[ The video turns on and shows Lydia Bennet grinning into the camera, shoulders high around her ears and turning from side to side. Lydia Martin sits beside her, not looking up and focusing on her phone, a sour expression on her face. ]
Sooo I've brought Lydia Martin here for a VERY important public service announcement. I know people keep getting us confused so we're here to tell you exactly how we're TOTES different kayyyy?
No one makes that mistake.[ Lydia Bennet side eyes, grimaces, and then turns back to the camera, and smiles sunnily as if nothing was said. ]
Okay, so the first, EASIEST difference is that I'm the fun Lydia, and she's the mean Lydia.
[ Lydia Martin tilts her head to the side, barely looking up from her phone, and murmurs an agreement. ]
However, we're BOTH redheads.
[ Lydia Martin glances up, and looks Lydia Bennet up and down, a judgmental expression on her face. ]
Technically, mine is strawberry blonde. And it's natural.[ Pointed stare from Lydia Martin. ]
Ooookay. So like, I have a super hot boyfriend, and Lydia's single.
Debatable.What that my boyfriend's not super hot??? Because he is. Or that you're not single? OH EM GEE DISH.
Both.You can't say mean things like that about my Vicksypoo, it'll hurt his feelings.
It's not mean, it's just a critical analysis of someone's attractiveness. I'm just saying he's not my type. And he's boring.[ Lydia Martin puts down her phone, and sighs. She's obviously run out of lives on Sweet Squash. ]
You forgot that I’m the smart Lydia.[ Lydia Bennet’s face falls, then brightens as she opens to say something— then stops. You can tell she's had one of those silent debates in her head, and then thought better of whatever she was going to say. ]
We’re both pretty fashionable, aren’t we.
[ Lydia Martin gives her a silent once over, and looks unimpressed. Lydia Bennet either doesn’t notice, or pretends not to care. ]
I’m in college and the other Lydia’s still in high school! And I’ve been a dragon! Multiple times! Lydia Martin’s just been crazy naked in the woods. Multiple times.
[ Lydia Martin’s eyes suddenly hyper focus on Lydia Bennet, rage on her face. ]
One time! I’ve been naked ONE TIME.[ Lydia Bennet giggles. ]
That’s not what
I heard—
[ Lydia Martin’s reaching for the phone as Lydia speaks, and the video feed is interrupted. ]
