,,,,,Storytelling is a microcosm of living, because it is a disaster of decisions. Each word is plucked from the millions of options in your language like stars out of the sky. You must reach, squint, gather all of your courage, to make thousands of little [[decisions]].

This is rebirth. To be only exactly who you wanted to be. Reincarnation, rooted from the Latin //incarnari//, "to be made flesh." //Caro// is flesh. It comes from //sker//, "to cut." From which also comes scar, skirt, scrape, shirt, cortex, carnal.
To trace back human like reincarnation returns you to water, water of sea, of womb, now here in front of you, not quite water.

<<if $choice gte 1>>You know now of the liquid consecration. You feel more prepared, this time, as you approach.<<endif>>

You stand at the edge of a wading pool, an oasis glowing against the trap of the night. It is filled with <<cyclinglink "$pool" "golden honey" "the bluest vaporwave water you've ever seen" "sweet yarrow milk">>.

You dredge into the achingly parting liquid, submerging yourself like a flower in resin, stuck like a hero to their fate. Your blood rushes in a swarm, a reaping bundle of thorns buzzing into the neighboring hive, pillaging the honey of that hardworking colony. In terror, your body sings with <<cyclinglink "anger and dreams" "proclamations of gold" "desire for truth">> and you emerge on the other side of the pool like a scabbard cradling a sword. There's a [[stamp of a beehive]] on your skin, dripping beneath your collarbone.
A [[woman]] enters the coma black of the oasis, gauzy dress trailing, hem sticky with honey.<<set $shoney to 1>>
<<elseif $pool eq "the bluest vaporwave water you've ever seen">>
That water that ripples without motion, exuding a constant aura of energy, parts tenderly as you step forward. Only the bottoms of your feet dampen, despite the tight walls of water swirling around you. Tendrils every now and then reach for your hands. Your ears catch an insistent hum--catch you in a calmness, a diffidence.
When you reach the other side, the water crashes back into its place and it was like you never passed through, never answered the water's breath. Marks sting the length of your fingers, marks like [[ripples across the fists]] you clench and unclench, testing, remembering.
A [[woman|woman2]] enters the coma black of the oasis, gauzy dress trailing, hem damp. <<set $swave to 1>>
<<elseif $pool eq "sweet yarrow milk">>
You step once into the milk and it is so warm, the scent so creamy and inviting, you sink to your knees. Bliss overwhelms you, and you wish you could remain in the pool, forever, dunking your head and letting the milk run down over your neck and eyelids. Your heart fills with a sense <<replacelink>>of safety, of longing, of tenderness.<<becomes>>of safety, of longing, of tenderness--but also of coercion, of guilt, of illusion.<<endreplacelink>>
You peer at the opposite edge of the pool. In small strides, you crawl toward it, milk rising until you are walking straight-backed, still submerged to your neck. You continue until you emerge from the pool, still standing. A [[tight fist of yarrow]] has appeared on your stomach, a bold sigil against skin running with rivulets of white.
A [[woman|woman3]] enters the coma black of the oasis, gauzy dress trailing, hem damp and sweet. <<set $syarrow to 1>>
<<endif>>
<<nobr>><<if $choice gte 1>>You notice as you examine your new sigil that the old one still adorns you, bright as the day you received it.
You send a wondering gaze at the woman and she informs you--only the first time can be perfect. No matter how many times you change, how perfectly you wash yourself in the pool of your consecration, there will always be lasting marks. To wipe your memory as well is a breach of ethics. You carry yourself, always.<<set $choice to + 1>>
<<elseif $choice eq 3>>Your new sigil is prominent, but you cannot help but feel your old sigils like burns on your skin. You wonder if they are vengeful, or sad, or tired. You wonder if rebirth is right, but are also so happy to have been reborn.<<set $choice to + 1>><<endif>>

Children with the honey sigil go to the creeping grasslands--the places that were once farmland, now little by little being seeded with buds from nearby forests, delicate stalks of young trees rising from dirt-ash.
You are called a child despite being knowledgeable of choice, despite being culpable. This is to aid the [[assimilation of your reincarnation.]]
The woman points you down a long, crooked road through nothing. You walk. Eventually, your house rises like a mirage. It is <<cyclinglink "$house" "a two-story with a crooked turret, missing some shingles" "a perfectly round studio in the center of a former cornfield">>.

