[ hm. ]

You're welcome.

[David's known a lot of people, he's been hurt a lot of times, and he's been cruel about it. Hell, that was a lot of his history with his best friend. He's done it himself. But that's not here or there.]

I'm still getting you house warming gifts. Just because I can. I don't get to do that often, and I like shopping.

[ his lips twitch. ]

They'd be welcomed.

Thank goodness.

[He's not paying NEARLY as much in rent now, with him and Balthier both covering costs. So spoiling his friends after all of this Fantastic stuff passes is going to be a priority.]

Any word on Sunset Falls? Is it going to be stable?

[ he nods. ]

It should, now that I've returned. I'll still need to check over some areas, but it seems to be going back to normal.

That's good. If there is one place prone to disasters that I've never learned how to properly help, it's Sunset Falls. Magic is just... Hard.

This sort of magic is familiar to me, at least.

[ he had drained the odinforce from his father in other to maintain asgard. it was no match for hela, of course, but he understood the roots of it. ]

I admit, even with Strange's knowledge, magic's just all... illogical to me. Though I suppose people say I'm a bit too machine like at times.

[ loki scoffs. ]

The magician's idea of magic is very . . . limited.

[Was it? How interesting.]

I mean, you'd probably laugh at my one use of it. I sort of scared an interdimensional parasite by making a meaningless hand gesture and shouting 'Exorcism' at them in a stilted accent.

That is what I mean.

People think magic is about rules or spells or vapid hand gestures.

None of those things truly matter.

I work better with rules honestly.

[ dryly. ]

That is not surprising.

[Yeah, he deserves that and chuckles.]

I'm learning to try and ignore them sometimes, when it's needed. I've had help there.

There is no shame in that.

It was hard to learn. But dating con men sort of helped.

[Not that he had expected to date con men.]

Perhaps that is how you changed.

[Maybe it is. He smiles and nods to himself.]

Love really is a changing force.

[ love, huh. loki glances at sephiroth. it's no surprise or secret and loki loathed hiding his feelings.

still, it's a surprise to hear it from others. ]

I suppose it is.

[David definitely doesn't miss how those eyes flick aside. And he was happy to see it.]

If you let it be.

I have no intention of letting things be.

I think that's a matter of confused linguistics. Love can be a changing force if you allow it to be so. That's what I was saying.

[ he frowns. ]

I've done plenty, I should think. It's not one-sided.

I believe you.

[With that he offers a brief nod.]

I am out of my beverage. Might be time for me to find a refill and let my host find more entertaining guests.

Of course. Enjoy the festivities.
