"You don't? You're saying with two amazing children like this they never brought someone home?" he asks, looking adoringly at Edie.

"Are you so surprised by the thought that you're the first person who's met my standards?"

"Well when you put it that way."

"I've brought people home before but mostly not people inclined to follow cultural scripts."

"I mean I'm curious about the cultural scripts for themselves since different culture but." Shrug.

"Right, but since they weren't inclined to follow cultural scripts they didn't educate Mom on them."

He grins. "Okay, fair enough."

A moment later a man comes around the corner and gives Kaede a once-over. "Erik Lehnsherr," he introduces himself.

He turns his grin to Erik. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lehnsherr, I'm Kaede."

He offers a hand to shake.

Handshake!

"So I hear you're going to help Edie fix everything."

"Well, it looked like she already had matters well in hand but I'll do what I can to make it easier and faster."

"Oh, let's be fair, I only had some of the things well in hand."

"And were in the way to getting the other things well in hand."

Hug.

Hug!

"Anyway, I'm very curious about what you work with, Ms. Xavier."

"Didn't Edie say? I teach genetics at the local university."

"Yeah, but I'm curious about—details, genetics isn't a field of study back home, I'd love to know more about it than Wikipedia can summarise at me."

"Oh, I see. Was there anything in particular or...?"

"Well I'm curious specifically about how come we're—the same—in such wildly different worlds."

"I don't think I can throw very much light on that without access to your universe's fossil record."

"...hmm. I wonder if I could past-watch it from here..."

"I'm sure I don't know enough about your magic system to guess."

"It'd be expensive but now I can generate mana," he says, grinning, and then—

—strikes a pose. And does a bunch of ridiculous things. Because he's a magical girl and he has not gotten over it, it's so amazing.