You come upon a tall, thin house, like a bean stalk reaching into the sky, rather delicate and patchwork. The front door is bright purple, the rest of the house an unkempt, dusty periwinkle. You raise your hand to knock and the door is pulled from under your knuckles.
A little woman stands on the other side, shawl pinched around her hunched back. She seems expectant of you.
"My child," she says, "welcome [[home]]."
<<set $scrookedgutter to 1>>
<<elseif $house eq "a perfectly round studio in the center of a former cornfield">>
The house is a perfect orb, bright white with wooden siding shingled like feathers. The windows on the sides are round, the top of the door is round, everything is round. You notice the door has a lock, but you go to touch the handle, and it beeps with your touch, clicking and opening.
Inside is a lofted bed with a desk space beneath it, a tiny kitchen, tiny couch, and a trap door to go down into the bathroom and storage.
It seems you'll be living alone here. It really is only fit for [[one person.]]

Children with the wave sigil go to the crumbling rocklands, both those heated and burnt by volcano, and those smoothed and cooled by waves. The clatter of stone rolls across the uneven ground as you walk.
You are called a child despite being knowledgeable of choice, despite being culpable. This is to aid the assimilation of your reincarnation.
The woman points you in two directions. [[Down a road of crushed obsidian]], where a house of burnt stone and scorched metal rises across from a bubbling lavafield, and [[down the smooth curve of a beach]], where a lighthouse shines out over the open waters.

A toddler runs through the grass after her sister, another child of maybe five or six. A woman with a pregnant belly lounges on the porch outside the cape attached to the lighthouse. She notices your gaze.
"Oh! Welcome, we were wondering when you'd come home!" she calls, and the children snap to your attention. They bustle over to you and unhook the gate, taking your hands and dragging you in. You need to pick up the little one to keep pace with the older. The woman is [[calling for someone]] named Kelly Anne.

She pulls out an index card and hands it to you. //Hello,// it reads, //welcome home. Grandma's been waiting to see you.//

"Yuh, what's up?" an unexpected voice rings from a small speaker you didn't notice before, mounted on one of the bottom tree branches.
You explain that this is your home.
"Oh, hey! Nice, come on up."
The ladder thunks to the ground beside you, and [[you climb up]].

You buzz the worn intercom system. There's a crackle, and an equally worn voice sputters through the electric trap.
"Come on up, come on, been waiting. Room 305."
The door clicks and you give it a tug, slinking through to the dusty entryway. You ride the elevator up to the third floor and tiptoe down the deserted hall until you reach 305.
You knock, and a near-Amazonian girl answers--tall as a warrior, short black hair, dangerous eyes. A smaller girl stands at her hip, round and soft-featured, except for the [[piercings]] jutting from numerous spots in her face. Behind them, you notice the walls [[inside]] are all covered in black foam and egg cartons.
[sliced shirt sigil]
<<elseif $house eq "apartment buildings with underground parking and solid glass facades">>
You speak to the doorman, who nods his head before letting you directly into the elevator. The man who works the elevator listens for a second before sending you straight up to penthouse. The elevator requires code authentication before opening the doors on this floor. You input a random number and it allows you inside.
A [[woman with a sharp, drawn face]] sits at a piano with a glass of wine, clearly having meant to start playing but instead distracted on her phone.
[shining chalice sigil]
<</if>>You greet her, and she steps back from the threshold, letting you creep through. The ceilings and doorways are a little short, a little like they've grown to suit the woman, or perhaps the woman has stayed small for the house.
You enter a packed but tidy living room, thick pink rug under dark wood furniture lit by huge windows framed by sundress curtains. She leads you through the living room to the dining room and kitchen, both also lined with antique furniture and stuffed with knick-knacks and tea sets and kitchen gadgets.
"I just finished cleaning the second floor. It's all for you, don't be spare with it, okay?" she implores, squeezing your elbow. "I wouldn't recommend playing in the attic though, okay, child? It's a bit dangerous and dirty."
You nod and thank her. Her name is Aura. You can call her Mater; she tells you it's Latin for mother. You [[climb the stairs]] and she goes into the kitchen.

