"Your other circumstances are awfully suggestive all by themselves, but yes, Rae is how it gets confirmed."
"In the case of Bells - names, personality, notebooking, we think we have matching parents but Spring doesn't remember hers well, we all look at least sort of like each other - you look like you could be our brother, Spring is almost just a palette swap of us three - and the ones of us who are from Earth seem to have been all born in the same town and the name of the town I was born in is suspiciously alike."
"For Adarins - names, personality, a twin, matching birth parents and a usually present adopted father - there's only been one exception to that so far." He glances at Edarial, then continues. "We also tend to be surrounded by terrible people, and we do the - math thing. Our scales are also the same, it's wonderfully charming and makes it easier to compare notes."
"I thought I was the exception, and then I remembered, a dragon is trying to kill my girlfriend. So, yeah, surrounded by terrible people, all of us. Except for Bells, obviously." Pause. "And our twins. And dads. But that's it, everyone else is fair game for being terrible."
"Oh, also - our moms are all universally crazy. So there's that, too."
"Anyway, we can fly to Luna and have the rest of this conversation there," says Cam, snuggling his angel and starting to make a shuttle with sufficient passenger room.
She kind of wants to tell him how much she missed him, but now there is a crowd of alts. Watching.
"How long does a trip to Luna take? Iobel and I sort of - have a country. To run."
"Not all day or I'd have said, but a while, you should probably nip back to run your country. Also, good for you, running a country."
And then, off they go, back to their country!
"I might sit the rest of this excursion out too, I have class in an hour."
"I'm off today, want me to tag along and take notes for you? Or something?"
"I love you, too. I'll take copious notes and maybe tackle one of the demons to try medallion experiments."
"You realize you could try asking politely before graduating directly to the invasion of personal space?"
