Yeah. Let's go ahead and tell them, they're unlikely to react in any spectacularly counterproductive way...

Yeah.

Go cry for an hour, random pro-life Elf.

It actually takes them two days to do anything but when they do they start lobbying for all Elf Earth-improving money to go into research into miscarriages and infant mortality.

Permalink

Their efforts will presumably be unsuccessful.

She will be delighted to coach them on ways of making money they can divert to that purpose.

How positive-sum.

 


It's a couple weeks later that Isabella manages lucid dreaming sharing; it falls into place quite neatly.

If she waits till just before bedtime some day Maitimë is going to sleep too - will this be a pleasant surprise -

Permalink

A surprise it is then.

"Hi."

Permalink

She doesn't figure it out at first. She blinks confusedly. "Hi - is something else on fire -"

Permalink

"...do you not remember falling asleep?"

Permalink

"I do, but here we are, so - oh! You got lucid dreaming."

Permalink

"I got shared lucid dreaming, I already had it for myself."

Permalink

"You are so magical and it's lovely."

Permalink

"Mm-hm." And now they are sitting on a cloud overlooking the Grand Canyon. "I don't have a way to let you operate any dream stuff besides yourself, but you will be able to wake up at will."

Permalink

Oh look eartips bright red again. "Okay. Wow, this is pretty, where -"

Permalink

"It's on Earth, it's called the Grand Canyon, I'm filling in some detail with dream fuzziness because I haven't really seen it from this angle."

Permalink

"My pleasure. Requests, long as I'm omnipotent?"

Permalink

Can her ears get any brighter red yes they can. "I don't know all the pretty places on Earth."

Permalink

"And I haven't seen most of them. It doesn't have to be sightseeing-related."

Permalink

"For non-sightseeing requests it'd defeat the point if I picked them."

Permalink

Oh, come on.  

"The Moon? The Moon sounds interesting."

Permalink

Here is the Moon, miraculously breathable and comfy to sit on. "This is not exactly why I picked up this skill, you know."