"My room and research room are connected, here." She opens a door and there you see the reality of this woman, you believe, the true chaos and miscellany of years of intense study. Towers of books teeter under different gauges and readers, what they measure you don't know. [[Pictures of lava flow]] plaster the walls, photocopies of the same blanket the floor.
"Cool," you say.
She continues down the hall, past the bathroom, and gestures to another door.
"This is [[your room]]."

Your room is simple, near dormitory-like in its stark efficiency. You have a white tabletop desk with a couple shelves beneath, a bed with plain black sheets and a <<cyclinglink "red" "blue" "green" "missing">> comforter, and a white dresser. You didn't bring anything from your previous life--your dresser is filled with new clothes and you don't recognize the laptop sitting on your desk. But they are yours.
Dr. Light tells you she's grabbing a snack and rushing back out into the field. You're welcome to [[whatever]].

The woman, Margaret, asks her to show you inside, and she does. The kids quit clinging when Margaret points out your tiredness, that you came all this way and now just need a nap.
Kelly Anne shows you the home, sunny kitchen with granite countertops, couches and chairs covered with gray sleeves (with good reason, as the sleeves are covered with marker), wide open windows blowing in salty air. She brings you upstairs, to where Margaret sleeps in the master bedroom with the two kids, Kelly Anne has a room with a sloped ceiling, and your room is the small one squished into the side.
"I hope you don't mind," Kelly Anne [[whispers]].

Your few things are already inside, and the room seems cozy. Kelly Anne smiles.
"This used to be Cody and Jasmine's room, but they're sleeping with mom now." She pauses. "Oh! Cody is the younger one and Jasmine is the older. They're both girls."
You smile and nod. "Thanks."
Kelly Anne blushes a little when you smile, and as you walk into your room, she stands at the threshold, half-hidden by the doorframe.
"I'll let you get used to everything! See you for dinner." She skedaddles and leave you [[alone]].

You sit down across from grandma in an armchair. The girl goes to the kitchen.
Grandma sets her empty teacup down on the coffee table in front of her.
"Her name is Lin," grandma explains, "She's mute. If you want to live here, you'll watch and follow what she does."
You nod. Grandma tells you the layout of the house, your and Lin's rooms on the second floor, connected by a bathroom. Her room is on the first floor, next to the bathroom. You're sitting in the living room, ceilings as high as an embassy, and the indoor kitchen is just on the other side of the latticed wall behind her. In the basement is the laundry and dry cellar. The back door in the basement opens out into the outdoor kitchen.

The [[bathroom]] is a tiny cave, a small ladder out the back of the room leads you there. The [[kitchen]] is an induction plate and a microwave.
The person who lives there, Rowan, delights in the space. They capture their long hair in two fraying braids and bend over the open back of a neighbor's phone, rigging it for longer battery life and greater cell signal range.
"Sorry about the mess, you can set up wherever you like," they say, looking up from their work only to give you a quick, choking hug as greeting.
You look around at [[the mess]], the room lit by monitors of paused video games and movies, of hard drives being transferred and backed up, of research in progress.

You notice a half-full glass of water sitting on the sink counter. You imagine open liquids aren't allowed in the other room, what with all the sensitive technology. You make your own glass and finish it before [[returning|you climb up]].

You climb up a ladder beside the entrance to the bathroom, and find a loft, fitted with two twin mattresses on the floor on either end of the room. One of the mattresses has your sheets and pillows on it, and is surrounded by boxes of your things, mostly clothes. You suppose this is at least partly your room.
After your long journey, you collapse into bed without a second thought. You can deal with the otherworldly mess gathered downstairs [[tomorrow]].

