after a brief pause, they reach into their robe and remove... a cloth dinner napkin with something in it. they offer it out to vira.]
[ dreamwidth give me my notifs. anyway, luminiera entertains judas and herself by poking at the cat with her many tendrils, making pleased chiming noises all the while.
vira is considerably more serious as she takes the napkin carefully, gingerly looking at its contents. ]
[ she carefully tucks the gift away with a grateful bow. ]
Thank you—I'll be curious to see if a situation arises where it'll be a good alternative to the pods. Hopefully if we're ever stuck in another 'adventure,' it could help.

However, I can only surmise it was an illusion to test your mettle.
[ they're right—it's almost certainly not real. so much of their experiences here are illusion, but something about this is difficult to let go all the same. a sort of grief that muddles her clearer thoughts. ]

May I ask what it is?

when she opens the napkin, there is a fancy, silver knife and a fork inside.]

No, I am afraid not.

I'll keep that in mind then.
[ on the bright side, the animals seem to be getting along swimmingly. ]
I do have another question for you, specifically. If you don't mind.
no subject
Very well. Go ahead.
no subject
Is there any possibility that you take us back to where we were?
[ she's healed, and she knows what to expect. if she could just do it all over again... maybe things could be different. ]

[they are all so funny, wanting to go back to this place for a girl they didn't want to eat.]
