Six hours, fifteen minutes, eight seconds.

Time should not be this fluid, this in flux. It is unnatural. It ... hurts. What has happened to make it so?

[Guess who's been doing exactly the same?] I suspect the Twin's are responsible.

[great minds think alike?] Perhaps. This feels ... different, somehow. It feels twisted, but also like this nexus point we are in. They are connected, but I do not know that it is their doing.

Well, I can't feel it, but I'm pretty sure it's unusual for time to be so inconsistent.

It is painful, yes. There is no pattern, no reason to these fluctuations. Time should not flow like this.

You've noticed it too. It seems the effects of whatever is happening are universal.

I cannot do anything but notice it. It ... hurts, being surrounded by it as I am. Time should not feel this way. It should not bring me pain.

It hurts you?

Greatly. Time should not be in flux as it is.

Merely the whims of our gracious hosts~ I suppose it should be something to get used to.

Perhaps. I do not perceive myself as ... getting used to this, however. It is of great inconvenience.

Oh, I'm sure~ {She smiles~~, and I get to semi playercest, woo~~} Though, no more of an inconvenience than being caught in a spider's web, correct?

[pfft, it's fun! I do it with Lucy all the time~] ...I have no desire to discuss this with you.

{It's so weird thouuuugh. Plotting against your own characters, lulz} I believe it's the puppeteer that doesn't. I hold no animosity for the puppeteer nor pity for the puppet. I only offer my services to grant your wish, for whoever that may be.

[Lucy talked about beating up the TARDIS once. it made me sad ; ;] Perhaps. But this body requires no services from you, animosity or no. [yeah, she so actually wants to make a wish] There is a game to be played, after all. And I doubt you've the means to extract his strings, regardless.

You see, this is complicated~ If I take action to allow you to speak, then that'll just raise the price. I can't just assume things like that.

[intrigued!] Price? What kind of price? Out of curiosity, of course. Nothing more.

Oh, I charge for all of my wishes, of course. Yours would be quite expensive, considering the magic necessary. I would say that for freedom, another kind of prison would be equivalent.

Prison? What sort of prison are you suggesting?

You are a being capable of traveling between worlds and times, correct?

It is all that I am, yes.

Then for your freedom, I would ask your services to myself or my clients if they're ever needed. You would become an employee of my shop. Only part-time, of course~

...and for how long would you require these services? And how would I be of use to those not within my own reality?

Until your debt is paid. I can't tell you how long that will be, since I don't know that myself.

However, the world is infinitely large, you should understand this. The universe, the world, whatever you call the culmination of multiple existences, it's only as large as you think it is, or will be. Even for you, your understanding of the worlds, or even this Astral Plane, is only limited to what you see or think of as truth. So you will be of use, I can promise you that.

[huffs] Do not presume to tell me about the universe, child. I understand more than you might believe.

{Laughs} I'm not questioning your knowledge. We both know a great many things about time, space, and the concept of multiple existences, but we have very different views, I'm sure.
