They're still alive as far as she knows, they just didn't keep her. And she doesn't want to talk about it.

Permalink

"Wow, touchy," says the peryton.

Permalink

She shrugs: It's really not a happy story. And it doesn't matter now, anyway. She got her magic and got away and Julie and Winona were great.

Permalink

"You got adopted by gays?"

Permalink

- yeah, is that not a thing here?

Permalink

"It's legal, that doesn't make it normal," the peryton says.

Permalink

Huh. It's pretty normal where she's from.

Permalink

"It's not normal anywhere, even if it's common as dirt."

Permalink

She sends to Paul: Excuse me, this person is being kind of a jerk.

The peryton just gets a look.

Permalink

Paul looks up from where he's helping a griffin woman use his jigsaw. He turns off the jigsaw; she says "Hey!" but he comes over. "What's going on?" he asks.

Permalink

It came up that she was adopted by a gay couple and he was very rude about it. She bounces the relevant memories.

Permalink

"Well... y'know, 'normal' can mean different things," says Paul. "Vaughn, why don't you come over here and help Carly -" He ushers the peryton over to another person.

Permalink

Ugh.

Permalink

Winged lion shrugs awkwardly.

Permalink

Anyway. She got her magic and got adopted and things were pretty great and then a cryptid ate her and now she's here.

Permalink

"Mhm," says the winged lion, but he doesn't seem to want to talk to her anymore.

Permalink

That's fine. She'll go, then.

Permalink

"Later," calls Paul over his shoulder.

Permalink

Yeah, maybe.

May'll probably be by before the next thing.

Permalink

She is. May drops by Friday afternoon with more cash.

"I have a diagram draft and I'm gonna wait for my French teacher to email me back about some words I need for my incantation," she says.

Permalink

Awesome.

Permalink

"I want to make it pretty big, so I'm gonna have to put it in the street in chalk or something, and then rinse it away later."

Permalink

Dusk nods. In here, or is she going to have to figure out how to get out of the Avalon?

Permalink

"Getting you out is easy, I can just turn you invisible. I can do it inside but then it's weirder if part of a street is wet."

Permalink

- right, yeah. Cool. So just a couple days, then? Very exciting.
