[ it isn’t just the voice that’s different. lucien’s entire presence has suddenly changed—or, no, even that doesn’t feel quite right. it’s someone else entirely, just close enough to butt in at a moment’s notice. ]
I'm not the one calling the shots, that's just how it is.
[ He senses some attachment to Lucien from Dextera that kind of reminds him of how it'd felt when he'd first met Yoko. That itchy feeling of being not the favorite of the two personalities. ]
He's fine, he isn't hurt. He's still me.
[ Defensively bundles themselves together now in attempt to make Dextera to like him... ]
dextera can feel that little flare of defensiveness, and it’s endearing if he imagines lucien, but the voice he’s hearing from dark is so utterly different that he can’t actually make the image match for long. ]
He’s you?
[ it’s not entirely impossible to understand, but he’s baiting more details. ]
My consciousness reincarnated into the same human soul as him, so yeah. We're the same person.
[ For now and because it's confusing to even himself, Dark doesn't drop the deets on the kid's secret self-awareness. Lucien has addressed Dark directly a couple of times in their headspace before now but otherwise ignores him. He must not like him very much... ]
That's why we wound up with two shards but one body. You were really interested in that, weren't you?
[ dextera doesn’t like dark having that knowledge. it feels as if someone has eavesdropped on a private conversation, even if what he says is true and couldn’t be helped. ]
I guess you weren't planning to tell either one of us. Of course we'd be interested when you react to it the way you did. Does this mean we've got to start keeping secrets too?
[ dextera doesn’t feel that it’s a matter of sensitivity… but maybe he is being emotional about this. he thinks he deserves to. ]
I would have told Lucien.
[ he realizes, of course, that this means the other personality would have known is this conversation is any indication, but now he’s just being petty. ]

[ Dark loves to shock people, even if it's long distance and through communion only! He can only imagine the face Dextera must be making. ]
Don't worry, I'm a way more interesting character. I'm the protagonist! Lucien's just my plot device.
[ He presumes so, anyway... ]

That’s no way to talk about the person you’re sharing a body with.
