♛ 6th Curious Thought [Video]

[madcuriosity]

Jack! Jack Jack Jack! Doctor, Miss Tardis! And just... just anyone! [Alice is practically spinning never mind jumping and bouncing. She has drawings all over her walls of the three guardians she met.]

I met them! I met Father Christmas and the Easter Bunny and even the Tooth Fairy! I met them all and they're incredible and amazing and so much better than the stories ever said! Did anyone else get to meet them while they were here!

[She suddenly gasps although not in surprise but in excitement.]

AND HE KNEW! Jack, Doctor, Miss Tardis! Father Christmas knew! [Knew what is left unanswered but she's too excited to explain.]

THEY WERE HERE! I hope everyone got to meet them!

They're—

[No, Harry, don't ask if they're actually real.]

... Er, let me start again. Hello again. What were they like?

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

Hello, sir! It's nice to see you again! You got to stay, I see.

And they were all lovely, nothing like I expected and yet exactically so!

[Video]

[livedtwice]

Yes, I did. I'm glad for you. You helped a lot the other day.

And, well. How were they different?

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

I'm glad I could be useful, sir.

Well, Father Christmas is much bigger than I ever expected! I knew he would be bigger than me, but he's taller than many men here! Ah, and he has an accent! I didn't think he would but he does! He's so nice, that I expected, but he has writing on his arms! One arm says naughty, the other nice!

And the Easter Bunny was Australian! He calls eggs googies and lives in a big warren! And the Tooth Fairy looks like a giant humming bird who is so as big as Miss Hermione and not tiny like a normal fairy at all!

[Video]

[livedtwice]

The Easter Bunny is from down under ...

[That's muttered mostly to himself.]

Do normal fairies exist?

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

What... do you mean "normal fairies?" All fairies of any sort should be "normal" a fairy is a fairy.

[Video]

[livedtwice]

Can you tell me about them?

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

About fairies?

[Video]

[livedtwice]

Yeah, if you don't mind.

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

Oh I don't mind but, well, there's so much to tell. I'm not sure where to begin! I mostly know all the legends and the sorts. Ah but, ah... let me see...

Alright, the important thing to remember is that faeries live in the underground. That... doesn't necessarily mean under ground, but their home is called the underground! And time is a very funny thing there! There's a fairytale about a girl working for some fairies and when she returned home after her work was done, 400 years had passed!

[Video]

[livedtwice]

So faeries are not real but are real.

[He muses over that.]

It sounds like a reverse of being here, at least a little. I mean, that last story. We could be here for four-hundred years and no time would pass. I might've inferred that, though. You didn't say that, exactly.

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

I'm not sure I understand what you mean but "not real but are real" that's very contrariwise.

No, but sometimes it is like here. In another tale, well over a thousand years passed in the under ground and when the person came back home, not a day had passed. Time is a terribly tricky thing in the underground!

And there's two courts! The Unseely and the Golden Court, one has mean faeries who might gobble you up or look like scary monsters whilst the Golden Court has faeries that may... play more tricks and less about hurting anyone.

[Video]

[livedtwice]

Er, I mean, you're telling me what you've learned from stories. That's all.

video. t-threadjack?

[2cool4guardian]

They're real. R-e-a-l. Come on, repeat after me. Reeeeeal. It's not a hard word to say.

video.

[livedtwice]

Well, obviously, but there's noting wrong with it being a little surprising, is there?

video.

[2cool4guardian]

[Oh, Harry, you're making things to easy for Jack to tease.]

After being dragged here by a bunch of Norse gods? Dunno, maybe.

video.

[livedtwice]

If they were ... there where I come from, I reckon I would've heard about them already. They'd have to use magic, right?

video.

[2cool4guardian]

But you did hear about them, you just didn't believe in them. [That aside, Jack is giving Harry one very curious look now.] You know about magic?

video.

[livedtwice]

... You have a point. And yeah.

[A simple answer punctuated with a nod.]

It's different speaking about it obviously, but you're right. There are Norse gods.

video.

[2cool4guardian]

[...that's it? Believer already? That was easy! But okay, if Harry knows magic, maybe it makes sense he accepts it just like that.]

Why is different talking about it? Especially for you, if you had magic around.

video.

[livedtwice]

Not everyone had magic. And Asgard is nothing like the society of wizards and witches. Well, it's unique, just ... nothing like that exactly.

Though I also haven't been to Norway to see their community. Maybe it's more like this.

video.

[2cool4guardian]

Oh wait, you meant different to talk about the gods. I though you had problems with talking about Santa and the others as if they were real or something. Yeeeeah never mind then.

[He makes a pause to think after that. He has 300 years of memories to to though, you know.]

I don't remember meeting any witches from Norway, but I don't exactly look for them either. [Read: he avoids them since he pissed off one.] ...you are a wizard?

video.

[livedtwice]

Oh, no, I meant ... speaking about magic. I mean, it's not different within the society, but it is outside.

[Beyond that, he doesn't correct him. If Santa is real, he's real. Harry will accept that because he is starting to see that somewhere, that is ... likely true.]

And they exist in Norway, you know. They exist all over, but that ... that might just be my world.

[There's another beat.]

And yes, yes I am. Only calling yourself a wizard here doesn't do you much good.

video.

[2cool4guardian]

Definitely not just your world, buuut... yeah, I'm kinda getting what you mean. Lost the count on how many times I have to explain all the things that do exist since I arrived here. [Harry takes the first place for best accepting reaction, that's for sure. Jack could get used to this.

That comment leaves Jack mute for a moment, thinking it over. He has been having lots of identity issues thanks to the gods' depowering trick.] If you ever learn what people should start calling themselves now, let me know, we're going to need it.

video.

[livedtwice]

So there are wizards there, too? Interesting.

[And surprising, but he doesn't know a lot about all the worlds connected, so it does make sense that there'd be at least one.]

I suppose "travellers" doesn't cut it, then?
