not have an accent.

[motherserpent]

Uhh...no? I'm from Colorado. Colorado just doesn't have an accent.

[jmencalisse]

Are you kidding, Americans have the worst accent of all.

You're speaking Québecois.

[motherserpent]

Nnno? No. This is...this is English....

[No. No, it is not. Tess abruptly snaps back into her native tongue.]

What the fuck. What the fuck?? I don't speak French!

[jmencalisse]

Apparently you do.

That's some raw talent you have there.

[motherserpent]

I've only got two years of high school Spanish, what the actual fuck! Did I go to Canada? When the hell did I learn French?! Is it good? You said I didn't have an accent--when the hell did I learn it that well?

[jmencalisse]

Why are you asking me? I can just tell you what I hear and that was perfect Quebecois.

The Parisian assholes would probably disagree but honestly, fuck them.

[motherserpent]

[Tess presses her lips tightly together, fuming to herself over her confusion. Is she ever going to stop discovering weird bullshit the other Tess was up to?]

So...Canada. Okay. Apparently I spent like...a year in Quebec. That's fine. Totally cool, wonder what else I got up to between learning a language and asking everyone around me to kill themselves.

[jmencalisse]

Well, you definitely have a knack for languages.

[A beat.]

Wait, what's this about asking others to kill themselves?

[motherserpent]

I mean, I'm pretty sure that's what was going on?

Shit, don't say you missed that whole thing and I could have had a normal conversation where we didn't talk about how I'm apparently bugshit insane.

[jmencalisse]

Apparently I did.

But now that I think about it and now that you speak English your voice sounds familiar. We must have talked before.

[motherserpent]

Yeah, when I woke up...when I thought I was hallucinating that whole hospital. You're the cop, right?

[jmencalisse]

Oui, that is me.

[motherserpent]

I don't suppose there's any chance of backup, is there?

[jmencalisse]

... I wish it were so.

Kind of waiting on that myself but my partner is being a dick about it.

[motherserpent]

Oh, well.

I mean, of all the ways I thought I could die, this is at least novel.

[jmencalisse]

Still hope it doesn't come to that.

... Fair point, though. It is very, what is the name of the movies with the crazy guy and the challenges?

[motherserpent]

...Saw?

[Wow dude way to put those images in her head.]
