"I can offer my savings. Maybe help to find people with a good world to take you to, if that's the option you settle for."

Permalink

Angel is watching Tobir. He looks... conflicted about this idea. 

"It's not your responsibility to save the world, kiddo," she tells him, getting a hunch and running with it. 

Permalink

"I don't wanna save the world," he retorts. Most of the world can go hang, for all he cares. "Just..." 

Permalink

"Just your own people. How are you going to do that with what you have?" 

Permalink

"...I don't know." He's just a kid, and he's a Red. Even with whatever magic their mom got them...

Permalink

"You need more resources, and you need more time. Your world stays paused so long as someone from it is in this world. It'll also probably stay paused if you go to another world, so long as you mean to come back some day. You've got choices here. Make the right ones, and you could make some real changes."

Permalink

Tobir looks a little less conflicted, now. "But what if we don't find a door again?"

Permalink

"Then you don't. You live your life in a world where you and your family aren't in constant danger. Is that so bad?" 

Permalink

"It doesn't sound like it. You can't keep someone else warm by burning your house down. Whatever what you think you can do you can do better if you and your family are safe."

Permalink

"...Okay." He looks at Heri and Kenta, "Do you think she'll go? Our aunt." 

Permalink

"Mom hates our neighbors so much that not saving them will be a bonus."

Permalink

 

"Yeah. We will be back for them."

Permalink

Tobir makes a face at Kenta's words, and then nods at Heri, "We're not going away forever," he affirms.

"I guess we should go get them, then... Uncle Remi was just in the kitchen. I can call him from the door."

Permalink

"Our door leads straight to our room. There is no other door."

Permalink

"Well, that could be a problem."

Permalink

"I could probably bust through a wall as a last resort," Alex shrugs, "Probably give her a heart attack, though." Giant wolf bursting through the wall from her kids' room. Yeah, they should probably leave that one for if they get desperate. 

Permalink

"I should be able to go through walls. Less destructively, but requires a bit more preparation, my magic is more versatile."

Permalink

Heri purses his lips. This... magic business still sounds suspicious. 

Permalink

"One of them could shape-shift if that would help you believe," Angel offers, hiding a smile. 

Permalink

"Hm," he nods. "Does your magic let you keep your clothes on when you shift?" He directs at Felix. 

Permalink

"Clothes shift," he nods, "I can turn into a half-eagle half-lion being called a Griffon. And I also have other powers."

Permalink

"Just show us the magic."

Permalink

"Okay. Changing shapes." He gives himself wings.

Permalink

"Huh. Wings." He'd really like to go poke them but the idea of actually touching someone who might not be red is a little too scary for him.

Permalink

That captures Angel's attention pretty handily, "Oh, you can partially-shift so you only get wings?" Is she envious? Maybe a little.
