[leonheartedly]

Yeah - I see them, I can get 'em.

Out of the way, little idiots—[gently shooing the sheep away to grab them, then holding them out] Here you go.

[manwhofelltoearth]

[takes them with a grateful noise, blinking through the lenses as clarity finally descends]

Well. Hm. This is most definitely not the city.

[leonheartedly]

[a bit wryly]

Yeah, this is about as not-city as you can get. Welcome to the pasture.

[manwhofelltoearth]

[hopefully]

The pasture just outside Rome, right?

[leonheartedly]

Aha . . . no, though I wish we were now.

[manwhofelltoearth]

My boss is going to kill meeeeee.

[leonheartedly]

Even though you were kidnapped against your will?

[manwhofelltoearth]

She’s going to be mad I let myself be kidnapped! I’m going to get a pay cut again…

[leonheartedly]

Ahh, a rough boss . . . my condolences.

[manwhofelltoearth]

Terrifying woman. Absolutely magnificent, but terrifying all the same.

[leonheartedly]

Those are the best kinds.

[no, Tyr] There might be some saving grace for you - time might not be moving with you here. So you might get to avoid her wrath.

[manwhofelltoearth]

[tyr no]

Time’s not—what? That’s, I don’t know. That sounds like magic.

[leonheartedly]

Yeah, I know how it sounds. But we're in a magical bullshit world, so.

[manwhofelltoearth]

…

Can you do magic?

[leonheartedly]

Not normally. We're given magic here.

[manwhofelltoearth]

[that explains why he knows how to do a couple of things he absolutely could not before]

Like, all kinds of magic, or…

[leonheartedly]

No, just a couple of spells. It's specific to each collar.

[he reaches up to tap his own collar]

You've got a black one, which makes you a Weed. I know one of your spells is healing through insults.

[. . .] Yeah, I know how that sounds.

[manwhofelltoearth]

I’m a man of the cloth! I can’t just call people names!

[leonheartedly]

[he smiles a little]

There's more than one way to insult a person. It isn't just name-calling.

[manwhofelltoearth]

You mean like…insulting their dignity?

[leonheartedly]

Exactly. The more insulting, the more effective it is.

[manwhofelltoearth]

I don’t think I’m really cut out for this…

[leonheartedly]

I guess that would make sense, given . . . [a gesture at the priest garb]

[manwhofelltoearth]

Right? You see? I’ve been brought here to do things I’d have to go in a confessional about. Not the ideal!

[leonheartedly]

Already thinking of causing trouble, huh . . . are you gonna need Lily to set up one of their rites? I'm sure one of them can give you penance . . . they might actually know what that means, too.
