"What is it though?"

"...Possibly a mammal?" says Sue. "And they look like that. And they're cool. And they're called pangolins. That's pretty much what I know."

Permalink

"They're a mammal, sort of like armadillos with the armor," says Elspeth, "and that kind is a long-tailed pangolin and it lives in Africa. At least on Earth; I don't know about your world."

"Is getting animals you've never heard of common?"

Permalink

"Beats me," shrugs Sue. "Jokers don't settle."

Permalink

"Fair enough. Well, I don't particularly want a long-tailed pangolin on its own merits, but if Emily can't door, or I can't rely on dooring pausing the world, I might get one just for the aura split, I s'pose."

"How much do we actually care if Materia goes on without you when you're out?" wonders Celo. "Actually, if I'm there and my field's in Chronicle that'll probably keep us pinned down anyway, so the question is how much we care if Materia goes on without both of us."

"My parents probably care if Materia goes on without us while I'm out. See also: 'plan to maybe stay in school' - especially if my alts are going to keep operating under the assumption that I'm a therapist. We'll both be out when it comes time for Bell parties, unless you want to miss all the associated carousing."

"I am a pretty big fan of carousing," laughs Celo. "Well, we'll see, I guess."

Permalink

"Yeah. Best case scenario, I bring Glass home while she clings desperately to my arm, she tells me Milliways logic is not subject to Materia unlogic and the pausing will behave itself, and Emily says she can door whenever she would like to door. Less good case scenario, I bring home a pangolin, find an out-of-the-way extraplanar corner to tuck it in, and build a Janepoint there."

Celo shrugs.

"You know what," he says, "I think I'll see if I can visit the rest of the Jokers. Anybody got a list?"

Elspeth sends him a list.

"Cool," says Celo, and disappears.

"He found Beast," Sue reports, grinning.

Aether sends an approximation of applause through the link. She doesn't push anything automatically - Bells never do - but she's more comfortable with playing with the extended features of the thing than anybell save Aegis.

Celo sends a giggle and some love.

"Awww," says Sue, smiling.

Aether laughs.

"You're cute," says Sue.

"Cute," Harley agrees.
Permalink

"Why thank you."

Permalink

Harley hugs her.

Permalink

Hugs.

Permalink
Hugs!

Sue giggles. Let us not speculate on why.
Permalink

Aether speculates, but doesn't get anywhere.

"You wanna try going somewhere?" says Sue to Harley.

Harley thinks about it. He nods. He flickers out.

Sue grins. "Aww, he went to the cute cave again," he says, and shares what Harley is sending him - he's snuggling a foxball.

"It's a very cute cave."

"It is!" says Sue. "I love it."
