conversations.value:  Papa shook his head sadly. “These children have a special disposition that doesn’t allow my voice to reach them… But even if they didn’t—” Papa put his hand to my cheek. “You’re the only one I need to hear me.”

conversations.prefix: Papa:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  Masterpiece. I couldn’t help but get hung up on that word. “Wasn’t Lilly your masterpiece, Papa?” What a terrible daughter I was to doubt Papa’s words.
conversations.prefix: Lana:

conversations.value:  And yet he smiled at this terrible daughter of his. “Lilly was a failed creation. You are far, far, greater than she ever was, Lana.”
conversations.prefix: Papa:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Really?” I was happy. No longer was I beneath Lilly. Papa only had eyes for me now. If I succeeded here, then surely… I gently brushed the headband on my head. This headband was precious to me, a gift from Papa. I couldn’t take it off or else I wouldn’t be able to hear Papa’s voice. “Who might you be talking to, Lana?”
conversations.prefix: Lana:

conversations.value:  “I’m talking to Papa, of course.”

conversations.value:  “Who’s ‘Papa’? It’s only the three of us here.”
conversations.prefix: Lana:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “What do you mean? Papa’s right here.” The twins looked back at me, confused. Poor things. It appeared they couldn’t perceive Papa. “Papa’s always here, right by my side. I hear him, only me, just me…”

conversations.value:  “Indeed. I’m certain Mother Rae and Mother Claire will figure out some way to help you.”
conversations.prefix: Aleah:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Shut up.” I didn’t want to hear it. The only thing I needed to hear was Papa’s voice. He was all I had, and a child who couldn’t do what their Papa said was abandoned. “Papa…it’ll only be a little longer. Watch me. I’ll do it… I’ll show you I can do it!” I was no longer an unwanted child. I was better than Lilly now. Papa said so. He said I was his favorite. So I had to show him that I was worthy of being his favorite. Then I heard footsteps approach the building.

conversations.prefix: Aleah:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “And I told you to shut up.” Their blind trust in their mothers irritated me to no end. Why, though? I wondered. Why does it irritate me?
conversations.prefix: Lana:

conversations.prefix: May:

conversations.prefix: Aleah:

conversations.value:  Krk. I heard something crack. But I ignored it. “Don’t be stupid. Who would be jea—”
