[ He's pulling Bradley into a clean stall and locking it behind them. ]

If you wanna check that bad, help me get outta this thing.

[ And if he says anything provocative Nero's going to lose it. ]

[perfectpower]

[He does not say anything. But his grin says he really, really wants to.

He will indeed help Nero get his arm out of the suit though. Apparently the zippers are in the back, awful.]

[perfectdistance]

[ Nero's already blushing getting out of this stupid suit.

Don't. Say. Anything.

He gets his arm out so they can both check on it. Yeah, the Sage's Mark is still right there. ]

So it is still there.

[perfectpower]

[He REALLY wants to say a comment about how it's been a while since they've done this.

But once he sees the Sage's Mark, all thoughts of being cheeky go right out of his mind.]

So it is.

Though I guess this doesn't really prove much, my mark didn't change between the previous Sage and the current one. Just that we're still Sage's wizards and we're gonna have to fight the Great Calamity still.

[perfectdistance]

[ He is not hooking up with his... Ex? Former ex? Former boss?? (complicated) In the stall of a very public bathroom.

Nero pulls the suit back on and waits to get zipped back into it. ]

Figured. We'll get home, deal with the Great Calamity and then kill Figaro 'n the twins.

[ Then Bradley will set him free of life for once and for all. Thank you. ]

[perfectpower]

When we get home. They put us to sleep for traveling, there's no telling how far away from home we are.

[Maybe they're taking the fight to the moon itself?]

[perfectdistance]

Somebody said they were from Japan. So. I dunno where we are in relation to home.

[perfectpower]

We had lots of sages from lots of different worlds in the past, so all those worlds exist. I thought about tryin' to sneeze my way home but that won't work.

[Because he would have to leave Nero behind and he Refuses.]

[perfectdistance]

[ You can just grab Nero and sneeze, it does work... Or it would normally work. ]

Does any of your magic work here?

[perfectpower]

Nah. I tried using it, but nothing. That's why I don't think sneezing will work either.

[perfectdistance]

[ Frowns. ]

Don't remember making any promises?

[perfectpower]

Not besides the one I made when I got locked up.

[A pause, and then he looks Concerned..]

You don't think this is breaking that promise, do you?

[perfectdistance]

If you sneezing away all the time doesn't count, this shouldn't either.

I can't use mine here. So... I don't think that's it.

[perfectpower]

Yeah. You haven't broken any promises for sure, so yours should be working just fine. There must be a magic dampening thing here.

[perfectdistance]

They don't want us breaking out...? Or is it something else?

[perfectpower]

Maybe some of the others are too rowdy with magic and would blow this place up.

[Some of the others. Like Bradley wouldn't do this.]

[perfectdistance]

Like you wouldn't.

[perfectpower]

I'd at least save it for important moments.

[perfectdistance]

You'd use it to break open a door.

[perfectpower]

Not unless it was important to break that door!

[He tried to punch a window already.]

[perfectdistance]

No fuckin' wonder they ain't giving us our magic.

[perfectpower]

You could at least be glad it's not Mithra or Owen here.

[perfectdistance]

I don't even wanna imagine either of them here.

[perfectpower]

Exactly! I'm not gonna cause problems here.

[He will probably cause problems before week 0 is done.]

[perfectdistance]

[ No.

Nero knows him far too well. Bradley will cause some sort of problem before the week is out. ]
