"Huh! Neat." She glances up at her darling, makes eye contact, and gently prods for what else has been covered already in the conversation. 

She sends the memories. And some of the lap-Bella sensations, as a little bonus.

Heee.

Then: "What happened to the other version of her?" she asks, nodding to Luthien.

...Mrrrrr.

(She doesn't mind if Luthien talks about it, but.)

Snuggles. "Before we got married, my wife was going through the loops alone. She was- she could direct them, in a limited way. Pick which templates had which script to read from. I- the other me, was her lieutenant in the first loop she remembers, before she started assigning people."

"And that me was most of the reason she kept going, working to break the cycle."

"But to get here, she had to move me. Create a completely alien context. And it worked, and we met and fell in love and got married and broke free, but. That original me is gone."

"Oh."

"...My darlings and I have some power over death. We'll help, as best we can."

She tightens her arms around Luthien. "She's not technically dead, but... Perhaps."

"I preserved her memories from each loop, or - I think I did. I should have the power to create a soul and give it her memories, but - there's uncertainties there."

"I possess an artifact which calls forth shades of those departed, and my Fay bears a wand that has power over death. With a properly constructed ritual, they may assist in that endeavor."

She nods. "Some way to evaluate the best path on integrating her memories would be helpful, too. I... Can't just - pick a version of her - but there were. A lot. Of loops."

She tilts her head. "Fay, will the bar sell us a pensieve?"

"Let me go check..." She detangles herself from Bella some and stands, stretching, then kisses both her darlings and heads off.

"What's a pensieve?"

"A magical device for storing, sorting, and reviewing memories."

"...That sounds like it'd help. Does it have - an upper limit?"

"Not in ordinary use by wizards, but I am not aware of anyone whose has attempted to use one to sort thousands of years of memories. The potential problems I foresee have mainly to do with distinguishing between memories finely enough."

"...It's actually high millions. I'm expecting that - similar memories probably will and possibly should be blurred together."

"Perhaps Bar can recommend one with a high enough capacity..."

"Volume limitations may be the driving factor, at that order of magnitude. While extracted memories are not strictly physical, a certain quantity of water is required to create the proper solution."

She nods. "I could run some smaller scale tests with other memories, possibly."

"That would be wise, I think."

She nods.

"Thank you for this."

"Solving an interesting challenge with a pretty girl is never a hardship."

She laughs. "That's downright one of my favorite things."

"What a fortunate coincidence."

"Well, good taste is very consistent across roles a template could be in."

"Of course."
