Trucy's POV - she can be happy to have a sibling, or extremely jealous, or whatever anon wants - it's up to you.
----------
Usually I go to my Daddy when I have a problem, especially when it's partly with him. But I'd only just found out what he'd been keeping from me, and he was in such a good mood about his friend Mystic Maya coming to visit that I didn't want to ruin it - I guess I'm kind of a softy sometimes.
Daddy told me Mystic Maya and I were going to love each other. I wasn't totally sure about that, but I'd already decided that if I didn't like her I could pretend I did for as long as she was visiting, because she was going to have to go back to that village of spirit mediums anyway.
My first impression of her was that she had a very loud voice, because I heard her yelling from the lobby. "Niiiiick!" No one called my Daddy Nick that I knew of; he was Mr. Wright or Phoenix.
I got to the lobby in time to see her jump on my daddy, looking almost like a giant purple moth attacking him with all her robes fluttering. "Nick! It's been way too long! And what's going on with this place? Don't you know anything about cleaning anything but toilets?"
That made Daddy chuckle, the one that gets on Polly's nerves because it means he doesn't get all flustered like Polly does, and like Daddy used to. "It's homey this way," he told her.
Then Mystic Maya noticed me. "Nick! Is that your daughter that you wrote to me about?"
Daddy followed her gaze. "That's my Trucy," he told her.
"Oh my gosh, Trucy, it's so good to finally meet you." She jumped forward and grabbed my hand, bouncing as much as I usually do. It's weird, seeing your own habits in someone else you've never met before, especially someone who's your daddy's friend. "I love the cape, and the hat. Nick says you're a really good magician, too."
I couldn't help but grin at that. "I do the best I can."
"Hey, has Nick been feeding you? Because I know sometimes he can be forgetful and not remember that a girl's got an appetite..."
She really did know my daddy. "I keep him in line," I told her. "I do all the business things. All daddy has to do is play the piano and poker, and sometimes sign things because I'm not old enough to do that yet."
"Good! I'm glad Nick's got someone like you taking care of him. And you seem like you can take care of yourself."
"Pretty much. And Polly, too."
"Polly? You mean you took that parrot? Where is it?"
"Not Polly the parrot," Daddy said. "Polly's what she calls Apollo - I believe I wrote to you about him, too?"
"Oh, that's right - the one around here who still actually has his lawyer badge."
"I could get mine back if I wanted."
I spoke up. "It's just that law's such a boring profession. It doesn't sound good on a flashy card. Though I guess it was kind of fun, helping Polly in the court."
"I used to help Nick in court all the time," Mystic Maya told me. "Oh, before I forget, there's someone both of you should meet." She turned back towards the door, and called, "Melia? Come out and meet Mr. Nick and Trucy."
One of the most adorable little faces I'd ever seen peeked around the corner. Okay, so maybe I say that about every kid, the most adorable. But this one - she had eyes just like my daddy's, which looked totally different in an innocent little kid's face than in his face. And she was wearing robes like Mystic Maya, and had her hair done in the same way.
"Nick, this is our daughter, Melia. Which would make her your little sister, Trucy!"
Two days ago I would have been thrilled to have a brother or sister. Two days ago I would have been jumping up and down with joy, planning out a routine so she could be my charming assistant. Now, though, all I could see was the video from the Jurist system, my Uncle Valant telling me that he'd framed my other daddy so he could get the tricks.
I turned and ran out of the room before I could say something stupid in front of everyone. I didn't go far, just to my room, where I could look at my picture of Troupe Gramarye and wonder if they'd ever really been as happy as they looked in that picture.
Daddy stuck his head around the door. "Trucy?"
"What?" I realized I was crying. I hated people to see me crying, even my Daddy. Especially my Daddy. I had to be strong for him, because who else was going to keep things together around here?
"Trucy, what's the matter?"
I could have tried lying to him, could have tried telling him everything was fine, but he could see through people if they tried to lie. "Did you think I wouldn't find out?" I snapped at him instead.
"Trucy, I didn't know Maya and I had a child until just now."
"Not about that - about my other daddy, and Uncle Valant."
"What about them?"
"About how they fought and ruined everything. How can I have a sister when all we'll do is fight and ruin everything?"
Daddy blinked, and then he came in and sat next to me on the bed, peeking at the picture I held. "Do you remember me telling you about Mia?"
"Yes."
"She was Maya's big sister."
"That's different. They're spirit mediums, the Feys, so they have to be in cosmic harmony or something, and get forbidden from fighting."
"Objection." He said it soft and gentle, which was weird after hearing the word so many times in Polly's Chords of Steel. "Actually, two of them. First, even if they did need to be in cosmic harmony, you're forgetting that your new little sister is a Fey."
Oh. That was right, she was. "But I'm still a Gramarye, and it's Gramaryes that were fighting."
"Which brings me to my second objection, because the Feys are not a universally harmonious family. Mia's mother and aunt fought bitterly about the title of Kurain Master, and when Mia saw this she decided that she was not going to fight with her little sister that way, and so she became a lawyer instead of Kurain Master and they got to be really close."
"So you think I can break the Gramarye curse, then?"
Daddy chuckled. "I think you can do just about anything you want to, Trucy." Then he got serious. "You'll always be my first daughter, Trucy. But I do have a responsibility to Melia now."
That made me laugh. "Daddy, you can't be responsible for an ant farm," I told him. "Which means that I'm responsible for Melia. I can clear off some floor for a sleeping bag for now, and it'll be like a camp-out, but she's going to need her own bed. She can share my room, she's my sister after all. And she's going to need some good assistant's clothes... except maybe that robe would work, we could do a spirit-channeling and magic doube act. And I've got to give her the tour - come on, Daddy, we can't just stay up here all day being rude to your guests. I bet they're hungry; we should take them out to Mr. Eldoon's noodle stand."
Daddy chuckled as he followed me out of the room and back to the rest of his - no, our - family. I let myself have a bit of extra bounce in my step. I was a big sister, and I was going to be the bestest big sister ever!
