"Both of those things." Bella pecks him on the temple.

Permalink

Awwwwww. Unique and beautiful and funny, too.

Permalink

"And tasty," Aianon contributes.

Permalink

"You know it."

Permalink
That is interesting and adorable.

(She misses her beloveds. This is just another thing they cannot really try until they are together again.)

Her beloveds miss her too.

"You've got that look again," says Ripper, and he hugs Aianon.

"I'm sorry. We could find a door any time," Bella sighs. "If you wanted we could try finagling something with the thing where Jokers can dream to Milliways, maybe, but it probably wouldn't even work and Sarion's not getting doors either anyway."

Isibel does not think Pattern should be sorry. Her request for help with Saturn was reasonable, her beloveds accepted of their own will, and no one foresaw that Jane would break again with Aegis so well-protected.

And she isn't getting doors, and would not be able to meet her beloveds at Milliways, and that could not be trusted as a mechanism anyway, given how long Beast languished trapped before it happened to him.

Hugs.

Hugs.

Isibel would just as soon speak of happier topics. She has heard what Pattern thinks of Ripper; what does Ripper think of Pattern?

Permalink
He giggles, still hugging Aianon, then kisses him and goes back to Bella.

"I think she's amazing, of course." Snugglekiss!
Permalink

Isibel was hoping for slightly more detail.

Permalink

"I'm sure nobody wants me to start listing all the things she's amazing at, except maybe you," and he grins at Aianon.

Permalink

That is fair.

Permalink

Bella blushes and giggles.

Ripper kisses the top of Bella's head.

"And you're adorable," he tells her. "And funny. And the magical empress part doesn't hurt."
Permalink

"I am adorable and funny and also a magical empress. Apparently some people have decided Sarion is a saint," she adds.

Permalink

"How's that work?"

Permalink

Isibel is not intimately familiar with the human religion, but they apparently think she is an agent of the Light - deliberately or coincidentally - and the title puts her in company with Idalia, who died to defeat darkness more than two thousand years ago.

Permalink

"Although," says Aianon, "they might change their minds if they knew about me."

Permalink

Isibel has been planning not to make him generally known until she is better known and better trusted. It would frighten people; it would make it harder to do her job.

Permalink

"Of course it would."

Permalink

"Yeah, I don't put Aianon on the cover of the imperial newsletter either," says Bella. "Helpful though he is."
