"May as well harness it now. Soon enough there won't be huge numbers of orphaned Godspring children either. And it might improve treatment of daeva on Revelation if they had to wait an hour for a new random and were incentivized to find long term arrangements that work for their summonees."

"Yeah. All right, we can get to interviewing would-be parents."

Permalink

"We should also communicate in the daeva realms that if someone ends up trapped or mistreated taking summons, they or someone who notices they're missing can write us and we'll get them immediately released and, if it's outside Revelation, their kidnapper sanctioned."

Permalink

"That should help."

Permalink

"We should at least do our best to make something this economically disruptive gradual."

Permalink

"At least by human standards."

Nod. "The interviews'll take a few months, we can do the rollout after that."

"I suspect Bella's parents will put up with staying in Milliways that long."

Permalink

"Yeah I guess. They can have different rooms."

They get to doing interviews.

There are plenty of daeva left who want kids and, given childcare assistance, would take several hours a day of being summoned and dismissed to get them.

 

A fairy writes in that his friend took a specific summons after dinner the other day and still isn't back.

And where is he -

Permalink

Stuck in a circle in some North Dakota wilderness.

What's United States law about summoning daeva without offering a task -

Permalink

Stands at two weeks but that's being contested.

"File a police report for when the two weeks are up and bring him coffee in the meantime, we're trying not to make the governments of Revelation feel like they've got a bunch of magic vigilantes running around."

Permalink

"Two weeks is a long time." Who's the summoner -

Permalink

Some lady resident in North Dakota.

Permalink

He flies by to bring the fairy coffee. "The cops won't make them send you home for two weeks. I'm sorry."

Permalink

"Who're you?" Slurp.

Permalink

"Friend of yours in Fairyland wrote asking after you. This happened to me a couple months ago and it was horrible so I thought I'd come let you know you're not stuck here forever and make you stuff if you wanted."

Permalink

"I could use, like, a roof. Looks like rain."

Permalink

Roof. "I can see if I can talk your summoner into dismissing you."

Permalink

"Who even is it?"

He makes the model again.
