"They're endemic to Aluvanna, which is the interior part of Suranse. If it's convenient for you to send us home with computers, by all means feel free."

Loki pulls out her own computer and sends Cam a message.

And here he is! "...you are some novel sort of human so we should do your brain surgery in Aurum just to be sure."

"Brain surgery! Exciting!"

"Sure, all right."

"It's very unexciting as brain surgery goes," cautions Cam, but hop hop here's Aurum, and he writes Alice a note.

"It's conceptually entertaining whether or not the brain surgery itself is exciting as such. Nice wings."

"Thanks. I had them before too but now they're upgraded." Wag.

"It's a little rude to ask someone what they did but I keep being tempted, and you're all from different cultural contexts anyway..."

"Is it rude? Well, I don't mind, I rolled out summoning daeva to my home world and thereby ended material scarcity."

"Congratulations!"

"Specifically it's a little presumptuous," Ashras explains, "it's the sort of thing you don't ask someone unless you know them pretty well or they bring it up first. Anyway, what's this about brain surgery?"

"State of the art computers are controlled by thought. Also means I can't read your stuff, if you lock it. And this involves a little chip in your brain."

"How tidy. All right then."

"The precog says nothing awful happens to you if I give you chips, congratulations, you have anatomically human brains at least in the relevant areas. Any questions before I emplace chips?"

"Are these things straightforward to use or are we going to have to spend time learning how to think at them correctly?"

"You will have to spend about ten minutes training your computers to respond to being thought at in a you-friendly manner."

"That's reasonable. Okay."

And Cam chips them and hands out computers.

"Thank you very much," says Inlaith.

The triplets spend ten minutes figuring out their computers.

"No problem. Questions, comments, do you need a ride out of the universe?"

"I have a teleportation soul power, but thank you for offering. It was very nice to meet you, and Loki too, and we had probably better go home and reassure our parents that we haven't been eaten by wild animals."

"Sure. And if you ask Bells in general what gets us our wings we will take it as an excuse to brag, FYI."

"That's a good thing, right?"

"I strongly suspect that it is," says Ashras.
