It lurks. Oh how it lurks.

"Coins, yes. Where they come from, no. Wishcoins are made out of pain," she says to Orfeo. "The pain of the person making them, specifically. Which is why, in my experience, most people don't want to be mints."

"That's... uh. Do you... make... a lot of these, then, if you use them to duplicate pancakes?" Orfeo asks, looking at her plate uncomfortably. "That... could... be... challenging?"

From:

"The kind of coin that will duplicate a stack of pancakes is produced at about stubbed-toe level; it's not a big deal to make them, or I wouldn't spend them so frivolously. More powerful kinds need more, which is why until I met Bella and her inexplicable friend, I didn't use magic very often."

"My inexplicable friend is a masochist," says Bella sunnily. "And he's, mm, friendly, so while he'd take it as her hitting on him if she offered to help him make a pentagon, it'd result in a yes in my expert estimation."

"And - okay, I'm going to stop thinking about this if that's okay," Orfeo says, eyes flicking up and down Libby as though to confirm that she's probably not hiding any grievous wounds.

"Of course," she says, patting his arm comfortingly.

"Thanks." He puts his hand over hers on his arm for a moment, then goes back to his pancakes very deliberately.

"Aww," says Bella. "So is this the standard kind of imprint accompanied by kissing or the non-standard kind of imprint not accompanied by kissing?"

From:

"There has been no kissing," says Libby.

It seems... deliberately phrased.

From:

It really does.

"My brain isn't screaming at me to kiss her?" he suggests. "We're not sure what dictates that except that nobody wants to kiss little kid imprints. Whatever decides these things is undeterred by lesbianism and other forms of disinterest, and when someone stops counting as a 'little kid' seems to vary wildly."
