" - OK. Well. Sorry for - making totally reasonable assumptions about your linguistic capacities. And the extent to which you're, like, a pet and stuff."

Oh I'm totally a pet, don't sweat it. I'm just also fifteen hundred years old and an expert on all things magical or literary.

He conveys this, too.

"Oh. - how do you know what he's saying?"

Permalink

"Telepathy."

Permalink

"Oh. OK. Of course."

"I can keep translating if you want or we can get him a trackpad."

Permalink

"That sounds - good. If it's more convenient for you."

Permalink

" - which sounds good? Trackpad?"

Permalink

"Yeah, sorry, trackpad."

"Okay." He heads downstairs. "Wishbone, please make her eat if the time dilation means I take forever getting back."

Permalink

Duly noted!

He heads off downstairs to buy a dog communication device.

- and Azalea finally makes it up the stairs.

She frowns at him when she sees him.

Permalink

Yeah he'll just keep going down the stairs.

Permalink

Probably for the best. 

"Hey."

Permalink

- she has really prepared for this shockingly little given that she's known it was going to happen for almost three days.

She looks exactly like her. She doesn't know if she's really her but she looks exactly like her.

 

"I - "

- she should be saying something but she has no idea what she's supposed to say.

She hugs her sister. Not-sister. Whatever.

Permalink

She stays frozen for a bit, and then she sobs.

" - you died."

Permalink

"Yeah, well, so did you. I guess that makes us even. They working on getting your me back?"

Permalink

" - I dunno, I didn't ask, I don't - I don't even know if you're real. They could've - the people I work for, I mean, they can do basically anything, I just don't know why they'd bother with - this - "

"Meh, I'm not good at the reality check stuff. You seem real enough. Not - mine, quite, but real enough. Maybe I can, like, twenty percent forgive Alex for getting you killed. Your Connor OK?"

Permalink

Nodnodnod. At least if they know Connor exists she doesn't have to bother keeping this a secret. "Connor and Zana are fine. Or - they were fine when I left them."

Permalink

"I have no idea who that second person is."

Permalink

" - oh. She's, uh, your daughter."
