The Valar announce that they've done as much as they can in Singularity (they can't bring back peoples' babies in that critical period either, but they can get them earlier versions) and are setting up portals between there and Sanity as soon as they are confident they've cleaned up the plague. A bunch of Elf architects have this wild idea for a fivedimensional city where alternating intersections are interdimensional portals between various Valinors and they get eagerly to setting it up.
Because if she wanted him trapped forever she would just do that. But she doesn't want that, it's horrible and cruel.
Other people are scared too; they're scared he'll do it again. This way means no one needs to be scared ever again.
She has noticed. Being scared might explain why you hurt other people, and it might be reassuring on the question of whether you'll hurt other people again, but it doesn't mean that there will be no consequences for hurting other people.
Is she going to experience any consequences for kidnapping him? Or that poor screaming angel, what did she do to him, that's very alarming come to think of it.
The demon is not super sure of that. He will go sit with the screamy angel and be upset.
He waits for the GCP people to verify that they had an unbound demon running around.
They determine that the demon was not technically unbound but was definitely inadequately bound and not escorted by his summoner. If Maitimo knew about this why didn't he say?
He had no idea at the time, obviously. After he was asked if he knew the activists who looked like him, he had some forensic conjurations done because he was curious, and that's when he found out, and he was composing a summary of the evidence he'd discovered to send to them when they came to him about the Valar.
He's sure they won't repeat the mistake. They should let him know if they need anything.
They don't seem inclined to consider him a helpful source of any anything at the moment.
The GCP is not technically a polity and they have complained about him to everybody but many people are willing to ignore them.
He is increasingly thinking that the GCP needs to be dismantled rather than reformed; they are not, narrowly construed, bad at their jobs, but the jobs are no longer necessary and they are terrible at dealing with complicated situational factors and probably a significant driver of the 'demons need to be gagged' thing.
He asks Minor if he'd have fun making a video about the prank he pulled on the GCP by visiting as a demon.
"The idea is, like, people don't take them seriously and also watch a video in which a demon is basically a normal fifteen year old boy?"
"Well, do try for 'likable but definitely incapable of soul-stealing fifteen year old boy.' But yes, I would find that entertaining and I'm making no headway any other way."
"The GCP is doubling down on being jackasses because sending bound daeva back home is not anywhere in their procedural handbook. I think Maitimo is currently inclined to give up on getting along with them, which means he can dismiss you if he pleases, but if you have a different take we should probably share it first."
