Sue wakes up.

He yawns and snuggles into his blanket and looks over at Aegis.

"...Hey, where'd she go?"

"...You remember her too? I thought I just had a weird dream," Aegis says.

"No... whoa," he says, blinking.

A flicker of golden light, and there's a viscacha in his lap.

"Boo!" says Ivy.

Aegis doesn't have a body-language startle reaction, but her exo doesn't web over her face. "Eep!"

"I guess I went back in his head while we were all sleeping," shrugs Ivy. "I can do that, look!"

Golden light—no viscacha.

"But she's still here," says Sue, gesturing at his head. "I just didn't really notice—it's kind of like I'm linking her all the time, and she's still pretty much me."

"That's really strange," Aegis says. "But I guess it'll make her much easier to hide."

Ivy reappears as a tiny fennec fox just long enough to say, "Yep," and giggle.

Permalink

"So she can go in and out whenever she wants?"

Permalink

"She can now," he says. "She couldn't before, because she didn't know she existed."

Permalink

"...That must be weird, not knowing that one exists," remarks Aegis.

Permalink

"We thought she was just part of me," he explains. "Well, she is, but—differently than we thought."

"Straaaange," says Aegis. "...So you actually went to a weird bar with magic in it and actually went home with a one and a half of me and a one and a half of you and got an Ivy who can be in or out, that's - yeah, I think that's even weirder than the FTL communications and the fact that we're actually invading the bugger worlds."

Sue grins proudly.
