"Angels could fix the cosmetics and probably leave the mind control immunity -" He checks.

There's stuff! Not that much stuff, and all Dwarves once they take a closer look.

"Dwarves get an afterlife in Mirror. Man, Dwarves get all the cool shit."

"Dwarves and only Dwarves? And we get Mandos? What a rip-off."

"Valar." Headshake.

"I know the implications are terrifying but I find it very reassuring, being resurrectable in whatever is my most recent untampered-with state no matter what's happened."

Nod nod.

"Being indestructible outright must be even nicer."

"I like it. I don't know how it extends to mind control though..."

"We could test if the songs work on you but this would have the unfortunate consequence that the songs might work on you."

"Yeah. It's... probably better to have a controlled test than walk in blind but yeah."

"I should ask my Findekáno to confirm with Mirror's Findekáno that the effect duration of magic songs is 'while they're being sung'."

"That'd limit the scope of horror if it turns out they work."

"Indeed. Though he seems to think there are other forms of mind control just in his world, and there are also other worlds - some of the powers in Rosalie's -"

"Yep. Reassuring but not a guarantee if I'm immune to the one thing."

"But worth knowing. ...could ask Edie to test it if it bothers you particularly, which I think it does."

"...it does, yeah."

"I'll suggest it to her."

"Thanks."

"There should be a blessing that writes your chip blank if you activate it."

"Does that have advantages over the suicide melters?"

"Trivial to fork someone without a suicide melter. Currently non-trivial to fork someone without a specific blessing, except by grabbing them before they installed it."

"I wouldn't expect that to remain non-trivial in the face of concerted effort, but true as far as it goes."

"And at least you'd have some warning that whoever forked you was hostile, to whatever limited extent that protects you..."

Nod.
