['Sup, ADR. Today, there's a certain Fonon Sentience in here -- but he's appearing as a pillar of flame.]

[And...wait, what? He's standing behind a booth? A banner is hanging over his head, which says:

LORELAI'S SPECIAL SCORE READINGS -- FOR FREE TODAY ONLY!

And underneath that cheery caption, there's some fine print:

Disclaimer: the Score may or may not be just one of many paths -- decide on your own. So please, Those Who Would Seize Glory should go away.

[So what would you do, sweet, innocent, non-Van residents of the ADR? Ask for a Score reading? Try to kill him? Dump some water on him before he sets the ADR on fire? The choice is yours!]

[ O-oh boy. She reaches out to sort of offer the same gesture in return. Best handshake you can do in this case. ]

Never thought I'd see you like this again...

[ Er, no thanks. A few years worth of floating around the fonbelt was plenty of party time. ]

S..something like that. Might've been the glyph that wasn't quite right.

[The tendril twists and curls around your arm, then withdraws.]

Well, I am free of The One Who Would Seize Glory, after all. There's no reason why I shouldn't reappear on Auldrant.

Except this isn't Auldrant, is it?

[SADFAISE. Except he/she/it doesn't have a face.]

Oh dear, would you like me to try and patch you up?

Well, the you from my world wanted to be part of the fonbelt.

But yeah, guess that wasn't possible when we're not on Auldrant anymore.

[ At this she looks up at the sky for a moment before flailing again. Definitely no fonbelt here. ]

N-no, that's okay! I'm not sure Asch would like anyone messing with his handiwork! Um. Thanks for the offer, though.

Well, it does grow lonely sometimes in the fonbelt. Sylph is much too tempestuous to have civil conversation with, and looking down on your world is rather nostalgic...

[He's going off on an old-man-rambling tangent. Lorelai help us all -- oh wait.]

I really don't mind! Consider it an apology for all the inconvenience I have caused.

[Those creeper tentacles are slowly inching closer...]

You could always come for a visit...?

[ Gawds, this is so weird and wtf, though she does feel bad for him. Being a not!deity must be hard.

--ASDLFKJSD DOES A LITTLE BACKSTEP DANCE ~~WITHOUT SCREECHING~~ ]

NothanksI'mokayreallyI'mjustgettingusedtobeingagirl--! H-how about a Score reading instead?

I had forgotten how kind mortals could be.

[Baaaad experience with Van...But Luke(s) time is always good time!]

[Withdraws a bit and just sort of hovers at Luke's reaction.]

Well, why not? That is what I'm offering, after all.

[Pauses, and the flames burn even brighter for a few minutes.]

The Light of the Sacred Flame shall refuse pi's offer of assistance, and remain as she is unless mundane has a sudden whim.

...Wait, that sounds slightly strange...

Kind of depressing that Van was the first person you got to meet after being trapped in the Core for so long. Even if he was trying to help Auldrant.

[ That reading just earns a confused look; it almost made some sense... ]

...huh. I don't really get it, but it doesn't seem too bad.

The fonons of this world are slightly strange. That must be why neither of us 'gets it'.

[Sighhh.]

I do not agree with his ways. It is good that you have found another method of saving the world from the Score of Destruction. I am...indebted to you.

Everything here is at least sort of weird, so I guess Scores would come out jumbled too.

[ Aw, no sad Lorelei. 8( Have a... er, tendrilpat? ]

Y-you don't have to be. It was you and Yulia who made it possible for Auldrant to survive all those years in the first place.

[Brightens up a bit! Lucky he's not a 'real' flame, or you might've gotten singed.]

Your kind never ceases to amaze me. I do not think Yulia ever meant for my Score to be followed completely, but yet...

[ Literally and figuratively! So many fire jokes, so little time. ]

That makes two of us. People worked hard to follow the Score for their children's sake, and they were able to let go of it when the time came. I hope we've made Yulia -and you- proud.

You have. I could only wish there's something I can do to repay you for all that you have done.
