[Charlie doesn't even look bothered by what she's about to do, even if she is going against everything she believes in. However, she was doing this for someone she loves. So she regrets nothing.]

Hi. I'd like to discuss a trade, please.

Hi. I guess you would.

Re: || Deity Filter ||

My husband recently spoke to you about a spellbook from home. Before he traded the egg for it, we talked about what else he wanted to trade it for. One of his other choices was a wooden dragon his father gave him.

I think my husband should have both. Now, I know he could only have one but I'm willing to trade for the dragon.

This isn't going to be one of those Gift of the Magi things, is it? I hate that story.

Yes, you can get the dragon--depending on what you offer.

Re: || Deity Filter ||

[charring]

I sure hope not. That'd be awkward.

What do you want? I can trade memories.

|| Deity Filter ||

[laszlo_jamf]

I know, wouldn't it? And yet, such things come to pass.

I like memories, provided they're of value. I don't need your memories of going to the grocery store last week, for instance, unless, for some reason, it was significant. Which, of course, it might be.

You take my meaning.

What do you offer?

I'd say my parents but there's not much there that's really happy. That doesn't seem worth it.

[A pause. A shaky sigh and then, with determination.]

The couple that took me in after I escaped the Shop. I was happiest with them. I can trade those for a while.

[laszlo_jamf]

And how long is "a while?"

|| Deity Filter ||

[charring]

A month. [That's how long Merlin traded away memories of Gaius, right?]

|| Deity Filter ||

[laszlo_jamf]

Cool.

A month's possession by me (Prof. Dr. Laszlo Jamf) of aforementioned memories for the sake of aforementioned dragon to be returned to you...

Just in time for Christmas.

We can do this.

Come by the office to sign the paperwork. Given the current rate of trade, I think, perhaps, you could even leave with said dragon today. If you so choose.

Re: || Deity Filter ||

[charring]

Okay. I'll be there soon. And I'd appreciate leaving with the dragon.

[Weird way to get someone a Christmas gift but this is Charlie. So.]

[laszlo_jamf]

Oh, you're more than welcome.

[ooc: As established, the Deities will get her memories of this "foster" couple for a month, but she will get the wooden dragon. This trade can go through any time hereafter that you'd like. Have fun!]
