"...it's a magic." She is not sure how to explain magics, but she is thinking of them: little patches of chaos landscape, growing patches of feathers out of the soil and turning cats into flying whiptailed sailboats and full of random assortments of coins with the faces of clocks and bread with wings and particolored twists of wire and glass pillows and eggs that hatch into nutcrackers. Cathei was a teapot for some time but has turned back since.

Oh. Okay. We don't have those here. We have magic music, though, do you have magic music?

"...not in general but there's probably embroideries that do that..."

And she's sending an impression of what 'embroideries' means. He finishes braiding his hair and puts clothes on. Well. Hi, Rabka. You make three of you - Peka and my orf are the other two.

She blinks at Peka, who waves. "Three of me?"

His orf looks like this, Peka looks like this, Rabka looks like this. Kat and Katin and Cathei like so.

Huh. Okay. That's strange. Especially if they can't even have walked into magics. His orf, what's an orf. Is Rabka his now? He is probably better than the last guy.

I would be delighted to collect you all but Peka's fanfic sites would disapprove so non-collecting arrangements are also available.

Rabka has less than no idea what a fanfic site is but she's a slave. Well, a runaway slave, but not over the slavery part.

Oh, well, we don't have slavery, so now you're not a slave, congratulations.

"Thanks!" She starts fiddling with Cathei's earring.

He vaguely wishes that more problems could be solved like that. Of course!

She takes out Cathei's earring. She stomps on it. She takes out hers too and stomps on that also.

That is a reasonable thing to do if one was a slave.

She is not sure what he means by collecting people if he doesn't care to own any but whatever.

They stay in my city and do concerts with me and the guards make sure the Enemy can't use them.

The Enemy?

Very bad. So bad. North of here. 

Gosh, okay. Uh, concerts sound fun!

They could all three do concerts together, it'd be cute.

Sure!

Someone comes with a wagon. He looks confused. Macalaurë shrugs helplessly and lifts girls into wagon.

Wow he's really strong.

My species is stronger than humans. He lifts Peka and puts an arm around her and says privately. Sorry. Not that I did the thing but still.

Are you gonna be able to keep up with so many of us?
