Dirk is sobbing

"Uh..."

"Shit, ain't no one seen that or I'll murder em" A snap at the voice. He thought he was alone

Grunt.

"SHit, not my fault, it was this stupid recording... I don't even LIKE the song"

"Course not." Regardless of ping.

Actually, it was ..true? Interesting

"I'm going for a walk." Dagmar says it as a statement to no one in particular, but it may be an offer.

"Sure sure.." He puts the recording made at the studio aside. The words 'Lydia Wayburton' on it

And he follows her "I'll go along in case you need back up"

"Cool."

She tromps ahead. Dirk can keep up.

And he follows along, "I'm serious, I don't know what caused that"

"The song?"

"Yeah, " He says baffled "Shit , It's like one of the weaker songs on the movie..." A beat "Which I only saw because Cleo hogged the TV " Now THAT Is a lie

"Mmph."

"Recording said it was Lydia."

"Oh, can't be anything special then, she's not one of us"

Brow.

"She's kin."

"Well, yeah, but not KIthin"

"So?"

"I'm saying not like she's got the magic satyr voice or nothin"

"So?"

"Soooo she's not a changeling not one of us"

"And? That means she can't make music that means something?"

"Well, sure she can, I mean, like any other mortal can learn to Sing but it still don't make sense I'd be moved by 'Waiting for a miracle' when 'Surface Pressure' 'And we don't talk about Bruno' were so vastly fucking superior"

Brow.

"Humans make glamour."

"Humans write songs."

"Shit, Stephen King's human, and I know you like that movie with the trucks."

"Yeah, that was fun" He admits "Okay so you're saying Lydia's a dreamer?"

"Might be. Wouldn't be surprised."

"Huh, shame'ss Zane's not here"

"Why?"

"He's her brother, think he'd wanna know, maybe coudl guide her"

"Mmph."

"He's moved. And he's family."

"She might do better with a different changeling."

"Like how that redcap was a bad fit for May." A pause. "She would be a GREAT fit for a different Dreamer, though, yeah?"

"Oh, that redcap in Cali? What's her name? I think May's dreams were pretty cool all Castlerocky but I get it's no good if she's gonna drug herself. Yeah, Calicap needs herself someone naturally angrier "

"Yeah. Maybe you and me, we go find her someone, so she leaves May be."

"Still - Lydia?"

"Okay. Who do you think should muse Lydia then? Sure ain't me"

"Mmph." Thinking.

"...Gerd?"

"Huh, Gerd is her age and I think has been a friend to her but they kind of drifted a bit when Gerd got that emmisary job... also Lydia isn't always enchanted so she forgets some stuff. Still, might work. You're storm now, order her to do it"

"Not gonna order that."

"Heh, you're missing your chance" A grin

She shrugs.
