"What if people do daevafy when they're summoners and the Valar break summoning again, then what."

"- are we at least in agreement it would be incredibly evil and unfair of them -"

"'Incredibly' is maybe pushing it... and 'unfair'... I'll give you 'evil' in a loose sense."

"We can start time running in Hogwarts again, figure out if summoners daevafy - not guaranteed to be the same result across worlds but it'd at least be more information than we currently have -"

Check. "- yes. There's somebody down as volunteering for experiments even if they require some time spent awake."

"Then I'll go talk to them about finding out whether the Killing Curse kills them, why don't I."

He goes back up to his room.
He takes a shower and enspells all the pillows to beat themselves violently against the wall and sets his computer to wake him up if he gets urgent messages from Cam.
He draws a circle.

Plez is a small androgynous demon in shades of amber wearing a white robe thing with a flower embroidered on it that looks like it might be some kind of poppy garden uniform. They don't say anything on arrival.

"Hi. My world has magic - different kind of magic than you're used to - and there's a spell called the Killing Curse. It kills people. We have no idea if it works on daeva. Complicating matters, it can only be cast for evil reasons - so, we can't just cast it on a consenting demon. I happen to know someone who is not a very good person and could be persuaded to try it, but - if you change your mind, there's a point at which it'd probably be too late, and it'd require being conscious for a while though I can use different magic on you in the meantime so you don't have to actually be doing anything."

"My world's magic is pretty versatile, if there are instead conditions under which you'd want to be alive."

"Like, if the problem is that you are not happy often enough, we can fix that, I don't know, I don't have a clear idea of why daeva who want to die mostly want that - do you prefer to communicate some other way, you can appear me notes or something -"

Plez thinks, and appears a little sheet of paper for Timothy to take.
It reads I just really hate the sound of my voice. How do you fix not being happy?
too-early-and-too-late
"There're charms for it, I can cast one of those now if you want to see what it feels like, and potions which last longer and which you could take home with you - you can't make them, they're magic, but a regular supply could definitely be arranged -"

"If I take you there under mind control you probably aren't going to have a chance to change your mind, and if you happen to throw it off and tell me you've changed your mind it's possible it'd be too late for me to get you out of there, is that okay?"
