Dad has a habit of, ah, making himself the target of useful experiments. I'm sure he has something you can talk to.

@Source

I don’t know how much of a benefit it would be unless it can do a little more than just talk.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Would it help you if I could find something very close to dad for you to talk to?

@Source

*Raises an eyebrow*
What do you mean by that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Er, I mean on what you want to talk about.

@Source

Oh. Well, other than the warning that was too late, there’s… Hmm, how much can I say?… There’s a person of mutual interest out there that it would be best to track down sooner than later, especially while we know where they are.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Hm... do you have any details on what it was? Maybe I can help.

@Source

I want to know what it was, but I don’t. It would tell me how to help.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Does she have any idea of what's going on or where he is?

@Source

I wish. I really do. I was hoping to talk about some important things if he was available, but, you know…

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Of course! Can I get you anything to eat or drink?
*Picks up the stack and steps inside, while the few pages that the wind carried into the distance seem to be blown through just as the door closes*

@Source

I don’t really want to get too comfortable. The way Zoey was talking, it sounded like she felt there was imminent danger, not danger already passed.

*Holds the door open*
Then please, come in. I don't want to leave a friend out in the heat.

@Source

*Nods as the brown aura on the ground is dispelled, glancing down at it as though I had forgotten about it before walking in*
Thank you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Nods knowingly*
I understand. You're a friend of his?

@Source

*Ponders for a moment*
I think it’s worked itself in that direction, yeah.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Furrows my eyebrows*
How's that?

@Source

Long story. Cosmic connections of recent development, we’ll call it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*The corners of my lips turn down*
The systems here are so convoluted, it's really hard to tell what he is or isn't doing. I at least know that the magic used to power these labs is still out there somewhere. I couldn't tell you much beyond that, though.

@Source

Well I can say with confidence that I think he’s alright… In case there were any doubts anyway.
