"Hair is a sex thing, for Elves. - also wizards don't do premarital sex but Elves can't, sex causes their magic marriage bond to snap into place."

"- yikes."

"Why don't wizards have premarital sex - if you have reliable birth control -"

"Because we are very traditional and conservative."

"Huh. Well, I can think of a couple thousand higher priorities than improving wizard culture but if anyone's willing to take pollution seriously they can come live on one of our planets, once we find our way back to them."

"Are you running them at this point?"

"I have a sizable role but I still have to convince several people whenever I want something major and the planet'll probably be self-governing technical-protectorates in a while."

"What does that actually consist of - since you can 'clean' the reds -"

"Uh, if you touch a dead person there's a process, you don't, I don't know what aliens might find appealing, dig through the garbage or pee outside because the line's too long, mostly I mean 'you don't go around loudly saying that you think it's stupid and making everyone wonder whether you and by extension they are clean'."

"That doesn't sound too hard but I can't say I have a burning desire to live among aliens."

"Language barrier would be annoying without creepy omnipresent telepathy Elves helping."

"Annnnd now I'm thinking about the creepy omnipresent telepathy Elves. They are listening to us judge them! Oh no!"

"They're a bit creepy! I want to pick up that private thoughts thing!"

"Miranda and Timothy already had it because they knew Occlumency, rest of us had to do it after we met Elves."

"And your house is now all set so you can all practice while having a bit more space."

"Thanks!" calls Katin.

"For sure! Take care!" Pop.

Inlad's Elf prince alt wants to meet him and Shasali!

Shasali would be delighted to meet her husband's alt, should they bring the kids?

They should, he would be delighted to meet the kids.

And this is logistically complicated, where are they meeting and is it clean or are they going to have to take more awful extended showers -

They could just go somewhere Peka hasn't been? All this fuss is about Peka, right?

...and her Katin.

...okay, somewhere Peka and the new Katin have not been. 

And that no contact with them has propagated to.
