Isaac doesn't look particularly distressed but not exactly flattered by this behavior. "Well, I do have groceries to organize, but please call me if you four need anything."

He (followed by Felix) depart kitchen-wards.

"So is there something in the water around here?"

Permalink

"What something? And I remind you that we are from across the pond so the metaphorical water-related property is clearly not from around here."

Temple is still looking at where Isaac was standing.

Permalink

"I mean how you are hot twins and have a hot babysitter who is apparently hot enough to mesmerize the Cardcaptor."

Permalink

"Mesmerize," Temple says in agreeable tones.

"Ah, in my case, it could explained by the general benefits of being healthy, wealthy and magical. I doubt whoever created the medallions would've given them bad human forms. And I don't personally think Isaac warrants... this," he waves at Temple, "but he was from an isolated avalon that was led by someone... that did a lot of micromanagement. Of the genetic experimentation kind."

Permalink

"—aha. Well. I don't think he warrants that either but, apparently, he does."

Fenris eyes Temple. "Does this happen often? At this point I'm vaguely suspecting Card, but I don't think I recall this particular effect."

Permalink

"Never before, that I know."

Permalink

"I'd never. But he is dreamy and looks so nice! I bet he is nice. Is he nice?"

Permalink

 

"Yes."

He says this with an air that communicates there is more to it.

Permalink

"I knew it!"

She looks at Fenris quizzically.

Permalink

"The point of the experimentation was supposedly to purify people and make them nice. I would say Isaac is a success. I have no idea what happened to the failures."

Permalink

At least that breaks Temple's spell, who looks at Fenris horrified.

Permalink

...yeah that is kinda horrifying.

Permalink

"I was planning to mention that not all avalons are nice. Sorry, for not doing so earlier."

Permalink

"I'm not sure that would have made me any less horrified."

Permalink

"No, but my guess is that you have a stronger preference for knowing than for remaining contentedly ignorant."

Permalink

"Naturally."

Permalink

"Is the place still there? And..." he waves at door Isaac went through, "what exactly were the effects?"

Permalink

"Yes, but the guy responsible died so the experiments stopped. My grandfather visited and the place is genuinely nice, however terrible the costs. Isaac himself doesn't really suffer from anything I wouldn't say. He just appears to have instincts and impulses tweaked such that he does not get things like enjoying someone suffering."

"Well then I guess that's not that bad now."

Felix returns, Fenris updates him in the conversation.
