Really, I can't leave you all alone for a few simple months. You've been taking far too many lessons from me.

Ooh, that sounds like an amusing story.

I thought mine had been blown up by an incarnation of my own Darkness, but now I'm not so sure. Fancy stopping by Persia in case it's still there?

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

An incarnation of... damn it, does the universe ever stop recycling plots?

I just now got in range of the network, but I don't have Persia on my map. New world?

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

That's what I said.

Use the world compass I gave you, if you haven't broken it yet. Or you could just pick me up first and let me drive.

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

I'm probably closer to Radiant Garden than Persia and all I need is to end up in the hypothetical universal ditch.

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

You may not be lucky, but you are certainly wise.

There is one little thing you should probably know before you get here, because it's not going to be little for very much longer...

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

I learn from my mistakes... usually... eventually.

...Radiant Garden is still there, right?

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

Radiant Garden is fine and dandy. Well, still in existence, anyway, which is better than nothing.

No, this is a bit less major than the destruction of a world... though at the rate they come and go, that might be debatable.

What I just said about you being unlucky... well... remember last February?

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

Only a bit, huh? It's not falling to darkness, is it? That'd be unfortunate.

Yes? In my defense, I haven't been that unlucky since I left, save for the lava... and the strange Aztec pyramid... and getting lost in a jungle for two weeks... and setting a castle on fire...

Um... you were saying?

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

No, this has nothing to do with darkness or the fate of worlds or any other everyday issue.
I am trying to be delicate here. I'd really prefer if you manage to work it out yourself, because blurting something like this out is not at all my style. However...

You might happen to recall some of our recreational activities during those few days you were here last? My sisters certainly complained about you hogging all my time...

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

The magic thing? Don't tell me you blew up Rainbow's End.

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

Magic? Oh, that.

No, Mister I'm-Soulbonded-to-a-Grouchy-Succubus ignoring the fact that I'm sort of responsible for that. Try again.

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure where you're really going with this. And she's getting better... somewhat

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

Right, I forgot. You're absolutely horrible at taking my hints. Oh, that's good to hear.

Let me just narrow it down a bit for you...

Remember the bedroom? We spent rather a lot of time in bedrooms, if I'm not mistaken.

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

...please tell me your soul is still intact?

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

Oh.
Oh, you are hilarious.
And slightly adorable.

There's nothing wrong with my soul, Josi. Nothing that you might have caused, anyway.

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

Only slightly?

I may not have caused what's wrong with it, but maybe I can fix it.

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

Heheh.

I'm not sure if the whole "incarnation of Darkness" thing has a direct connection to the soul itself, or if it's something else, but you're welcome to try.

I am worried a little about the effect it might have on the brat.

[epauranonavere.livejournal.com]

I'll get back to you on that theory.

Eli has graduated from adorable nephew to brat? He hasn't even entered the terrible twos yet.

Listen, I should probably back within the week. If Radiant Garden is still there and you haven't, I don't know, created a tell-all memoir, I'll see you soon.

[songbird9.livejournal.com]

You are hopeless.
But I missed you anyway, so hurry home.
