"Oh, right. Sorry, nope."

"Synced with...?"

Permalink

"Uh, because magic, this place does not have time passing at the same rate in all of its parts. Someone might go inside and experience twenty minutes but it's been a year out here. We have a specific spot indoors where time is passing at the same rate as it is in - Hell, actually, I don't even know if that guarantees a sync with Fairyland itself - but anyway, right here is not synced like that. I guess we could sync it - Minor, do you have the list -"

"What's it titled?"

Permalink

"No idea."

Permalink

"Then no I don't." He makes a note for Cam.

Permalink

Cam sends him the list. I'm keeping it chiplocked so nobody who notices the bound daeva walking around in their own worlds knows to expect to be next.

Permalink

Makes sense. What's the circle you're using for them?

Permalink

Cam sends that too.

Permalink

He picks a fairy just in case syncing with Hell doesn't sync with Fairyland, makes a circle.

Permalink

He finishes it. "Okay, now we can offer a regular summons."

Permalink

"Cool. I'm Chespa, I... don't have a Quenya spelling yet, can I borrow pen and paper and figure one out..."

Permalink

" - yeah of course but the alphabet I know is non-standard, will that matter -"

Permalink

He makes her pen and paper.

Permalink

She takes them without touching them. "Uh, I don't think it matters for the summon? Probably not? I think if I declare it's how you spell my name in this alphabet it works. Why do you know a nonstandard alphabet?"

Permalink

"Uh, I'm dyslexic and the standard one's hopelessly swoopy, when I was thirty and still couldn't read my dad sat down and invented a better one."

Permalink

"Okay. If I'm gonna be around a lot I might want somebody who knows the regular one to summon me so I can get that but this should work for circles." She finalizes a spelling and shows it to him.

Permalink

"Yeah, that's how I'd write it. I can have my dad summon you, he speaks eleven languages and writes in five alphabets and he only stopped at that because that was all our native dimension had. Anyway, dragons aren't supposed to attack anyone who isn't indestructible or run off out of your range, swimming's fine, and the demon can pay you."

Permalink

"Alrighty! Uh -" She looks at Minor. "Are you a demon, you don't have wings but sometimes kids wait on those..."

Permalink

"Yeah I'd have to get them adjusted somehow."

Permalink

"Okay, so I can let dragons attack you, got it." She sits and supervises.

Permalink

The dragons will be distracted for as long as Amriac is feeding them!

Permalink

Amriac will get bored eventually and disentangle herself from the dragons to go practice music.

Permalink

Then they'll go back to nest-making and flying and swimming and trying to nibble on people. 

Permalink

Chespa manages them pretty competently.
