"I'm mostly just here so that if anything peculiar happens to Cam the door won't be lost."

"Right.  Well, thanks; see you later - possibly I should not see you later.  Because right now I don't have the ability to magically hurt you, and later I might, and even though I don't at all intend to, I don't want to - leave any room for misunderstandings."

"...okay," he says, sounding a little puzzled.

Permalink

"I don't think something bad is likely to happen to you but if anything does I want it to be very clear I had nothing to do with it?"

Permalink

"Oh. All right. Goodbye, then, I guess."

Permalink

"Bye."

And back inside, to ask - no, she told the security guy she'd only be a second; she should probably go talk to him first.

The security guy is still in the security office. He's eating an ice cream sundae.

"Hi!  Um, I've sorted things out on my end and am ready to be magically adjusted if you still feel like it?"

Permalink

"Which ways, you mentioned a few things?"

Permalink

"Probably start with seeing whether you can reduce the cooldown on how soon I can have magic again?"

Permalink

"Sure, all right." He squints at her a bit. "Did that work?"

Permalink

" . . . I'm not sure.  I guess I wouldn't be able to tell yet unless it was enough to get rid of it entirely?  Might just have to wait and see if it comes back sooner than normal."

Permalink

"I'd say come back if you need me to retry but that won't actually help, I can't get stronger in here."

Permalink

"Well, I appreciate you trying anyway.  Uh, how about the total power and also vocal range?  More the upper side but I won't scoff at low notes either."

Permalink

"Vocal range is easy - there you go - and I'll try on the total power thing, sure. Did that work?"

Permalink

"Didn't feel like anything that time either, I don't think."

Permalink

"Well, you can let me know when you find out, or don't, whatever."

Permalink

"I probably will!  Is there anything else that's really common for people to do where you're from?  Like, Cam mentioned he doesn't sleep and that's probably a different thing, but - first of all can you do that and second of all is there anything that you know of like that which I might not be thinking to ask about?"

Permalink

"I can't do that yet, that one's really hard. Uh, it's not really common to stick permanent effects on people who aren't themselves sorcerers. People who hang around us enough tend to do better in lots of ways but that's just part of how we work."

Permalink

"Okay!  Well, thanks, uh - I don't think I caught your name?"

Permalink

"Nechar."

Permalink

"Nechar!  Thanks."

Permalink

"Anytime. While I'm here, anyway, if you come to my world bets are off."

Permalink

"Oh?"

Permalink

"I'm busy at home."
