If you end up with magical powers but you don't ever use them, except maybe on accident, that's not violating the Jewish prohibition on casting magic, right? It's fine, right?

As am I. Do you know of Lord Klaus?

[accidentallich]

I just met him on this post.

[clerics gonna cleric]

[gentledawn]

He is very kind and quite tall. I was not expecting someone so tall. [And, well, green.]

[accidentallich]

Everyone seems tall to me... I'm only 5'1".

[he is Tiny.]

[gentledawn]

I am nearly a foot taller than you. [Is that how the measurements work? Xingchen is almost 6'1".]

[accidentallich]

Oh wow, so someone you think is tall must be a giant!

[gentledawn]

He might qualify! But he is incredibly kind, so I felt no discomfort in his presence.

[accidentallich]

That's good. I know a little bit about unintentionally scaring people with your looks...

[gentledawn]

Surely it doesn't take long for your appearance to not matter? You speak so kindly.

[accidentallich]

Most people don't stay around that long. Or if they do, it's with torches and pitchforks.

[gentledawn]

I will not allow that. [His forehead furrows.] Shuanghua and I will protect you.

[accidentallich]

You're very kind. Everyone here has been, don't worry.

[It's going home that he has to worry about.]

[gentledawn]

I'm relieved to hear that. [Yet he can sense the unease...] Your home is not kind to you?

[accidentallich]

Not really. I try to stay out of sight as much as possible... I haven't left my apartment in a decade.

[gentledawn]

I wish I could go with you. I would change that for you.

[accidentallich]

Oh, no, I couldn't ask that of you. You probably have very important things to do in your own home.

[gentledawn]

I have dedicated my life to helping others.
