If anyone has been contacted by Poe Dameron about being turned into a bird...

He is fine. He is well. For the time being. [deleted]

I'm taking care of it...

And I truly do apologize for his...excitement, for lack of a better term.

If anyone is upset, just contact me directly.


Thank you.

Because magic doesn't exist in my world. I cannot control something that, inherently doesn't exist within me.

Audio

[earlofphantoms]

Maybe it doesn't work that way? Some think magic can be accessed through language. Latin, for example, is thought to be powerful.

Audio

[talentedscavenger]

Maybe, but I'm not interested to find out.

But you sound more interested in it than I am.

Audio

[earlofphantoms]

I have my reasons for learning of it at the very least. My world is far more interesting than I previously knew.

Audio

[talentedscavenger]

I hope you don't get hurt or injured for it. I'm not sure how powerful magic is, but if it can change someone into a creature, it must be very powerful.

Audio

[earlofphantoms]

I am already dead in my world. I do not see I have much to lose.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

[...well shit.]

I am sorry...I had no idea.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

It wasn't your doing, dear lady. I am happy to be here. I have my son and a friend to keep me company.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

[A lady? Her? She doesn't really think so, but she'll let it slide for now.]

At least you have him. At least he has family here, and if you two are happy here, then I hope you have a long stay.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

I am in complete agreement! If you should happen to meet him, his name is Ciel. {No, he isn't a proud father. And he is kind enough to use the name his child has chosen for the time being.}

audio

[talentedscavenger]

I don't know if I will, but I'll remember the name in case I do meet him.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

I can't ask for more. I suppose all fathers want their children to make friends.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

I would like to imagine that..and that mothers would love their children until the very end.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

That is unquestionable. Parents cannot help loving their children no matter their choices.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

[Rey pauses for a moment, thinking of her family...of her parents.]

That's comforting to know.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

Your parents are watching over you. Sometimes we don't get to spend as much time with our children as we'd like. {He senses she has suffered a loss too.}

audio

[talentedscavenger]

[She has...but it's part of life.]

It's something I like to imagine, especially when things are hard.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

{Poor Rey. They are from both ends of the spectrum.}

You are too kind for them not to be proud.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

There's no need to say such things, Vincent.


..I appreciate it though. Save those kind words for your son.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

I am not saying them solely for your benefit. I believe it. Parents want nothing more than their children's happiness.

Nothing should come before it.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

[Another moment of silence with Rey reflecting on his words.]

Thank you for telling me that. I didn't know that..I had hoped, but having confirmation of that means a lot.

audio

[earlofphantoms]

You didn't have nearly enough time with them. I am sorry for you and for them. {Ten years wasn't enough time with his boys.} I have twins and nothing prepared me for the day they were born.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

No need to be sorry. It's in the past. I can remember their voices..and their faces a little. But I know they loved me.

[Twins? But he only mentioned one son...she will not ask.]

audio

[earlofphantoms]

{Only one son is present currently - and, as far as he knows, the other perished at the hands of their enemies.}

Good. Then their legacy is secure and you know you were not brought into any world without love.

audio

[talentedscavenger]

[..What sort of legacy could she possibly have? Love was the one thing she wanted, but if that's a legacy, she'll gladly take it.]

You are certainly a wealth of wisdom, Vincent. Has anyone told you that?
