"We bonded over our mutual dislike of large bodies of water. And I like his style. He is brutally honest."

Idania giggles at 'mutual dislike of large bodies of water.'

Permalink

So does Spring.

"Alas, I have no special hatred for bodies of water of any size."

Permalink

"They are filled with terrible gods that are unfair and untrustworthy. Avoid them."

Permalink

"Uh, noted."

Permalink

Phix stirs, whimpering.

Permalink

Max scoots closer to her, looking worried but still effectively mute. Hair pet? Hair pet.

Permalink

"...Dragon?" she mumbles into his knee.

"Hey there, the dragon's been knocked out courtesy of Rain and had his medallion yoinked and all his moving parts weighed down," soothes Cam. "Your boyfriend ate half a spell and it wasn't so nutritious but he seems to be improving. If you wanna fix him too we can handle the dragon if he wakes up before you."

Max smiles at Phix and keeps petting her hair. He's fine with not being fixed with magic right this second.

"I'll try," says Phix, reasserting her usual preferred midform and snuggling up, "but I don't know if it'll work. If it does I want the interview with the dragon recorded." She shuts her eyes and -

Nothing. "I'm not sure what's up with my fairy princess magic today. I was expecting it to go off when the dragon snatched me, but, nothing, and then I could heal myself, and now it's not working and I don't know if that's because the spell swallowing isn't a fairy-princess-magic-addressable ailment or because I'm on the fritz."

Max points a finger at the dragon and raises a questioning eyebrow.

"I suppose it doesn't make a lot of sense for there to have been a war if the sphinxes could just fairy princess the dragons. Do you know if there's any - lore, I guess - about them being magic-inhibitors, like - live versions of the - antimagic field?"

She's only a little halting mentioning the antimagic field in the warehouse.

Max shrugs a little in an 'I don't know' gesture. And then he snuggles his girlfriend protectively. No more torture for his girlfriend, thank you, one dose was more than enough.

Permalink
"Well, I can do some of it a bit more at-will..." She plucks a hair from her head, snaps it in two, and fuses it back together. Then she nuzzles Darren - and edges towards the dragon and touches one lion-foot to his outflung weighed-down wing. She snaps the hair again and stares at it. Moves her foot, fixes the hair.

"Antimagic dragon. Over short range."
Permalink

Her boyfriend makes a face. How great.

Permalink

"... Does it include other types of magic? We should check."

Permalink

"I'd be really surprised, but - yeah, daeva, poke the dragon and see if your mojo behaves."

Permalink

Cam pokes the dragon. He makes an M&M and eats it. "Just you, Phix."

Permalink

"Okay. That's - good to know. Annoying for you, Phix, but still."

Permalink

Max nods. And - scoots himself and Phix away from the dragon, a bit. Protectively. His magic fairy princess kitty. Bad dragon.

Permalink

"I wonder how it works," muses Idania. "I'm working on the rune magic thingy, but - I wish the weird magic species effects had well-charted reasons for being magic."

Permalink

"Sorry, but in spite of Mr. Smaug's delusions I'm the only known living sphinx and can't give you much of a body of literature on how I work. Likewise with the dragon, unless he's got family."

Permalink

"Yeah. Blah, I'm mostly just annoyed because it's such delightfully straightforward magic with rules and it makes sense and everything and no one bothered to record it and that's upsetting."
