do: make introductions; don't: usurp the government

Tab goes home by door, right into Aelise's office. "Hello again."

"You didn't say if you were staying or going. You can decide later, if you want to just brainphone me if you need a lift."

[areyouabeer]

"You don't have better things to do than be the interplanetary taxi service?"

[giftedandtalented]

"I have lots of things to do, but I can do a lot of them all at once."

[areyouabeer]

"Because on the one hand, I want to climb those trees, and on the other hand, I want to get home sometime today."

[giftedandtalented]

"I really will take you back when you want to go back. If you don't believe me I can introduce you to someone else who can do it."

[areyouabeer]

He shrugs. "There's always Aelise, if I'm that hard up."

[giftedandtalented]

"Yeah, she can teleport now too."

[areyouabeer]

"Figured."

[giftedandtalented]

"D'you want a copy of the factsheet everybody got when I woke them?"

[areyouabeer]

"Sure."

[giftedandtalented]

Poof.

[areyouabeer]

That sure is a factsheet. He skims it idly.

"The thing about torching doesn't apply to you, but I can make it do if you like," says Tab casually. "Or Aelise can."

[areyouabeer]

"Any horrifying drawbacks I don't know about?"

[giftedandtalented]

"If you are stuck somewhere that will not stop trying to kill you, it gets a lot of tries."

[areyouabeer]

"That's not much of a change. Sure, hit me."

[giftedandtalented]

Tab flicks her fingers illustratively in his general direction. "You're all set."

[areyouabeer]

"That was easy."

[giftedandtalented]

"Yep. Very simple procedure. All you have to do is go to the underworld and receive it as a gift from she who commands the fundament of reality. Piece of cake."

[areyouabeer]

[giftedandtalented]

Tab laughs.

[areyouabeer]

Luhan snorts.

[giftedandtalented]

"No, I mean I did literally have to do that but it's pretty straightforward, I didn't have to beat her at chess first or anything."

[areyouabeer]

"And she gave you Toronto as a bonus?"

[giftedandtalented]

"Yep. And will supply any other departed people or things I want as long as I have my trusty way of moving them out of there."
