[Pearl was already flustered, but to have a mirror image of herself taunting her wasn't exactly helping her situation. She huffs, clenching her fist.]

What do you know! You're just a projection...an illusion. This is some kind of trick.

[She starts feeling around the mirror for some kind of clue to how it works. It has to be a projection of some kind -- they recorded her voice and are manipulating the image somehow and Pearl will figure it out. Of course, as she tries this the reflection is just laughing at her, leaning against the side of the mirror for support as she does so.]

"Oh please. You aren't going to figure it out THAT way!"

[The real Pearl scowls and is tempted to just smash the mirror or screen or whatever it is. But then she hears another voice and her name being called out. She straightens up, looking over her shoulder, though it's hard to tell in this maze where the sound is coming from.

She whispers.] Steven?

[She calls out, louder this time.]

Steven?! Is that you?

((ooc: I have a link in Pearl's journal that goes to my HMD. So as I said in Plurk, after we've threaded for a bit I'd appreciate feedback <3))
