Okay, good to know. So the previous you didn't remember the threesome we had for my fiftieth birthday.

[physicalmagic]

How could I forget?

[proofofconcept]

With that youngish guy from the village, like 30 or whatever? Dark hair?

[physicalmagic]

He was beautiful.

[proofofconcept]

Not as beautiful as you.

[smoothness: achieved]

[physicalmagic]

Not as beautiful as you.

[proofofconcept]

Do you think we just kept getting distracted with each other and totally left him out half the time?

[physicalmagic]

I can totally see that happening.

[proofofconcept]

There's also...do you remember what happened to Ari? I remember her being gone and me being upset but not why?

[physicalmagic]

I think she uh, passed away, Quentin.

[proofofconcept]

Yeah, that's what I think too. Maybe related to pregnancy or birth with another baby?

[physicalmagic]

Probably something like that, sadly.

[proofofconcept]

Yeah. I don't know for sure, it's just a hunch. I'm sorry Teddy didn't get to know his mom, but. Not to sound sappy but he had you, so. Just as good.

[physicalmagic]

If you really think so. I would like to think it's not a high bar to pass to be better than my own dad.

[proofofconcept]

You were a good dad. You

[physicalmagic]

You were a wonderful dad, Quentin.

[proofofconcept]

I was hoping I'd get to do it again.

[physicalmagic]

There's still a chance.

[proofofconcept]

Not here. There's no kids here.

[physicalmagic]

Maybe we can make a wish to go somewhere else when they're done with us.

[proofofconcept]

I've...actually never thought about that.

I guess, I still had some hope I might not die until recently. So I had no reason to think about it.

It couldn't hurt to ask.

[physicalmagic]

I'm sorry, what did you say about the hope?

[proofofconcept]

What part? I didn't know I died until you told me, Eliot. I told you that.

[physicalmagic]

Oh Jesus I'm sorry, I forgot already. It's been awhile since you died, I kind of trained myself to forget about it. It's really rather selfish of me.

[proofofconcept]

[Quentin doesn't really know what to do with that. He can't say it's okay, really, not without making himself a liar.]

Well, like you said. We might be able to wish the fairies to send us somewhere else.
