To those who have been considering the PokΓ©ball spell for their hypothetical charges, I can confirm that the environment is both humane and relatively peaceful inside the device. The process of entering was no more jarring than a normal method of magical travel, and once oriented in the space, it felt no different than a physical location.

The experience may be somewhat different for a living creature, although I can say Calliope has taken to hers with no issue beyond seeming to want attention once she emerges, the same as Tootles.

I would be curious to hear from others who have acquired eggs from the void: have your hatchlings followed the expected growth cycle outlined in the guide? Or have you yet to hatch your eggs? The theory doesn't seem to be applicable to our charge, but I am interested to find how much of that information may prove accurate for future endeavors.

[Bellara]
Boo.

(It is a joke that wears thin easily, and yet I could not help myself.)

I was hoping to get your opinion on an idea I had struck with Professor Waugh, at your earliest convenience, miss.

I have no idea who ever said that but they were wrong. I think you could be way more sassy, easily.

I don't know if I'd call it awkward. I don't feel weird about you and Charles or anything. I'm just lonely, Edwin. It's not the end of the world, it doesn't mean we can't talk about things.

Suffocating is a good word for it.

I think talking is a couple of steps ahead of where I am. I haven't even let myself really think about it much. I've thought about who I am and why I was made but not about... the things she did.

Crystal, mainly, and only because she was often the recipient of the brunt of it.

[...] I will keep that in mind, Monty. Thank you.

From the little we saw, and the circumstances of her life, I can imagine it was quite awful. And the memories can often become rather immersive, at the worst of times.

From what I saw, she was your match as far as that goes.

Of course.

Really bad, yeah. If there was such a thing as, I don't know, karma or cosmic retribution or anything, you'd think the universe owes me three wishes or something for dealing with all that for so long.

I've been pushing away the memories. I think maybe you can only do that for so long though.

We had our fun. But she was trying to be a better woman, and I was 'holding her back in our mutually bitchy ways'.

Unfortunately, that sort of justice only exists if you can make it for yourself, I've found.

The few occasions I've had to sleep have proven that. Nightmares. I can only imagine how difficult that may be.

I still think I like your sassy side. I'd be sad to see him go.

Doesn't seem fair. I didn't make the trouble, but I've got to make the good? Incredibly unfair.

It's difficult. But luckily I don't have anyone in my bed to keep awake, right? Silver linings.

I doubt any of us will have to mourn that particular loss, with certain incorrigible faces around.

It isn't fair in the slightest. And I wish it weren't true. But I'm afraid it's the lot we've been dealt.

[...] That is one way to look at it, I suppose. Even if I know you mean to be flippant about it. Waking up alone.

I sure hope not.

Going to sleep alone, waking up alone. All the hours in between. I'm going to make everybody start loaning me their boyfriends to snuggle. Be careful of that lottery.

You'll rue the day you hoped, I'm sure of it.

I'm not sure Charles would appreciate my lending him out, as such. But I do sincerely hope you find that for yourself. I may have only recently learned how that feels, but it is its own kind of suffocation. That craving.

No rueing here.

It is. Thanks, Edwin. I guess I'll take you and Charles out of the lottery as a courtesy.

[...]

He is still rather cross about the whole affair. And can be somewhat jealous, in a way. But I

I know he has become a friend. If it were to help. And he was amenable. I'd bear you no ill will.

I appreciate that.

But I was just joking about the snuggle lottery. I don't think it'd help.

I'm going to apologize to him too.

Might it, though? I don't mean to be daft, but. I have found it helping me, in certain ways.

If you would like to, I believe it would be welcome. But between you and I, he knows he also reacted rather poorly to the situation. We all did.

I think it would just remind me of what I don't really have.

We all did. I was bitchy, he deserves an apology for that.

I suppose I can understand that.

That is quite reasonable of you, you know. For someone who just recently said he was struggling with his emotions.

Well I couldn't stop myself from being bitchy, could I? Got a long way to go, Edwin.

I think you're no likely to stop being bitchy than I am. And you're already far better at seeing when it's hurtful than I have been. I'd say you're doing quite well for yourself, Monty.

You're a hot British kind of bitchy, you get away with it.

But I hope I am.

Not everyone finds that to be an attractive quality, you know.

But I do think you are, for what that's worth.

I simply meant perhaps you may have something of a type.

I might. Then again, Wally is your polar opposite, kind of. And Eddie, actually, different from both of you...

I think it's possible I just really like men.

Or, possibly: the masculine, well-meaning but perhaps not overly intellectual type with good hair is your type, and I was just a mission the outlier. I can't say I blame you, my list skewed rather in the same direction.

I'd say you're masculine and well-meaning and I think your hair is nice. Maybe I just decided I should go for the less brilliant ones to improve my odds.

You think me masculine?

'Less brilliant'. Honestly, Monty, do not sell your tastes short. Or your own brilliance.
