[ Usually, Lennon wouldn't be caught dead looking like this on camera. His hair is a mess from sleep and he's pale, eyes red rimmed and generally looking like a complete wreck. He sniffles and lifts up a pretty mushroom. ]

My ... fae... turned into a mushroom... Does anyone know how to make him turn back?

[ He's going to be so mad at Daeshim later. ]

Please...?

Daeshim is from a world where he was with both Jasper and Baein in his forest.

Jasper is from a world where Baein is lost to him and I guess he hadn't meant Daeshim yet.

Baein is from a world where he's a prince and Daeshim is his guard and Jasper is his advisor...

They find each other in every world...

I'm not a part of that.

[diabolique]

You are now.

[privatechat]

It's different.

[ And the fear of being replaced at some point is hard to keep down as much as he and Daeshim have worked on it and he's in a way better place with than he was not long ago. ]

[diabolique]

How?

[privatechat]

It's different when people meet in world after world like it's... fate.

I'm just the fluke.

[diabolique]

(( He smiles gently. ))

If you believe in fate, it can't be a fluke.

[privatechat]

If it was fate then wouldn't I be in all those other worlds too?

[diabolique]

Not necessarily.

[privatechat]

How does that make sense?

[diabolique]

Fate brought you all here together, right?

[privatechat]

I don't know that it was fate.

[diabolique]

What else could it be?

[privatechat]

Coincidence. Or a fluke.

[diabolique]

There's no such thing if you believe in fate.

[privatechat]

Not everything is fate.

[diabolique]

That's not how fate works.

[privatechat]

Are you an expert on fate?

[diabolique]

Is anyone?

Fate's not just the big things, it's everything.

[privatechat]

I don't think everyone's important to fate.

[diabolique]

Probably not. But everyone has a fate, regardless.

[privatechat]

Most people don't matter, though.

[diabolique]

Matter to whom? Or what? Just because a person doesn't have a magnificent fate that will leave them remembered for a thousand years doesn't mean they don't matter. Someone somewhere cares about you. You matter to them.
