They're in a bungalow outside a smallish town on a planet full of otherworldly science fantasy humans, commuting in occasionally to use the science ethernet in a public science ethernet café. They managed to sell some unreplicable gemstones for local currency for the few things that cost money (the money seems a way to charge for convenience and immediacy and not having to produce evidence of Federation citizenship or guest status and luxury, for a value of "luxury" that is in some ways above that of Valinor) but the café is free and doesn't want to know who they are.

When they're done for the day Bella scoops up Fëanáro and tries to let them out of the little booth where they've been doing their science ethernet browsing.

This is not the café hallway. This is a bar. Sitting at it is a Quendi man next to a teetering five foot tall stack of napkins.

"Looks like you and apparently became powerful enough to fight the Valar and then decided not to. So at least some common personality."

"Yes, there is definitely that."

Permalink

"Planning to ask her how she did it?"

Permalink

"If I get to meet her, yes. She's not reachable right now; I'd give them the earwire to call her but it could be on purpose."

Permalink

"She might be tired of Fëanáro's double, he seems a bit tiring."

Permalink

"That is possible but probably not the whole reason?"

Permalink

"How's our Fëanáro doing?"

Permalink

"He has learned a lot of engineering and seems all set to learn some more."

Permalink

Sigh. "And not any mass murder, I hope."

Permalink

"Has not been part of the curriculum."

Permalink

"Have fun."

Permalink

"I will. We're going to meet his children, he has seven. Don't know yet who their mom wound up being."

Permalink

"... Good for him. I think. Have a lovely time."

Permalink

"I'll call again if we're not going to be back in a day or so."

Permalink

"Okay."

Both Fëanáros are watching her impatiently 

Permalink

End of call. "All done."

"Great, I can get him to a library," says the older Fëanáro, "and you can come see our new world. It's beautiful."

Permalink

"He might want to steal your library."

Permalink

"I can get you a copy of all the books," he says, "galactics have very fast book copying."

 

"I wouldn't steal your books," Fëanáro says.

 

"You should, if I wouldn't give them to you!"

Bella giggles.

The city is astonishingly pretty, and bigger than Tirion - "we had three hundred Years for the population to grow," Fëanáro says, and at its center is a university rather than a palace.

"Is father the King?"

"Technically," he says dismissively. "Our son is in charge."

Permalink

Huh.

Permalink

"Why?"

"I don't really know," he says, "he likes it and it makes him happy. And he's good at it, not that that's hard."

Permalink

...really now.

"Are our kids smart?"

"They are! Smart and ambitious and brave."

"All of them?"

"Every one."
