"Well, I guess it's lucky for me that the Osirian government is not very important to me."

And this is about when the extremely powerful teenager comes back with someone else and snaps and asks if anybody needs anything.

He still wants a house. Or sticks that can be used to build a house.

"I cannot directly provide you with a house right now. I could get you sticks, I guess? Can you actually build a house out of sticks?"

"I don't know if you have weird physics here but with normal physics I can build a house out of sticks."

" - okay. I can get you sticks. I don't know whether it'll work for building houses, but if it doesn't then my boyfriend's getting tents and I guess you can have one of those until we figure something else out."

Permalink

"Thank you."

Permalink

"Okay. Anybody else? We are working on food, it should be here soon."

Permalink

No one else indicates any pressing problems.

"Okay. This is, uh - I'll let you pick your own pseudonym. The person who we think is a version of your pharaoh."

"It's really impressive," he says to her. "Is it gonna have weather or anything?"

"I think not unless I do more to it. It's a little more than two weeks old. I expect I'll be able to give it more traits later on."

"Okay. I guess I will wander around and meet people, unless you need anything else?"

"Half fairy. You do need to worry about those things but I'm not trying to trip you up. - I'm not really trying to do much of anything. Karen is just feeling like maybe her magical skills have been growing faster than all the other skills involved in interdimensional shenanigans. And I don't think she was expecting the stakes to be so high, though she doesn't actually seem to be having very much trouble with that part. Are you okay? She's not going to hurt you."

"How'd she get her me?"

Permalink

"They were coworkers! They dug graves together, after school. Then they were attacked by zombies and she saved his life. By fairy rules it's important when that happened. It puts him in her debt."

Permalink

"...sucks to be a fairy."

Permalink

"It has some disadvantages. But humans, you know, die, so."

Permalink

"Fairies don't?"
