As First Bound, or F.B. as Julia calls me, I once again feel compelled to write about her and Felix.
I write not to record what is said between supernatural beings in this arrangement of our lives, but to make certain everyone in the future understands the gravity of this exchange.
***
In the beginning, Felix said: "We need to talk about Nafisa, and what she's been up to."
"At least she believes in me, Felix, not in just some metaphorical sense - like you."
"I'm sorry, Julia, but you've been spending so much time with her, I don't think you see-"
"Don't tell me what I see, and what I don't see. You convinced me to start hacking again."
"Yes, and you have gotten a lot of true believers as a result. Still, to get back to Nafisa..."
"Spit it out, Felix. If you're here to slander her, you'd better give me a lot of specifics."
"Nafisa has a hidden agenda, to be blunt."
"You have an agenda. When I'm not hacking, you have me levitate objects and create fireballs."
"That's for your own good. You have to practice for 'The Battle of the Divinities,' you know."
"I know what that's all about. I'll have to battle another goddess in combat, and maybe lose..."
"You mean, you have to lose. You promised the goddess Loviatar that you'd throw the match-"
"I know, I know. I told Loviatar, Goddess of Pain, I'd let her win, but I'm rethinking that."
"Oh, boy. I'll tell F.B. to come and talk with you. That's more in his wheelhouse. About Nafisa-"
"She's a devoted nineteen-year old. In a span of one year, she's come up with many innovations."
“But she’s also having other people wash her feet, massage her feet, kiss-”
“I’m sure it won’t go to her head. She’s a hard worker and experimenting sexually is all.”
“As you say, Werewolf Goddess. Yet, it is like these other people are worshipping her, not you.”
“It will all work out. In the meantime, introduce me to some of the people who are doing these foot things.”
“As you wish.”
