What you want the default to be - whether it moves you or them and where to - and then if you want it to do different things in different places, what and where.

Them, and just back away from me by a foot, if that's possible.

It isn't - specific places only, not relative to anything. I can have it send them to a specific spot in each room? That's a little more complicated but not too bad, if I do it at the same time as the paths.

That'd be better - otherwise it's a really serious inconvenience for someone who probably just brushed against me by accident -

They'd learn not to, but yeah, fair. All right.

Thank you. Sorry for adding extra work.

Not a problem. She sends a little burst of affection along with it.

He smiles vaguely. I'll get better.

Mmhmm. In your own time.

Findekáno's expecting me back, but I can stop in for a little bit first if you want, fix the fire properly and get their bowl from last night to bring back and stuff.

Whatever's convenient. How is he?

Busy with the new place, mostly - holding up well, all things considered; pushing themselves, but not too hard. Coming along pretty well on the magic, too, they came up with a new light effect I can show you.

I'd like that.

Okay. Amusement, affection. I'll come by, then. And a moment later, there she is.

Hey.

Hey. She's still grinning. She's given him a bit more space than usual, and sits with her hands in her lap before trancing, covering a flattish section of the wall with Findekáno's rippling water effect in blue and green and white.

Pretty.

Yeah. Want me to leave it?

Sure, thanks.

No problem.

She goes to fix the fire, being careful not to make any sudden movements and trying not to make it too obvious that she's doing so.

You sure you're okay?

Mmhmm. She focuses on the fire for a few moments. I'm not very sure what you need, right now; it feels better to be more careful even if it's not actually needed. I know I'm probably being a little silly.

I'll be okay.

Mmhmm, I know. She glances up at him and sighs. This really isn't helping, though, huh. Okay. She takes a deep breath, and her body language changes - the carefulness is still there, lurking in the background, but overall it's much more normal.

Thanks. It's really just that what I'm used to is good, anything else feels like a glitch in the hallucination -

All right. She finishes fussing with the fire and goes to check on the water basin.
