"I can breathe!" declares Max, giggling. "Sorry, sorry. Cam, I will tackle you later about your 'make anything' magic. I have things I would like you to make, if you're willing."

Permalink

"Yes, no problem, but first I really have to apologize to my girlfriend."

Permalink

"Yeah, we're just waiting on -"

Permalink

"Got it. Okay, clump up, before I forget all of the things ever." She motions at her younger alt and Max. "Go on!"

Permalink
"That!" says Max brightly, and he grabs the mirror and heads over to Zeviana.

And then they are in Wyoming.

"Do the portal thing," he says, brightly, as he gets to drawing circles.

Cam's happens to be first.

Here's Cam.

"Okay, I gave you circles with a binding, so now you get to set me a task and a price and when we've agreed on it I can leave the circle," he says. "And I did it that way in case you were going to fuck it up, which you did not, so I can show you nonbinding circles for Adana and Zane, and you can let me completely free if you feel like it instead of the task thing, act of will, very easy."

"With my magic system, if I fuck up at drawing things I could legitimately die a horrific, painful death. So I try very hard not to do that. Act of will, hmm -"

Max has a bit of trouble figuring out what it's an act of will towards, but he manages it anyway. The binding snaps.

"Oo, that did a thing, okay then. Next circle?"

"Here, I'll draw most of it for you, I just can't finish it -" Here is a circle to summon Adana done in tidy chalk on the ground, with a little gap, and a piece of chalk in Cam's hand to finish it with. Cam offers Max the chalk. And thrashes his tail.

Max takes it, and then finishes the circle.

Permalink
Then there is an Adana.

"What can I-"

She spots Cam. She notes the lack of binding. Those are the only two things she needs to know. Because then she is in his arms after tackling him and is kissing him passionately.
Permalink

Cam flops delightedly to the ground and sneaks his wings under her own and hugs her and oh does he ever kiss her.

Permalink
Oh, right, wings, she has those this time around, doesn't she? They're a lovely white with blue tips, the same shade as Cam's wings.

But he might not notice because kisses.
Permalink

Max blushes, and then gets to drawing the third circle on his own.

Permalink
Kisses kisses kisses kisses kisses. Wingsnugglehugs.

"So you aren't mad at me," Cam says breathlessly.
Permalink

"Why," laughs Adana, "would I be mad at you?"

Permalink

Kiss. His tail coils around her leg. "Because I didn't save you and - well, I suppose you wouldn't know how fantastically I made a hash of it when your murderer summoned me, but there was that too - and because I thought if you weren't mad at me you'd probably have been able to get someone to let you talk to your dad and have him summon me."

Permalink

"Please. I was the idiot that died - did you know how few people employ angels that have no idea how to do anything more complicated than making tunnels? Not to mention - all of my summoners were from Earth. Dad's on the moon. Comm access isn't - that easy." Kiss. "Most of my time was spent figuring out how to be an angel, because no one would let me at a comm that would get me Luna without me being able to mend bones or fix nerves or - I have been doing so much studying, you have no idea."

Permalink

"Well, you can take a break," Cam beams. "Plot twist, the demons found friendly summoners."

Permalink

Adana giggles, and looks at Max. "Hey, summoner! Thanks! Wait - did he give you wings?"

Permalink
"Mm?" says Max, confused. "Oh, right, I still have those out. Nope! These are mine! I'm from really far away!"

Then the wings go away and he goes back to drawing the circle.
Permalink



"What."
Permalink
"AHA! Got it, fuck yeah!"

And then there is a portal, embedded in a tree. "Suckiest portal ever, but I don't fucking care!"
Permalink


"What."
Permalink

"Angel darling, these are alternate universe versions of you, and your brother. There are mes, too. We are the weird genderbent universe."

Permalink
Adana takes a few seconds to process.

"Other... Universes. And they're here now?"
