roller coaster

Harley turns five. That means that it is time for the much-anticipated trip to the world's largest amusement park. They can stay an extra day if he doesn't see everything he wants to see the first day, but as he doesn't really go in for naps Elspeth thinks he'll probably get to try all the rides on his birthday proper. (Well, not the date of his birthday - Aurum was not synced to his universe of origin even before Jane went down again; he is really five years old now but it is, in Aurum, late April).

Right near the entrance to the amusement park is a very, very big roller coaster, with a loop that swings all its dangling passengers around at sixty miles an hour right over the entering guests. They scream. (The riders, not the entering guests. Yet.)

Elspeth is carrying Harley on her shoulders, and buys them tickets.

"I love you too, Harley."

She departs the park via the normal exit, because they log visitors to prevent people hiding in the park overnight, but once they're out of the park and out of sight, she teleports them home and puts Harley to bed.

Where he curls up and happily goes to sleep.
