Isibel squirms.

"You are making faces."
Permalink

"They are happy faces," he says. "Do you not like them?"

Permalink

"I do like them," blushes Isibel.

Permalink

Her demon hugs her. "That is good. I am glad that you like them."

Permalink
Isibel hugs him.

She lets him have just a little peep at the way in which she likes them.
Permalink

In that case, perhaps she would like a little peep at the way her beloveds like enchanneling.

Permalink
She looks.

She squirms.
Permalink

He grins.

Permalink
"I - I don't know if -"

But then she does know if. She knows exactly if. She knows that.

"Oh," she murmurs, and she shows him, soul-sympathy pointing with blinding obviousness: there, this one, this is forever. She is really not clear on how she missed it. Supposedly it can hide until it is too late to avoid; she doesn't know if that or the immediate circumstances or her own slow healing were operative, but now it is there, now it is clear.

...

He wraps her up in a many-limbed hug, arms and wings and tail.
Permalink

Hugs. Hugs and love.

Permalink

Hugs and love.

Permalink

Isibel loves him and loves how he loves her.

Permalink
That is good!

"Does this mean—" the demon murmurs, and he reminds her of some of the things he said to her when they first met. The ones Magania refused to translate.
Permalink
Isibel blushes very dark at that.

"Maybe."

It would be unkind to leave it at that word with no explanation. She broadcasts a little: while she has never exactly envisioned herself a lifelong Unicorn Knight, one of the first things to shrivel up when she was breaking was any impulse to render herself unfit for unicorn company. It has not, till now, been a priority for rebuilding, because she was waiting for soul-sympathy, and - now she has it.
Permalink
She does has soul-sympathy. And she has it with her demon. Her demon who is touching her.

It occurs to him - and he broadcasts, by way of asking - that the spell for finding out what sorts of things are good for someone to eat could, with a little work, be adapted to find out... other things. If she liked. Perhaps she would rather find out those things about herself the long way around.
Permalink

...Isibel does not see much reason to prefer the long way around.

Permalink

So he kisses the top of her head and hugs her and sends his magic through her body to learn of its functions.

Permalink

It has some! She is a physically healthy adult elf.

Permalink
And now he knows - not in words, not in a way made for explaining, but in a way made for doing - what sorts of things are good for it in a new context.

He shares this knowledge with Isibel. It's her body, after all.
Permalink
Isibel squirms some more and collects all the information. For reference.

One of the things that she could probably have predicted all by herself is that she will like it if she kisses her beloved. So she does.
Permalink

Her beloved kisses back. In a way she will like. And he is careful of his fangs.

Permalink
Isibel melts into him. She does indeed like.

Liselen will even still be able to visit.
Permalink

Although perhaps Isibel should not go among unmodified unicorns in the future. Even if they stopped right now - well. It's a matter of knowledge as much as anything.

Permalink
Isibel will be considerate of unicorn neighbors.

Later. When she is thinking about them again. She has stopped for the time being; she is thinking about her beloved instead.