Your room is <<cyclinglink "$roomcolor" "pastel pink" "a rugged green" "the deepest blue of the night" "mottled silver like aluminum dipped bone">>. A full-size bed with a canopy cozies up in one of the corners, a matching end table next to it. You have a dresser and a vanity. Sunlight streaks in between the blinds over the many windows. [[It's peaceful.]]

You wonder what you will destroy this time.<<endif>>
You wonder if you at heart are a peaceful person. Your things are in the room already. Clothes, notebooks, stuffed animals, moisturizers. You wonder what Aura is doing. If it was her who had to dump the refuse of you into this room. What she felt while she was doing it.
Maybe you should go to the [[kitchen|akitchen]] and see what she's up to.
Or should you immediately charge into the [[attic]], like a miscreant?
Or will you go through [[your old belongings]], and remember?
There's always the [[phone]] as well... if you don't like this place, you can call to be reborn again. It's always an option.

The town is shiny with falling rain.
<<endif>>
The neighboring town isn't much, short streets of a [[few houses]] all the same, a town square no more than a [[pizza place]], a [[bar]], and a couple [[boutique shops]] that will inevitably be gone in a year.
Everyone who builds a business in the town assumes growth will trickle in from the big city nearby. But all people do is come, raise some kids, and leave.

<<set $convo to random(4)>>
<<if $convo eq 0>>You ask her why she took you in.
She pauses for a moment. "Well, I guess I just have a fondness for children who need help. All the little ones I adopted are grown and making their own families now. My partner died a while ago, and I realized I was getting lonely. So, I asked the adoption agency to forward my info to the Rebirth Office, and here you are." She has a big smile.
Your sniffle and thank her.
She says, "No problem, baby," and gives you some <<if $cooking eq 0>>cake<<elseif $cooking eq 1>>cut apples<<elseif $cooking eq 2>>cookies from the jar on the counter<<elseif $cooking eq 3>>pancakes<<endif>> to take [[upstairs|abedroom2]].
<<elseif $convo eq 1>>You ask her about her parents.
"I grew up on the reservation," she says. "My mother worked really hard to raise me, but in a community like that you don't just have your parents. There's so many people who make you." She pauses. "I suppose that's true of everyone. It is never really up to you to mold yourself."
You quickly ask her opinion of Rebirth.
"I find it ineffective," she answers, then laughs. "Might as well fake your death like an adult, right? You can't be unmade and remade by slogging through sludge."
You hmm, and she gives you some <<if $cooking eq 0>>cake<<elseif $cooking eq 1>>cut apples<<elseif $cooking eq 2>>cookies from the jar on the counter<<elseif $cooking eq 3>>pancakes<<endif>> to take [[upstairs|abedroom2]].
<<elseif $convo eq 2>>You ask her if she has a partner. Her movements slow for a minute, then return to normal.
"I did. They died a few years ago," she says.
You ask about them.
"They were a rather rough person." She laughs. "They were an old soldier who became disenchanted with the system. They are the one who cleared all the farmland around here, and helped me start the garden out back. We kept this farm for years, but after they died... I just could not do it by myself anymore."
When you look down, a sad glance, she reassures you. "It is alright, it's been a few years already." She pauses, then chuckles. "And you are always welcome to start up the farm again if you want, I suppose. The garden is a good place to start."
You thank her and apologize for the heavy topic.
She says, "It is no problem, baby," and gives you some <<if $cooking eq 0>>cake<<elseif $cooking eq 1>>cut apples<<elseif $cooking eq 2>>cookies from the jar on the counter<<elseif $cooking eq 3>>pancakes<<endif>> to take [[upstairs|abedroom2]].
<<elseif $convo eq 3>>You ask her for a story.
She thinks on it for a moment, then begins. "The star-women were dancing and working one day, when a young falcon flew into their camp, disturbing their snakes which guarded their singing tree. The falcon stopped and asked them what they were doing, what made the singing, and they explained that the elderberry tree sang a song through its branches that kept them awake so that they could work. The falcon left after hearing this, but came back soon after with a string of shell money to give in exchange for the music. By this time the star-women had learned that he was the son of the condor, and would aid his grandfather in the creation of the human race. So, despite their wanting to tease the young falcon, who seemed so giddy in getting the music tree, they shooed the snakes away and allowed him to take a piece. Before they knew, he had spread the elderberry tree all over the continent, however the star-women stayed in the place where the sun rose, and enjoyed their beautiful shell money, and continued working."
You are surprised by the story. You'd never heard something like it before.
She explains that it came from her people; "It is much a part of my story as my birth or my death." She welcomes telling you more of them, as she has many.
You thank her, and she gives you some <<if $cooking eq 0>>cake<<elseif $cooking eq 1>>cut apples<<elseif $cooking eq 2>>cookies from the jar on the counter<<elseif $cooking eq 3>>pancakes<<endif>> to take [[upstairs|abedroom2]].
<<elseif $convo eq 4>>You ask her how old she is.
She laughs. "Never ask someone older than you their age. You might not want to find out."
You startle, and she pushes you out of the kitchen with some <<if $cooking eq 0>>cake<<elseif $cooking eq 1>>cut apples<<elseif $cooking eq 2>>cookies from the jar on the counter<<elseif $cooking eq 3>>pancakes<<endif>> to take [[upstairs|abedroom2]].

