"He can totally get a concert too, Cáno loves showing off."

"Cool, cool. Where's the shiny rock?"

Cam indicates the map.

"Ah-huh, and where are we?"

"Central Canada."

"And what's the rock look like?"

"It's the shiniest of shiny rocks, if you see a rock and it looks like there could theoretically exist a shinier rock that's not it."

...he giggles.

"Yeah, 'kay," says Miler. "Just bring it back here?"

"Maybe take a weird route and drop it here without stopping. If you don't want anything bulky we could pay you in advance, dismiss you while you're laying false trail over Antarctica."

"You know I hate the cold."

"Japan. Whatever."

"Deal?"

Permalink

"Deal," says Miler.

"Gimme a list, I'll go fill it for you while you are being serenaded."

Miler rattles off some things and Cam writes them down.

And then he will sing.

Miler is absolutely enchanted; his wings flutter softly at the nicest passages. Cam is back with a cartful of objects after a short while.

Permalink

Handy, that demon Cam knows. He finishes singing.

"Pleasure doing business with you," says Miler, and he scoops up all the objects and takes the map and zooms out the window.

Permalink

Elves wait nervously.

Miler is gone for twenty minutes, and then the Silmaril comes careening unaccompanied through the window and hits Cam in the face. He says "ow", but presumably for impact reasons, it doesn't sizzle. "All right, get him gone, I suppose."

Permalink

It presumably doesn't sizzle because Cam's not evil. He sends the fairy home.

"And there you have it. No stabbed Danes. I feel even more smug than I usually do."

Permalink

"That was very fast."

Permalink

"Fairies! They're fast!"

Permalink

"Do you want, like, a hug, because fuck it is nice to not be terrified of what could happen -"

Permalink

"I will accept a hug!"

Permalink

Hug! He's very strong. "Best demon. Okay. Let's get the one on Venus before someone else does."

Permalink

"That doesn't imply much time frame, even with daeva Venus is way less appealing than Mars."

Permalink

"Unless someone wants a shiny and goes looking. Also the odds of this one being dug up specifically right now are - very low, it's weird -"

Permalink

"Were they using daeva in some way that would've made the area accessible where it wasn't previously or anything?"

Permalink

"Worth checking."

Circles in Danish last month -

There are lots. They start investigating.
