[she colors at the praise, pleased]

Well...thank you. I'm sorry I didn't think of it before, I thought we had more time.

[kingsroads]

We'll simply have to make the most of the time we have! [ Strange is used to working under pressure, after all. Even if the pressure is self-imposed. ]

Now, what sort of spells do you wish to learn?

[stressingwitchface]

Oh Titan, I don't know. My spells and yours seem so different...

What was that necromancy thing you humans have?

[kingsroads]

[ There's a moment where Strange's face falters a bit. There's a moment as he decides what to say before settling on, ]

I can write out how to cast a spell to raise the dead if you wish. But personally? I wish I never cast that spell in the first place.

[stressingwitchface]

Oh.

Why not?

[kingsroads]

When you bring someone back from the dead, you take responsibility for them. Their life, their actions, they all rest on your head.

[stressingwitchface]

But what if it's someone you hate? What if you want to bring them back just to torment them?

[kingsroads]

Why would I do that? I'm alive and they are dead, I'm obviously doing better!

[stressingwitchface]

What if they died without suffering?! Without paying for everything they did to you?

[kingsroads]

But they are still dead! If there is an afterlife and they are looking at me from it, wouldn't the thing that would make them suffer the most is to see me successful and thriving and not giving a damn about them? And if there is no afterlife, then it does not matter to begin with.

[stressingwitchface]

I...what?

Really?

I just..never thought of it like that.
