adelita suggests the body of a stillborn baby.
no. that's too much. nico tells her so.
she thinks for a moment. what about an animal? would he be opposed to that?
now he thinks. they're pushing boundaries, but what could it hurt?
adelita reminds him that Charlotte was only 15 when she was murdered. it wasn't fair. didn't she deserve to live?
he agreed.
adelita smiled. an animal. a big animal, with sharp teeth and claws, since all charlotte ever wanted to do was protect the two.
this, nico was willing to go along with. but adelita wasn't done.
an animal's body isn't meant to last more than a few years. the next step is to find a witch, one with the ability to have a familiar as well as the ability to age slower. or create one.
nico was confused. why?
adelita explained, because a familiar gets a portion of its partners abilities. because it would let charlotte live much longer.
okay. but what does she mean, create one?
adelita hesitates. -
witches are constantly at war with one another. they're struggling for power.
nico doesn't understand.
adelita pauses again, unsure if she should continue. charlotte's ghost is lingering nearby. she can feel her. she goes on. for the child that died for her.
they kill each other because they can take the power of other witches that way.
nico blinks. what is she suggesting?
adelita keeps going, pushed onward by the debt she felt she owed. they could find a witch to support. trade their labor to make charlotte that witch's familiar. help them kill off the witches necessary to give them the power they need. -
nico wants to be horrified. he wants to be afraid. he wants to tell her this is wrong. but he can't justify it. charlotte died of a gunshot wound to the head at 15. she gave her life to protect two small kids from a robber that didn't know how to respond to the wailing of frightened children. their mother died in dimilar circumstances. death was a common theme in their world. and now, to trade the lives of strangers for charlotte's life back? he can't bring himself to feel anything but numb.
this will work? he asks.
adelita looks taken aback by his apparent lack of response, but nods. she's done all her research. she knows they can do it.
nico hesitates, but only for a moment. he agrees. -
