"...Uh, okay..."

"And we are looking for someone to take them - well, all the ones on this one island - into space, pretty far away. It won't hurt them but they can't go around hurting people anymore."

"They don't work from far away?"

"They have a range of like 300 meters. You could do it with binoculars and they'd be nowhere near close enough to bother you."

"Okay, and they don't have some kind of limit break where as soon as their power is threatened they will unleash their true potential?"

"There is no reason to think they have that but if anything starts to go wrong I'll send you home right away."

"But what if it happened at you?"

"I can be even farther away, keep a - video camera? - with you."

"They can't break cameras?"

"If the camera breaks something went wrong and I send you home."

"Hmmm," says the fairy dubiously.

"Any stuff you want?"

"Well, I don't know if you noticed but a while ago I wandered into a thornbush and now I don't have pants."

"Thought maybe it was a deliberate fashion choice. I know a demon, he can make you some pants."

"Being without pants doesn't bother me enough to get me to transport nightmare monsters though."

"Well, demon. He can also make you some other stuff."

"...like how much stuff?"

"I hear demons are not really constrained by amount of stuff."

"Well, true, I dunno how he's bound though."

"He, uh, isn't. It's kind of a long story but he's helping us out and doesn't mind making stuff."

"You just... keep an unbound demon around?"

"I trust him and also his summoner's on another planet so even if I were inclined to do something about it on general principle I don't have a way to do that."

"You can't just send an extranet message to Mars?"

"Mars isn't the planet. It's called Atriama and it's in intergalactic space somewhere."

"...You're having fun with me, aren't you."
