[cacophonish]

Oh. [ his face falls, as does his shirt. ] Why not?

[palfriday]

... [lowers hands]

Because some things are just gone forever, and there isn't any way of getting them back!

[cacophonish]

[ there's a piece of Bash that's gone forever. a wanted, beloved piece, that was all his, and Jeff feels a little knot twist in his stomach as that begins to sink in. ]

Right. Got it.

[ he pets the furby for moral support. ]

But people get new things all the time, too. So... why can't he?

[palfriday]

[pause]

New is easy. Old is hard.

[cacophonish]

Is it because the old stuff is all wrapped up in memories and expectations and sentiment, and the new can just... be?

[ at least, he's trying to understand in terms of the magic he's used to, back home, and its own rules and general... vibe.

because if he understands more about this, HE CAN FIND ANOTHER LOOPHOLE-- ]

[palfriday]

[pauses, cocks head.]

... I don't really know! I don't actually know a whole lot about magic to begin with...

[cacophonish]

Oh, my bad. I just thought, 'cause this whole place is so-- [ He waves his free hand vaguely and a touch whimsically, as if to say MAGIC. ] --and you do so much, that... [ He wrinkles his nose. ] I guess it's dumb to assume that means you're a magic expert. I mean, like, I do so much stuff that I totally don't understand the ins and outs of, myself, so.

[ He chews on his lip for a moment. ]

Is there really nothing that can be done for him? What if... if I got, um, a drawing all done up, something totally new, and... it'd just be like. Press on, magical transfer. Voila?

[palfriday]

... Well, if giving someone a magic tattoo is a thing you can do, you can definitely try doing that!

[cacophonish]

Oh, I mean, I can't. At most it'd just be, um, an illusion. It'd totally disappear. That's why I was hoping... [ He grimaces. ] What if I asked the Captain?

[palfriday]

He'd tell you the same thing, except he'd be really mean about it!

[so.]

Why don't you just try a real tattoo? That sounds much easier and much less perilous!

[cacophonish]

I would, I just didn't think-- [ "Didn't think." The source of so many of Jeff's problems! ] --there was anyone here who, like, had the gear or whatever. Though I guess all you need is a needle and some ink, I mean, that's what my buddies did back home, but--

Wait, do we have a legit tattoo artist here? [ Oh no, he's looking hopeful again! ]

[palfriday]

... Um. None that I can think of!

[this does not seem like a situation where adding blackbeard would help.]

[cacophonish]

[ Jeff groans and slumps over the desk in a puddle of despair. The furby says some gibberish, clearly echoing his disappointment, and not merely responding to being turned upside-down in the process. ]

This blooowwwwssss....

[palfriday]

[...

pat pat...]

It's okay... You can always try to think up something else nice to do for him...
