Science world! Bella says gleefully.

Science world!

Hopefully the Valar won't kick me out this time!

They never did anything about Idaia, even when she was in actual Valinor, she points out.

Yeah, well, I was in Valinor - earlier, when her father-in-law was a child, and not the same Valinor, apparently there's copies - and I was. Disruptive. And they kicked me back to my unscience world.

I'm sorry to hear that. Well, if they were going to intervene with people pulling shit, you'd think they'd have stopped the Holocaust.

I don't know what that is but if it didn't affect the peace and bliss of Valinor...

Well, you're not in Valinor right now, and you probably won't be 'till you're stronger than you are.

Yeah. I'm just a little paranoid because they didn't just banish me to the Outer Lands. I scared them, I think. These ones might ignore me until I can do more than scare them.

That's the spirit!

Mm-hm. Oh, also, it is possible that a tiny version of Idaia's father-in-law will come looking for me.

Awwww!

It will be very cute and might even be more cute than upsetting if he manages to aim for me and not my world, he will not get along with my world.

Yeah, Idaia's told me about this guy.

I might also be able to contact him before he attempts a rescue mission.

I am in favor of him not getting eaten by antiscience world.

Nod.

- It's actually pretty late in my subjective sleep cycle. I can try to stay up to adjust to here, but where am I going to sleep?

Oh, you can use my bed, I'll just spend the night with someone else. Also, unfortunately for you, it's early morning here.

...I'll nap and then coffee-thing myself into consciousness noonish?

Coffee-thing?

In addition to being a wizard I'm a subtle artist, that's how I'm talking to you. I can do a thing with that which is a little like coffee and at my university we all called it the coffee thing.

Sweet. Sounds like a plan, then.

Okay, cool. Thank you very much for the use of your bed.

You're welcome! Thanks for making Idaia less sad.

That's my job.

And she sets an alarm on her crystal ball and slips out of her boots and crashes.
