how are you feeling?

[It seems that perhaps we should speak,] Isibel says to Lycaelon. She wishes him a cup of tea, wherever he is, hovering in the air waiting for him to take it. [Though I confess I do not know where to begin.]

"...The closest comparison I can make," Lazarus says slowly, "is that in something like the way people's ingot powers and witchcraft and Gifts suit them, being a Wildmage suits Lissa. That's not quite it. But I can't think of a better analogy."

"I can," says Glass, "see why you'd be tempted to describe it that way... I want to look at another Wildmage who doesn't have anything weird going on, is there one I can pop in and peer at? Is Tianthonet's new Bondmate one?"

"Well, she's either a Wildmage or a High Mage," says Sherial, "and Wildmage is likelier."

"Do you suppose we can go stare at her without interrupting anything?"

"...I'll ask."

She does.

A moment later, she reports, "Tianthonet and Virgivere say it's all right if you bring them here to look at them."

Glass goes and fetches them. "Hi," she says.

"Hi!" says Tianthonet.

"Hello," says Virgivere.

And Glass commences peering at Virgivere.

(Elspeth catches up the new arrivals on Things.)

"Yes, see?" says Lazarus. He points at Virgivere. "Perfectly ordinary Wildmage." At Lissa. "Not perfectly ordinary. Perfectly something, maybe, but ordinary isn't it."

"It's..." Glass flares her aura, and squints. "Hooked into her Libbiness. Somehow."

"I'm not surprised," says Lazarus. "I'm the opposite of surprised."

"And to think," says Lissa, "before today I wasn't aware I had a Libbiness to hook into."

Glass laughs. "I have no idea what it's doing with your magic exactly, but it's sure something. And the - shininess - is related too, I think."

"Shiny Libbiness."

Sherial giggles.

"Yes," says Glass, "shiny Thilanushinyel-themed Wild-Magic-related Libbiness. My power is kind of frustrating sometimes. Elspeth, do you have anything?"

Elspeth opens her mouth and waits a moment, then shakes her head. "No pronouncements today, sorry."

"Oh, well," says Sherial. "If that's everything, my Bonded and I have some magic to go and do."

"I confess to some curiosity."

"No specific plans just yet," says Lissa. "I think I'll cast a scrying spell and see what the Wild Magic wants to tell me today."

She climbs up onto Sherial's back.

"I confess to large amounts of curiosity about that," says Glass. "You can brainphone Jane and she can tell me even after I've gone home to tell my wives about their dragon alts."

"I might," Lissa says cheerfully. "I can't promise anything. Some visions are private."

"Sure," agrees Glass.

"It has been good to meet you."
