Me and My Best Friend Put On A Show That Would Make Freya Totally Jealous [closed post]

Magnus wakes up, normal again except for how he's in an unfamiliar room. Not Galahad's old room, either. A nondescript one that, as far as he can tell, just has a bunch of clothes and stuff. Also he's wearing silky pajamas he'd never pick out automatically on his own?

It doesn't take long for him to feel like the walls are closing in on him. It's out of respect for Aornis that he stumbles out of her room through the door (barefoot and in the silky pajamas) and goes outside the normal way. Once outside, he flops into the snow, calling summer and feeling the way the snow steams against his skin as it melts.

He's not feeling totally regular again when he sits bolt upright, remembering that Drosera is probably in Galahad's old room with two people that aren't Magnus or Galahad. Existential crisis over, there's a child to retrieve! And hopefully, he'll run into Galahad in the halls.

A little shrug. "It was warmer in Tress' body. I think mine gets more cold."

"They are," he agrees, without hesitation.

"Let the buyer beware." What he actually says is caveat emptor, but. Translation.

Galahad has all the questions, every single one, but what he eventually asks is, "Why?" as in why do you ask?

Oh, it's a joke about ratings. There are enough pieces of that that make sense, and he's quiet for a few moments before he says, "Five of ten, it's there. Adequate."

"No one told me about this before I was born. Deceitful practices on the part of the merchant."

"Glad I'm not a squirrel; too much quarreling. Eight point five of ten."

Drosera hops off his shoulder and down to the floor, tail lashing, and begins preening her pinfeathers -- she spreads out one of her wings to do so, and while it looks pretty skrunkly right now, there's a sense of how broad and powerful it will be when the flight feathers are grown in.

Galahad, meanwhile, sits on the side of the bed to watch her.

"Some birds can do tricks," thoughtfully. "Once a raven followed us and traded things with Percival."

"Pieces of string and nails and a copper ring. Percival said they were gifts. He gave it meat." He rubs his watchband. "He said ravens are the cleverest animal because of Brân Fendigaidd."

"A king in old Welsh stories. Percival said his mother used to tell him all the stories when he was a boy."
