Her delighted gazing is so good. (Her shivers and giggles are also good. He should remember the hair-ruffling thing for the next time he is delighting his orf.)

Architecturrrrrrrrre! Plants! She picks flowers and makes a wreath and drapes it on her unimpressed baby.

Permalink

Serik follows her around and watches her be delighted at things. It is the best. It is just so the best.

Permalink

Eventually she is delighted by a guest room and she flops into the bed and kisses her baby and puts her down beside her and goes to sleep.

Permalink

Awwwwwwwwww. Best and cutest orf.

Permalink

She doesn't sleep that long. She wakes up and resumes wandering. She investigates one of the tables at which food appears and is surprised and delighted and tries everything and gives her baby some of most of it.

Permalink

Serik sleeps a little longer than she does, but he is awake in time to find her at the table and materialize and hug her because she is the best and cutest orf.

Permalink

Eee! Hi!

Permalink

"Hi." Kiss. "You're adorable."

Permalink

Thank you!

Permalink

He kisses her again, then sits down at the table to acquire breakfast.

"Enjoying life at my castle so far?"

Permalink

It's so nice, everything in it is gorgeous, it could've been built by Elves - what are you anyway -

Permalink

"Human, I guess. There's only the one thing to be around here. Unless somebody turns you into something like I did with my swans."

Permalink

Why did you turn them into swans, anyway?

Permalink

"Oh, it's kind of a long story, but there's a spell to make people really thoroughly immortal and it doesn't work quite right and it wrecks them after a while, and if they spend half their time as swans they get wrecked half as fast."

(It is useful to have his swans be really thoroughly immortal because otherwise he keeps accidentally killing them. Even with the swan spell burning them out, he still goes through them way slower than he used to.)

I guess your magic doesn't do reembodiments?

Permalink

"Huh? Making a body is the easiest part of the problem, it's the being dead part that gets in the way -"

- he's actually put some thought into resurrection before because that would make his swans recyclable, and he can't quite get it figured out, but if he had something to embody it'd be a breeze by comparison.

Permalink

Wait, so when humans or swan humans die they just sort of evaporate, they don't go anywhere?

Permalink

"- yeah? Why, do orfs and so on stick around?"

Good news if they do. Means he won't have to be sad if his orf dies, he can just bring her back.

Permalink

Well, our souls go to the halls of Mandos, who is one of the Elf gods, and most orcs think that if he gets orc souls he tortures them forever but milady Thuringwethil says he doesn't, but he definitely doesn't let them be alive again. But Elves can just die and come right back.

Permalink

"Oh, so if you die and I want you back I have to go fight a god for it?"

Permalink

I could probably stay floating around here? I dunno I've never been dead.

Permalink

"Well, if it comes up, try the floating-around thing." He ruffles her hair. "I'd definitely fight a god for you but I'd rather not have to."

Permalink

Sharp gasp and a lean into his hand. Okay I will!

Permalink

"Is that an orf thing or a you thing or what, humans do not react to having their hair touched like that." Ruffle.
