"Makes sense." Pet pet snuggle.

first-and-final

Snuggle! Sparkly winged snuggle.

ertia

The wings are nice and cuddly!

first-and-final

They are. They are that. So cuddly and nice. The scales and the vampire-ness should theoretically make them less so, but Kithabel is omnipotent and Milan is no slouch and somehow it just doesn't manage to be a problem.

Anyway, though, they should emerge and go see if the unicorn is still around. Eventually. They should eventually do that.

ertia

Yup. Down they go. Wearing clothes and everything, look at them go.

first-and-final

The moment they emerge from the stairwell, the unicorn yells from his spot by the door:

"THE WILD MAGIC SAYS YOU SHOULD FIX THE THING WHERE UNICORNS ARE UNCOMFORTABLE AROUND PEOPLE WHO AREN'T VIRGINS"

Milan snorts.

ertia

Kithabel fixes the thing.

"I hadn't realized I was advertising any facts of that nature. You could have mentioned before it caused you discomfort and then we would all be much happier."

"I didn't know it was going to come up!" the unicorn exclaims.

ertia

"And I could not possibly have warned you unless I wanted to go around omnipotently absorbing unvolunteered facts from people around me, which I consider a really sketchy thing to do!"

"Well I'm sorry that you suddenly made me feel like my fur was turning into needles and if I could've made being around nonvirgins stop doing that years ago I definitely would have but here we are," says the unicorn. "Thank you for fixing the thing. The Wild Magic says you will have to fix it again once you're properly in my world because the door was closed this time. The people writing down the list of dead Bondmates finished and got impatient and closed the door so they wouldn't have to wait."

ertia

"Right then. I can just do that all in one go now, it'll ding Milan's variety if he does it."

first-and-final

"The Wild Magic has some suggestions for you both if you want to fix more things in its world," says the unicorn.

"We definitely do!" says Milan.

Suggestions ensue. Kithabel can resurrect Bondmates and take the unicorn (his name is Liselen) with her to a list of subsequent locations for major fixes like restoring the damaged ecosystem in one-third of a continent and demolishing an unwanted mountain. Milan can stay a little closer to home, remodel the cave system where the dragons live to accomodate the expanded population, tweak some large-scale weather patterns nearby, raise an island off the nearby coast to stave off future overcrowding issues, revive some extinct species of plant...

ertia

It's a fun and productive day!

first-and-final

Very fun and very productive!

And then Liselen thanks them and they return to Milliways. Perhaps they will celebrate their fun and productive day there.

ertia

Sounds like a plan.

first-and-final

Awesome.

ertia

It is, it is!

first-and-final

And Milan has outrageous sparkly wings. They are snuggly. And outrageous. Someday perhaps he will get over this fact but today is not that day.

ertia

Kithabel likes them too!

first-and-final

Oh good. It is good that Kithabel likes them.

At some point Milan finds the time to mention, "You know, you need it much less now that you're omnipotent, but are you going to turn into a vampire? It seems like it might help you wield your omnipotence more efficiently."

ertia

"It seems a little redundant, but I might as well try it and see if I like it, I suppose."
