I'll put out an ask.

Permalink

I'll go boop Olórin.

Permalink

If you don't need to cast spells right now it might be useful to find out if you go back to recharging normally.

Permalink

But then I'll have to sleep! Again!

Permalink

It's true. Someone else can experiment with it if you don't want to.

Permalink

I guess I don't immediately need it for anything.

Permalink

Lemme know what you find out.

It's a week before he sleeps; he can't do even a cantrip until then, and eventually this distresses him enough he asks Boots to make him sleep and then when he wakes up is fine.

 

He goes back to Hell and walks around with his new wings.

Boots finishes the crystal ball based mail system and installs it throughout the interestingly-inhabited multiverse.

Demons continue to mostly ignore Epic on account of believing him to be a demon.

Permalink

Epic continues to be delighted about this. He flies around and explores more of Hell and waits to hear about the go-ahead on the letting daeva who really want kids raise kids.

Permalink

With Boots' new convenient mail system this doesn't take long. Sure, they're willing to try it, it doesn't seem much more of an infosec hazard than summoning to Space at all: they're pretending really hard that the reasons Space Elves can be resurrected and forked is the Silmarils, and that looks sustainable at least in the medium term, and the average person on Space has been told about the multiverse as the discovery of new planets in their own universe.

So Fëanáro can go around finding demons who want kids. This is a substantial enough project that if he wants to cover for not being able to make stuff Cam can be spared to go along and say "I found this kid, does anybody want a kid" and make things as necessary.

Permalink

Eeeeeeeeee he will be able to better pretend to be a demon!!!

Permalink

Yup, nothing like objects appearing conveniently around you for demonic pretense. Cam turns up to provide escort.

Permalink

Thank you!

Permalink

You're welcome. So my spiel here is that I am very socially responsible and don't like the idea of unsupervised kids but I can't just adopt you myself because I'm on summons all the time. If you want to look like you're making something osanwë me it, nobody'll suspect a thing.

Permalink

Bounce bounce. Okay.

 

And off! Through the city! He looks approximately six and very in need of supervision!

Permalink

And Cam asks various demons if they know anyone who wants a kid - nice people, please, not random creeps - and gets referred to four locals and one person's out of town friend, who they can then proceed to interview.

Permalink

Yay! (Can he read peoples' minds while interviewing, just a tiny bit, to make sure they're not secretly horrible)?

Permalink

It seems less invasive to do that when they've been summoned; we can have another interview step there and ask them if they're okay with it.

Permalink

This seems reasonable. HI, local demons who might want a child! I am a child!

Permalink

Local demons who want a child think he is adorable! A couple of them are up enough on the news to recognize that he is an Elf child (although they assume Space Elf) and not a human one; these ones wonder why, since Space inhabitants know how ex-summoners work, his actual parents have not just summoned him back?

Permalink

"I don't know! I didn't think I even died but I told someone I hadn't died and they said yes I had. Maybe my mom and dad died too but if they did I don't think they are demons, I wrote them a note about where I made my house."

Permalink

The demons accept this explanation. They are all trying to seem like nice adoptive parents and doing various amounts of a good job at it; some of them seem like they'd be nice for some kids but just not quite a good fit with Fëanáro in particular.

Permalink

Is this enough information to summon them to Space and tell them that Fëanáro's parents did figure out how to summon him back after a while but here is a kid who needs parenting, would they like a long-term summons?
