279 - We Gotta Stop Doing This

2021

        Lu               Cammeo          Lithium       Esmodonti     Racolo

Monday afternoon in the kitchen …
















LU:

… Harmonia and my niece will be coming soon, and I received a message
from the Elvin court stating that Fin will be returning to us shortly …





















CAMMEO:
Oh! Oh dear …
















CAMMEO: 

… Hullo Lithium. 


LU:
How did he get here?


CAMMEO:
He blinked in.


LU:

He’s magical? Why was I not notified?





















CAMMEO:
I suppose we forgot about it. He hasn’t done this in quite some time. 


LU:

Racolo shouldn’t allow this. What if your arms were full?


CAMMEO:
Well, no one wants to restrain his magic, 

and he only blinks to me when … 





















CAMMEO:
… Oh dear, Es mentioned she was off to Magick School
to speak to Racolo.  They must be having a disagreement.  
















LU:
No doubt. I certainly  don’t need to do the odds on that possibility.


CAMMEO:
Poor little dear, did your mama and daddy upset you?


LU:
There’s a simple solution to his blinking. He could wear an amulet
that binds his powers when Racolo isn’t able to monitor him.
Then it can removed when he can be safely supervised. 


text message sent to Racolo:




Earlier in Racolo’s office at Magick School …














ESMODONTI:
… Nooo !


RACOLO:
Lithium stop!
















ESMODONTI:
Mon Dieu, where’d he go?


RACOLO:
If I had to guess I’d say  he blinked  to Cammeo.





















ESMODONTI:

And what if he didn’t? He could be anywhere.
Why’d you go and scare him off like that?
















RACOLO:
How did I scare him off?


ESMODONTI:
If ya hadn’t yelled at me - he’d still be here.


RACOLO:
I didn’t yell at you!
















ESMODONTI:
Sure ya did. You got that tone in your voice like ya always do …
















RACOLO:
It’s Lu,  he blinked to Cammeo. 


ESMODONTI:
Is he OK?


RACOLO:

Yeah, he’s fine.
















ESMODONTI:
Oh, good. 
































RACOLO:

We gotta stop doing this.


ESMODONTI:

Ya mean the fighting? I know, but how? 
















RACOLO:

Let’s go out, just the two of us.


ESMODONTI:

You wanna take me out?


RACOLO:

Isn’t that what I just said? 


ESMODONTI:
Yeah but …
















RACOLO:
But what? Why do always have to make everything so difficult? 


ESMODONTI:
There’s that tone again …


RACOLO:
There’s no tone …










































RACOLO:

OK, maybe there was a little tone.  Let’s make this easy,
just give me a yes or no.  Do you want to  go out with me?
















ESMODONTI:
Yes.


RACOLO:
Great.


ESMODONTI:
When?


RACOLO:
Friday night.


ESMODONTI:
You’re on.



Lithium is safe, here, with Cammeo. 

You and I need to discuss his blinking.
