"He's also a demon. Adana's an angel."

".... Right. And demons are not all crazy and soul-stealing and going to turn the Earth into a black hole. Right?" He glances nervously at Max.

Permalink

"Yeah, Zane's fine. Just with - magic powers and immortality."

Permalink

"Oh, also, soul-stealing, not a thing, never has been."

Permalink

"Glad to hear it. Uh - invisible kids. Hug. How can I hug you? Where do I aim?"

Permalink

"Over here," says Adana, and then - there is presumably a hug that Veron returns. Zane is involved in it, too, but since two thirds of the hug members are invisible it looks kind of silly.

Permalink

Awww.

And that is when Adana abruptly becomes visible.

Permalink

Followed by Zane!

"Oh, well, that's suitably dramatic timing, I suppo-"

And then she can't talk because there are very insistent hugs.
Permalink

Yay!

"Okay," says Vernon, after there has been a decent fraction of the necessary hugs filled. "So - invisibility, do I want to know what that was? And - actually, who are you, kid, just some summoner that Adana talked into helping by summoning two demons?"

"Nnnnno that is a long story. Um. I have no idea how to properly explain it. Help?"

"Okay, so, earlier today, me and Zane were hanging out in Hell, Adana was in Heaven, and Max here was in an alternate universe. It turns out that there are lots of alternate universe versions of us three, who have different kinds of magic in their universes. Max is an alternate universe version of Adana. There are two more of her, two more of me, and several Zanes too, all waiting in the ship we got here in, and some more of each of us who did not join us for the ride. The alternate universe magic includes both invisibility and portals that can go between universes."

"What."
Permalink

"Yeah, that. Um. We're going to fix lots of things now that we have access to alternate universe magic."

Permalink



"Okay."
Permalink

"You can come to the ship with us and meet them, if you like, if Max will re-invisible these legally dead individuals - well, I suppose I'm also legally dead, but not recently enough to matter."

Permalink

"I - maybe, give me a bit to - absorb. All of this."

Permalink
Adana pats his shoulder.

"We're okay, dad."
Permalink

Vernon nods. "That's - that's what's important."

Permalink

"I am again very sorry for - not saving her."

Permalink

"That's - kind of a weird thing to apologize for?"

Permalink

"Why is no one accepting my apology for that?"
