we are not truly immortal

[dark_light]

After Glass's party is over with, Amariah and Kas go home.

Amariah fetches down their alethiometers.

"It's about time I took care of Alethia's afterlife, whatever it may be," she says quietly. "What can the alethiometer tell you about what I'll find?"

[Also apparently a square suffices to see what one's daemon would be. I'm rather curious.]

"The end," she tells the girls, and she kisses them each goodnight, puts them in their respective rooms and tucks them in, and goes to where Sherlock and Tony are and wishes up an illusory daemon.

"Aww," she says of the tiny flying squirrel.

"That is adorable," says Sherlock.

[thaumobabble]

"Isn't it just?" Glass reports her daemon result to the rest of the peal and then dismisses the illusion.

Aurora bounces everything Jane tells her to Brilliance and Lexi both. [I'm not going,] she adds to all three, [but I'm gonna see what I'd get if I did.]

[lexicality]

[I wanna see what I'd get, too,] says Lexi.

[cardistry]

[I bet I know what I'd get,] laughs Brilliance, [and I'm not going anyway.]

[incanted]

[Yeah, you'd probably get the standard unsettled thingamabob. If devices can even have daemons,] says Aurora. [Do you want to come see what me and Lexi will get though?]

[cardistry]

[Yeah!]

He goes to where they are.

[incanted]

Square! Square!

Aurora gets an awesome kite.

[lexicality]

Lexi gets a nifty sorta pigeon.

"I might just want this anyway, it's cool," says Lexi.

[cardistry]

"Ooh, pretty," says Brilliance, hugging Aurora.

[incanted]

"Yeah, I don't want to have a daemon but it's nice to know what it would be if I did," grins Aurora. "Lexi, you should think really hard and talk to some people with daemons before you get one, but you can if you want."

[lexicality]

"Yeah, I know, I won't just scamper off to Alethia," says Lexi.

Rose notifies her husband. And Yseult too, why not, this even though she does not plan to go on the trip. [But it would seem that if I did, my soul would take the form of an orchid bee,] she adds.

[deslandes]

[Pretty!] says her husband.

[mindfields]

[I wonder what my soul would be,] says her daughter.

[beheld_beauty]

[You can find out with a square, if you would like.]

[mindfields]

[...My soul would be an enormous bird,] Yseult reports. [An enormous flightless bird with little fluffy wings. I do not want one.]

[beheld_beauty]

Rose laughs. [Then do not go to Alethia without a star protecting you from its existence.]

[mindfields]

She giggles.

Juliet tells her Sherlock what's up. [I'm gonna stay home,] she adds. [But apparently I'd get a tiger, if I didn't.]

[eversomuchfun]

[Of course you would,] he says, amused.

[cross_and_bow]

[Well, everyone else who's reported in so far gets something that flies, or at least a flying squirrel that can fake it. I guess a tiger is pretty neat though.]

[eversomuchfun]

[It suits you.]

[cross_and_bow]

[Stripy, carnivorous, and endangered, that's me.]
