"- I think we should go to the house where they'll have a hard time bothering us. Probably."

"Okay."

She takes her baby back and follows him.

"Did they just get really small and go into that... stick house thing."

"Fairies can do that. And people who've eaten fairy food. - alienating them is going to be bad for Cecelia," he adds to Alex.

"Yep. I regret the effects that it has on her." 

" - I really really hate being the person to say this," he says to Elizabeth, "but I think you should have a law against murder in your dimension and send people home if they commit any. Possibly also a law against threatening murder but a law against murder might actually be sufficient, I don't think he'll make threats he doesn't mean."

...she sighs heavily.

"Yeah. Okay. Until further notice, anybody who murders anybody has to go home."

He holds his Karen and hugs her.

"Also, if anybody is considering murdering me to get around the no-murder rule, I would like to point out at this time that it seems likely that the dimension doesn't persist if I stop existing, which might mean that all of you die and might mean that all of you get sent home, I'm not sure."

Hey fairy?

What.

You're not in trouble with me. I know you didn't ask to be entangled with a bunch of humans, and I know it's not your fault that people keep lying, and I know there's nothing you can do to keep the fairy rules from objecting to it. I'm sorry.

You can unentangle us?

It's going to take a few days. After that I think so, yes. I'm sure I can do it given enough time.

Then it'll be okay.

Yeah.

She brings Connor back.

He has her spellbook.

She heads over to Connor and flips through it. She probably hasn't done enough magic to get a new spell, but she did, like, summon the pharaoh and make a ton of small objects, she figures she should at least check.

Not yet.

Figures.

It's honestly really annoying to have to abandon all of that stuff and go for disentangling instead, but it's the right thing to do, probably.

So I think the simplest way to unentangle people who are entangled because of names is to figure out how to erase people's memories. I could.... try to erase your memories of something stupid, I guess, over and over. Possibly there are better ideas in this genre but I'm really tired and not thinking of them.

Using Un-say a lot maybe? Since it is a spell that erases peoples' memories. - you could tell me names and then un-say them over and over, to be as pointed as possible.

Oh, yeah, I could do that. That's a good idea. 

Do you - think we should work on it until we get it or is it, like - I don't know whether it's okay to leave them like this as long as we'd need to sleep.

I think you should sleep when you're tired. - but maybe here, so they can wake us if they need us.

Yeah.

"I'm going to go to sleep. When I'm done I am going to try really hard to fix this until it's fixed, but - I'm really tired. If there are any more emergencies then - I'll be in that tent."

She heads for the tent.

He follows her.

She closes them in and hugs him and turns telepathy on.

She's scared that someone's going to do something terrible and a bunch of people are going to end up hurt and it will be all her fault.
