[OOC: this is for Be Careful What You Wished for. Simon asked for his daughter back. He didn't specify for how long, enjoy seeing what he's like in a good mood while it lasts]

This generally isn't the sort of thing I would do, but I find myself needing some solid proof I'm not dreaming so it was well worth the time I spent working out what I was doing.

No one needs to keep their eyes open for the most perfect girl on my account any longer, even though she's refusing to show anyone but me her face. I'm afraid my August can be quite shy at times, she's like her mother that way. A mother who will probably be upset with me for presenting our daughter to strangers like this if I ever face her again, but this might be the first time I haven't been scared of my wife's anger.

	I guess you make a good point. Even here, magic isn't exactly trusted. I try to not judge, but....to be honest, my parent's never thought too kindly about magic. Just...stories. I promise, no burning will happen aboard the ship, though. We need to find this person and talk to her. Soon. As in now. Are you prepared to go back to the planet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

An easy promise for one man to make for others. But given our small numbers, one I can believe. But there is a reason I have done my best to be discrete in the markets and such.

'Talk to her'. By which you mean question her means, or ask for my payment back. Neither of which is likely to end well for anyone, not just myself. Anyone with the power to retreive a girl none had seen for as long as my August was missing, you do not 'talk' to them. You ask, you bargain, you come to an arrangement or don't, and then you leave if you value keeping the shape you hold or your current inventory of organs. As I said, I have traded away greater things. I have lost nothing that matters, and fail to see how it should matter to you.
