"Yue."

"...doesn't that just mean Moon in Chinese?"

Permalink

"I actually don't know any Chinese."

Permalink

Tap, tap. "Yep."

Permalink

"Was Clow just very bad at names?"

Permalink

Shrug.

Permalink

"Anyway, I guess we could try to build a spell that specifically looks for Yue."

Permalink

"Yeah," agrees Tyler. Tap tap. "Does 'yang' mean anything to you, Cerberus?"

Permalink

"I think it means sun?"

Permalink

"It's kinda weird that Yue has a Chinese name and you have a – what, Latin name? I guess it makes sense with joining Western and Eastern culture, but I'd expect you to be Sol or something."

Permalink

"Maybe Clow had a stroke of inspiration for Cerberus but got stuck on Yue?"

Permalink

"What does Yue usually look like?"

Permalink

"His true form is a tall human with long white hair and wings."

Permalink

"Does he assume other forms at all frequently, like you're sometimes a bear?"

Permalink

"I don't... know what he'd look like, without his powers."

Permalink

Nod. "Well, hopefully we'll be able to find him."

Permalink

"We should first see whether we can build one that finds someone whose whereabouts we do know—like you, or Kero, or Willow—before trying to get Yue."

He starts scribbling.

Permalink

"Dash, Maze, Move, Return, Through, Time," says Tyler, "look like cards, or concepts, that could be useful."

Permalink

"—walk me through your reasoning, there."

Permalink

"Dash because movement, Maze because they might be hidden and mazes are conceptually linked, Move because movement and distance and such, Return because we want to be able to retrieve or at least find them, fits for Yue and Cerberus, Through because it might not be a direct path, might be able to cut through obstacles or something, unsure, Time because we could trace their path from a known location through time."

Permalink

"Okay, reasonable. Seems like both Sun and Moon are called for, then, and Wind..." He starts writing out a spell that could work.

Permalink

"Agreed."

Permalink

Eventually he has something. "Okay, maybe I should try this without any scrolls, just see if it works, yeah?"

Permalink

"Sounds sensible. We haven't had any side-effects from underpowered spells yet, as far as I know."

Permalink

"Yeah. First one for you." He casts the spell and—" Okay this is weird."
