delta v over delta t when there is no t

[ertia]

In a bar, there is a girl.

She looks like she has saved up all of her decadent and slothful impulses for a solid decade and is indulging them all at once. She is sprawled on a couch with a book she's only half-reading, and an ice cream sundae, and smiiiiiiling.

'Door' sounds... biped-sized. I am not biped-sized. Will there be room?

[ertia]

Yes.

[pythbox]

Can you bring my Bondmate as well?

[ertia]

You already have one? Are they also on board with maybe moving to another universe?

[pythbox]

Did the Wild Magic not tell you that?

[ertia]

The unicorn representing the Wild Magic did not mention it.

[pythbox]

What a curious oversight.

[ertia]

"Liselen, you didn't mention this dragon was already taken."

[pythbox]

"What? Are they? How'd they manage that? You'd think someone would've noticed... and the Wild Magic didn't say anything... I'm confused."

[ertia]

"Perhaps we should resolve this confusion before introducing the hermit dragon to Jewel. Why might the Wild Magic not have noticed? Or did I find the wrong hermit dragon?"

[pythbox]

"No, now I am even more confused," he says. "You didn't find the wrong hermit dragon. The dragon and their Bonded are the same person as each other, and also sort of the same person as Jewel but differently. Does that make any more sense to you than it does to me? Because it doesn't make very much sense to me at all."

[ertia]

"...No, that makes no sense at all."

[pythbox]

"It does explain perfectly why the Wild Magic didn't mention it before, because it said there was a dragon that wouldn't mind doing the things, and the way it said it definitely also included other people who are the same person as that dragon. I just wasn't expecting there to be anyone like that."

[ertia]

"Does any of this make sense to you, person who there can be more of?" Kithabel asks Jewel.

[no_return]

"...I'm not sure?" he says. "But now I'm really curious to meet them?"

[ertia]

Hermit dragon, the Wild Magic is not capable of being very clear about basically anything. Can you perhaps tell me more about the situation about your bondmate and why the Wild Magic/unicorn interface might be at a loss for words?

[pythbox]

Did it tell you that my beloved and I are one person in two bodies?

[ertia]

Something like that. It says the person who I'm planning to make omnipotent is more of you.

[pythbox]

That does explain why we would not mind Bonding to them.

[ertia]

It does. But it does not explain why the Wild Magic is having such communication difficulties.

[pythbox]

I don't know anything about the Wild Magic.

[ertia]

Me either but I'm hoping you might know if there are any other weird things about you that the unicorn would have a hard time knowing how to relay.

[pythbox]

Plenty, I'm sure.

[ertia]

Can I get your top three guesses to start? I don't want something weird to screw up the omnipotence project because I didn't ask enough intrusive questions.

[pythbox]

My beloved is Endarkened. Ask your unicorn about that.
