"If it's not even their fault they're a military dictatorship I feel bad about confusing them."

"It's mostly their fault they're a military dictatorship, it's our fault they did not dissolve into several disconnected territories controlled by warlords," says Doctor Mother.

"That sounds worse."

"Seems to be, yes."

"I still want to put Sāo Paulo back if I can."

"If you don't manage to convince them you might just have to make it appear without permission," Oliver (unhelmeted) muses.

...giggle. "I could do that."

"They might forbid their citizens from going into the city."

"Can you tell them to not do that?"

"Not for something so big. They're not as far as a puppet government, our influence is subtler," explains Doctor Mother. "If a way to verify it does not have anything undesirable like weapons and cameras was devised, however..."

"I can swear to things but that might take some explaining."

"It would, yes."

"What're you going to explain about Behemoth and the new one being definitely gone for good?"

"The first one we'll say happened because someone found the Master controlling Behemoth, and the second we'll say Eidolon fought them and they both died."

"- okay. If Eidolon doesn't mind looking for Warp for weeks on end for me he'd be a perfectly good investment in an eidetic memory necklace."

"That's actually a very good idea."

Bounce. 

"Are you the only one who can make necklaces?"

"Anyone with osanwë can do it and some other kinds of telepathy-ish magic interact well."

She nods. "What are you planning to do now, then?"

" - make more things for the Elves to read, maybe try worlds for another hour in case that gets me anywhere and if it doesn't and you have a list of demon things do the demon things, make a artifact so I can give someone else the teleport and they can do worlds until they find the peal, then maybe make more artifacts or do more demon things or, I don't know, take a break, this has been awfully eventful."

"Should we do anything about your unconscious body in Brazil?"

"It's not my body it's just a body that looks like me. If there's a good way to not have Brazil mad at me I should probably do that."

"...Contessa would probably be able to find a way. We owe you that much, I think."

"Thank you." Bounce bounce.
