Why not? What's he lacking to 'deserve' one?

From:

stressingwitchface

I don't know a thing about him and you just want to give away rare creatures of incredible power and resilience like they're candy!

From:

abrightboy

Okay; what's so great about them, then?

From:

stressingwitchface

Oh, you impossible creature.

Not only are they bonded to their owners, they're a companion, a best friend, and a powerful magic tool. Palismen will outlive their original owners if treated right. They will grow in size, have baby palismen of their own, but it takes hundreds of years. Do you know how many I know of who lived that long?

One.

Because Belos - a fellow human - realized that if you kill one of them, you can absorb their power and long life for yourself.

And you want to just give away my world's short supply of them, or just simply have the Admiral create them for you? What if this Edwin figures out you can bleed palismen of their magic? What if someone else here does? Does he have the strength to withstand someone attempting to steal or kidnap their magic?

I won't stand for it!

From:

abrightboy

But you don't want to keep it. Are you worried you don't have the strength to protect it? Because I think you've actually been displaying it this entire conversation.

From:

stressingwitchface

Don't be a fool, it doesn't suit you. Of course I'm worried I don't have the strength to protect it. Even with my own magic returned, I lack the physical presence to make myself a threat.

But that doesn't mean I want it harmed or taken by someone else!

From:

abrightboy

Then don't be a coward; it doesn't suit you. And don't lie to me like I'm stupid. That's what started this. Are you going to keep it?

From:

stressingwitchface

Yes! All right, Titan damn you, yes!

[three things happen in that moment, of which Kikimora only is able to notice one.

Her palisman is hatching. A new door appears in her room. And she disappears off of Malcolm Bright's device]

abrightboy

...Kikimora? Are... are you still there?

[He hasn't tried looking for her on his device since they're talking, but there's a weird noise and something is happening and he hopes she didn't throw the communicator like a chew toy for Princess to catch in her mouth.]

From:

stressingwitchface

[her voice goes small. Kiki's not in her room but she's brought the palistron egg to her vet office for safekeeping]

Ssshh. Shut up, I hear something moving.

From:

abrightboy

[That sounds ominous.]

Are you in danger?

From:

stressingwitchface

No. I don't...Hang on.

[sounds of her unlocking a cabinet and pulling a heavy drawer open]

From:

abrightboy

What are you doing? What's going on?

From:

stressingwitchface

I think the egg is breaking!

From:

abrightboy

I thought you had to do something to activate it!

From:

stressingwitchface

Yea! Obviously! You have to want something or, or SAY something! Something that’s true and…

Ugh! Warden Bright, this is YOUR fault!

From:

abrightboy

I promise I'm trying really hard to be sorry that I got you to say something true and.... and what?

From:

stressingwitchface

Oh shut up. Shut up, you always DO this!!

You tricked me into wishing I were brave and strong enough to protect a palisman, it HEARD you, and now I have some sort of…strange creature looking up at me!

From:

abrightboy

Tricked you into wishing you were brave and strong enough or tricked you in admitting that you are brave and strong enough? Can I see it?

From:

stressingwitchface

I don’t know!!

Fine.

Should I turn on the camera or do you wish to see it - HER - in person?

From:

abrightboy

Obviously in person if that's an option! I'll come find you...[He checks his device now and trails off. He has a suspicion about the timing of this now.]

Um... where are you?

From:

stressingwitchface

[too distracted by this strange creature, Kikimora doesn’t notice the strangeness of her warden asking that]

The vet clinic.

From:

abrightboy

Not your cabin, then?

From:

stressingwitchface

What? No. I’m at work, Warden.

[softer, presumably to the palisman]

Yes, well, calm down, you…creature, he’ll be here soon. No, im not going to “give you away!”

From:

abrightboy

Can you, um… bring the palisman to your cabin? It’s important.
