"Haha, I told you my plan would work." Jinx said as he kissed Rachel on the cheek. Jinx sticks out her tongue, amusedly looking at her sister. She wanted to tease this girl because her reactions were too amusing for her to resist. Rachel sighed, crossed her arms, and turned away.
"I guess your plan wasn't a total flop."
"Pff-Hahahaha! It's okay, my love; I know I'm brilliant, no one could possibly compare to it!"
Rachel sighed, letting her twin do whatever she wanted. She also liked the pampering, so she wasn't about to stop her sister. She looked around and realized they were in an alleyway, and at the back of it was a small tree with a set of wooden doors in the tree, which Rachel assumed was the dungeon entrance.
Rachel's gaze shifted to the other end of the ally, where she noticed a few people passing by. She hummed and looked at Jinx, who was hugging her from behind. Jinx frequently acted like a child, but only around Rachel. Rachel always found this side of her sister cute. Seeing the cold and disdainful girl she's known her entire life act all cute and clingy, akin to a child.
"S-Shi, we have to leave." Rachel stated trying to escape from Jinx's grasp, but it was futile. The strength gap between them may not of been all that big, but it was enough for Jinx to hold down Rachel without much difficulty. Jinx wrapped her arms around Rachel's stomach and kissed her neck.
"Just a moment." Rachel had trouble hearing Jinx because her voice was barely above a whisper. "Doll, what kind of house do you want to live in?"
"Are you serious, n-now?"
"Please respond to the question."
"U-Uhm, a huge tower with dozens of floors. I'd like for our room to be at the very top, with a massive skylight. With a kind-sized bed in the middle of a huge flower bed."
"As you wish, my love."
Despite Rachel half-joking, Jinx was still going to make that wish a reality. That's all Jinx ever wanted to do: make Rachel's wishes come true. If Rachel wanted someone killed, Jinx would kill them; if she wanted marriage, Jinx would make a ring; and if she wanted a tower that reached far beyond the clouds, Jinx would build it with her own hands.

Jinx and Rachel were walking through the streets of wherever they were. They had no idea, but Jinx made sure to keep an eye out for any landmarks she remembered from Earth, as this place was technically a replica of Earth in some ways.
Rachel was following Jinx around while she was looking around and buying a lot of things. Fortunately, they could sell items in the system for money, but they couldn't buy anything. That would make things much easier for them, so it was understandable.
Jinx let Rachel do whatever she wanted. It was entertaining to watch her sister run around the store, mostly buying food. Jinx sighed as she came to a stop around a corner, grunting at her stupidity for a split second.

"I'm such a bloody moron." Jinx sighed and looked over at Rachel, who was eating a sandwich next to her. 'At least Doll didn't have to see my stupidity; after how I acted before, she wouldn't let it go for a while. I can't imagine how hard she'd laugh.'
Jinx sighed again and tapped Rachel on the shoulder, drawing her attention.
"Did you spend the entire budget, Doll?" Jinx inquired, despite the fact that he was well aware of the answer. She has known Rachel, literally all of her life, she knows how the girl behaves. Giving her money would be a complete disaster.
Rachel froze and looked through the inventory. She had indeed spent every last penny. Only an hour has passed! Jinx didn't want to see what she bought that squandered all of their money in a matter of an hour. Jinx was astounded that this girl could spend money so quickly.
"I-Uhm. Please wait a moment!" Rachel frantically ran away from Jinx. She ran into someone and had to stop and apologize before continuing on her way.
Jinx stood there, her mouth closed, trying not to laugh. That was, indeed, her sister. Jinx had long accepted Rachel's clumsy nature. Furthermore, why would she want to change Rachel? The girl was bloody adorable 24 hours a day.
Rachel returned after about ten minutes. Jinx sat on a bench, eating an apple. Nobody knows where she got it from. Did she steal it? Almost certainly.
"Hello, Doll. You are back rather quickly."
"H-Hi." Rachel sat next to her, panting. Rachel held hands knees, her gaze fixed on the ground. Sweat covering her face and dripped from her chin onto the ground. She appeared to have just finished a marathon, which she most likely had. "I-I got the m-moneys, and lots of it too."
Jinx chuckled and handed her the apple, as well as a tower she had mysteriously acquired, not stollen. Rachel happily took the apple and wiped the sweat from his brow. Jinx's blue eyes shifted to Rachel. Her hands moved on their on their own and clasped Rachel's cheek.
"Would you like to go look for a place to stay, Doll?" Jinx said as she lowered her hand. She wasn't sure what type of place they should look forward . She wanted them to live in a cozy arrangement until she could build the tower, which would take a long time and a lot of resources. It can be done, just not right now.
"Yes, yes! But how will we make more money in the future? Are we simply going to steal?" Rachel inquired about the apple Jinx had given her.
Jinx just sat there shaking her. "There are dungeons for a reason, doll."
"Oh, yeah. Let's go!" Rachel, like Jinx, disliked being labeled as stupid, even if it was a minor blunder. You could call her almost anything and she just wouldn't care, but if you called her stupid, she would get irritated.

After visiting a few places, they found that they were all very nice in fact. Rachel and Jinx, on the other hand, are looking for a smaller space with a nice new view that isn't too small. It's just the two of them, so they're not looking for a damned mansion, at least not yet. Jinx decided to get them some important things while they were looking for a place.
Mostly clothes, food, and other necessities. Also, some books for both of them to write in and read; Jinx, like Rachel, expects to write a lot of what she learns.
Night had finally arrived after a long wait. Jinx and Rachel were checking out the last appointment when the sky darkened. So far, it appears to be going well. It wasn't too big and had plenty of room for them; it was on the top floor and had a view of the Ottawa River. They were also given full access to the roof.
Jinx was staring out the window while Rachel spoke with the landlady. She was a shrewd woman who was also greedy. Rachel quickly folded when she heard they could pay in cash. Jinx didn't want to talk to the woman because she irritated her. They were well aware that she was charging extra, but they were too exhausted to bother.
They could get away with murdering her, but they didn't want to deal with anything right now. After a while, the lady finally left, handing them the key. Jinx made a metal note to get them IDs later; after all, it would make some things easier.
"Do you want to go get some furniture, Shi? We need a bed, and I know you've always wanted to try your hand at forging." Jinx was standing to the left when Rachel approached him.
"Of course, but we'll do that tomorrow." Jinx turned to face her and smiled. "It's time to sleep, Doll. We don't have a bed, but we do have some covers."
"That's fine! Can I have some cuddles?" Jinx snickered as Rachel asked happily.
"Of course."
