This is to kelkyag‘s prompt to this bingo card.
It fills the “Treacherous Sister” square.
Zenobia is the post-American-Civil-War Aunt in the Aunt Family; her tag is here and the family landing page is here.
The Icon (in DW) is of another Aunt, Ruan. I don’t have one for Zenobia yet.
This is semi-concurrent with Securing One’s Own Legacy.
It was odd things that tipped you off.
The way your sister Alexandra wore her hat when she went out; the way your sister Bernadette tried not to giggle when Alexandra stepped out, the way your mother was more fierce than normal with the knife, preparing dinner, and more generous than usual with your portions.
It was odd things that saved you – the necklace your grandmother had given you, that whispered warnings, the flowers an uncle had shared, that gave off a dangerous odor, the way Alexandra never could learn to step lightly, even when she was plotting murder.

Huh. Alexandra who isn’t even a candidate herself? Iiiiinteresting.
I’m sure she has a reason for being horrible.
But what iiiiiis it? Really, over time, I strongly encourage resolving almost as many questions as you raise. 🙂
I think I need a chart of questions raised 😀
And a list of all the unfinished stories? 🙂 (Or at least the last one in each thread.)
Yes, that would also be helpful.
