"Right, well. Should we knock now so that you're inside when you turn visible?"

"That... Yeah, that seems safest. Cam, or Max, knock, please?"

Knock knock?

And a man opens the door. He looks like a genuine mess, some combination of 'hasn't showered in days' and 'has possibly been doing a lot of drinking.'

"... Can I help you?" he asks.

"We can help you. It's about your kids. Can we come in to explain there?"

Max... is really bothered by seeing an alt of his dad like this. He makes a Vaguely Distressed face.

Permalink

"What, are you the media, come to interview me about 'delinquents'? Because I want no part in it."

Permalink

"Not quite," says Adana, softly, so her voice doesn't carry. "Hi, dad."

"Okay, if this is a prank it is in really bad taste," growls Vernon.
Permalink

"It's not," assures Zane. "We have a hell of a lot of explaining to do, it's all very freaky."

"... If this is a prank I will call the police and have you thrown in prison," he says, and then he moves out of the way so that all members can walk inside.

In goes Cam with his angel and her brother and her magic deer kid alt.

"First of all, I am very sorry that I screwed up my opportunity to get this information to you a year ago," Cam says. "And that I also screwed up my chance to render it unnecessary. Max, how long until the invisibility wears off?"

"A few more minutes, I'm not sure about the specifics - ugh, I should have used my watch to time it, that is what it's there for, sorry."

Permalink

"Get what information to me?"

Permalink

"When summoners - when summoners die, they become daeva."

Permalink




"That was why you had me and Zane summon a fairy."
Permalink

"Yeah. I was going to explain it all in person, but then I - well."

Permalink

"And now you're - invisible daeva? Who summoned you?"

Permalink

Darren waves. "Hi. I'm responsible for - both the invisibility and the summoning."

Permalink



"Okay."
Permalink

"And I'm the demon Adana summoned to make her that space station, and her source of information about the thing about dead summoners, and her boyfriend, please do not punch me in the face?"

Permalink

"... Adana?"

Permalink

"All of those things, totally true, and he's been a perfect gentleman the entire time."

Permalink

"Okay. Then - no getting punched in the face. Thanks for the dead summoners information, that's why Zane's here, too?"

Permalink

"Yup!"
