"I know you will! And then people'll stop saying on the internet that they're just special effects."

She laughs. "Are people saying that? I don't read the comments."

"Some people. It's kind of important to me that people believe me about being a demon because I want people to be more informed about demons and that won't work if they think it's all just staged."

"Well, if anybody asks me, I'll tell 'em." She picks up a woodchip and offers it to him.

He takes the woodchip. "Thanks."

"You're welcome!"

And the summoner sends him home.

Circles?

None for him in particular right now.

He could start trying for random circles but he will go home and pay a fairy for Theodore first, and then make a video announcing Kate and Archibald's relocation, and then make a camera to film Minor goes to Hell and get himself dismissed again. 

On the third day of their lightleaper trip to go bring orcs compensatory dinner, Cam's binding is snapped. 

"Oh thank goodness I was starting to feel really ridiculous about not having packed a change of pants."

"Took them a while." Hug. "Oh no, you're constrained only by your good judgment and steadfast ethical principles instead of pages of magic legalese, I'm terrified."

"Rawr." Cam presumably has wholly innocent reasons for removing his pants.

That would make one of them.

Cam does not have innocent reasons for failing to promptly replace his pants!

He really can't think of any reasons at all why Cam should replace his pants.

Timothy's regard is very gratifying, as always.

Timothy is delighted to enable his boyfriend's emotional recovery from his trial for genocide. Also just delighted by Cam generally. 

They reach the orc planet and discover uses for pants.

So useful, are pants.

Here's the orcs' house.

Here are eight orcs! They wave at Cam, except the baby, who flails but doesn't have enough volitional motor control to be properly characterized as waving.

"...hi. Is it okay I brought my boyfriend? What can I get you guys for dinner?"

Of course it's okay, is he starting a family? How nice for him. They have lots of favorite dishes!

He is not starting a family; daeva can't have kids even when their partners are of the opposite sex. Food!

They are horrified! Poor daeva!!! 

...it really bothers some of them but not Cam especially...
