Yeah, like... I conciously kept my new AIM name from her and I hardly EVER do that, so I wasn't sure why I'd do it to her of all people. (Another friend gave me away in the end, though, haha. XD;) I think it was that instinctual avoidance that made me realize my creeping suspicions in the first place, though I think the the two big breakthroughs were that Cid tattoo picture she claimed her friend had drawn for her and that photo of what looked to be my friend's stolen laptop. Like. That last one really jarred me, I remember, and made me go "Hold on one fucking second. ...Could that be possible?"

And it was, apparently. D:
