[ it's a good question. she lights up when she talks about Gloss. it all comes out at once, eager to spill out as many details as she can. ]

His name is Gloss. We're twins - he's a few minutes older. He's strong and funny, and smart. He likes to read. He seems stoic and quiet at first but once he gets to know someone he'll talk their ear off. He's so protective of me. And he's tall - huge - actually. Handsome, too, but I mean, look at me. How could he not be? [ Cashmere grins. ] He's always been my favorite person in the entire world. He's my soulmate.

[ their relationship is different than most siblings, and she knows that. ] What about you? Do you have brothers or sisters?
