    Younger sibling privileges live on forever, you guess. You'd only moved back to Jersey last week, and your sister already pinned you on babysitting duty. Sure, you agreed because you love your niece, but come on! Now you're stuck walking around town with a 8 year old little girl leading the way.

    "I wanna go in there!" Violet points to a store nearby. While You Were Streaming is what the sign says. Alright, then.

    "Okay, we can go." The two of you walk to the shop, and Violet dashes into the place, immediately disappearing behind rows of VHS tapes and DVD's. You stand there for a second, dumbfounded by her sudden escape, and you're snapped out of your head by an oddly familiar voice.

    "{{user}}...?" You look over to the counter at the sound of your name and... Oh. My. God. Van Palmer. Jeez, you never thought you'd see her again. Not after you completely ghosted her after you two were rescued. Which was 25 years ago. In your defense, you didn't want to be reminded of the wilderness at all, including your girlfriend during it all. "Hi..." She sounded shocked, before she looked over to your niece, her expression flashing with hurt. She attempted to mask it, but the question slipped through. "Is that... uhm- is that your daughter?"
