It's okay, you weren't the only person upset.

Weak giggle. No I wasn't. 

The Noldor are so dramatic. 

I'd get pretty dramatic if I had an evil alt.

Maybe I'd feel differently if I knew more about evil things she did but it doesn't feel that different from learning there are more problems in the world. Why would it bother you more than just that?

...well for one thing an otherwise normal one of me who simply happened to be evil would be terrifying. And it'd feel - violating, kind of, for an evil alt to run anything really bad on my mental architecture, that's - that's not what it's for -

And he's proud of the fact he can get people to accept that he's gay, and then he sees the other one use it to get them to accept anything - yeah, I guess I see what you mean.

Yeah.

And from now on whenever they see an Arda with happy people planning a wedding together they have to wonder first 'well, is it mind control' -

yeah, okay -

Squeeze.

Hugs. 

And after a while, we should write Cam and get our cool magic.

I'd bet the complete rundown takes a couple hours at least, you up for that?

...maybe we can sleep, and get our cool magic in the morning.

Sure. Snuggle.

And in the morning, you should probably write Cam, since you sort of know him -

Yeah, will do. And she writes up a note. Dunno how often he checks his mail though.

Well, it's not like we don't have anything to keep us busy.

It's true!

Empressing and wedding planning activities ensue.

And Cam shows up about half an hour post-note.

With somebody who looks like Gem but taller and with very different dress sense.

"Hi!"

"Hi! I tagged along to go awwwwwww while Cam installs things."

"Which one are you?"

"I'm Loki! I think I'm the only Bell besides Gem who's more than passingly met a one of you, so if you want to go around meeting alts Elentári's probably where you want to start."

"We're going to stay around here where we can grant wishes for a while, I think, except for fixing the demon planet which I sort of feel personally responsible for. Would she be interested in coming around and meeting me? Is she going to be weird about me being married to Bella, I would have been weird about it but Bella explained to me..."

"I'm not actually sure how she'll react, there kept being all these reasons I wasn't going to hit on her so I didn't sound her out on it. She's civil enough around Maedhroses and Findekános. I can ask her if she wants to come by. Now?"