"Child, just in time. Come taste the first batch."
A row of a dozen sealed jars sits on the counter, with an open jar next to them, for the leftover that didn't fit. As you approach them, one pops, and you jump. Aura laughs.
"Oh, that means they have sealed. We want to hear twelve pops. I have heard five so far."
You taste the jam and think about where you've heard of [[elderberries]] before.

Passports and birth certificates, social security cards and driver's licenses, pocket litter from more than twenty different people, all with Aura's face and first name.
You sort through them. They go back more than 200 years, back to old family registries and deeds to farmland that is now city. At the very bottom you find sheets of paper in her handwriting, in a language you don't recognize.
You feel a sting at the base of your throat.

"Some people live longer than others," she says.
You mention that over 200 years is a little too long.
She presses her lips together, biting them. She turns to face you, and lifts her shirt enough that you can see her lower back, which is dense with images of [[stars and galaxies]], her waist ringed with a belt of words in a language you don't know.
"You are carrying on you similar things," she says. "The Rebirth Office didn't always exist. You couldn't before simply slog through a chemical pool and return a different person." She put her shirt down. "Before, it took what you saw up there. Documents, forgeries, lies."
She turns to face you and pulls down the neck of her t-shirt to show a [[black stain]] over her left breast.

You shrug, and she laughs.
"That room is for two things. The box you opened contains are my past lives, I mean reincarnations. I am one of those people who remembers their past lives, so I collect memorabilia from them.

You shake your head, looking away, trying to calm yourself. You what they looked like.
"Oh, pretty plain, long brown hair, glasses, tall. Why, you might know them? They said they used to work at Fourth Street Bowl, if that helps." She pulls eggs from the fridge and prepares to cook, but you tell her you're not hungry.
You ask if they'll be coming back. She says yeah, they'll need to come back because they ordered a few other things after seeing the passport, and she doesn't send anything through the mail. She says [[they're moving out here.]]

The truck comes and goes. The rattle of its engine, even as it leaves, sends you into an anxiety attack. At dinner time, Aura leaves baked potatoes with cheese and a slice of cake outside your door with a note. The note is a big pink heart.
You live with the knowledge that that person wanders your plains, perhaps shops in your supermarket, visits your bar, admires the shiny leaves of your apple tree. Sometimes you forget, and sometimes you painfully remember, a sigil of hiding scarred between your shoulder blades aching.
But mostly time heals. As Aura says, if marks darken, they can also fade.

Why she wouldn't try, y'know, if it was an option.
"I do not think it would be useful," she admits, "You and I both know that Rebirth only goes so far. And those lives..."
You tilt your head, licking jam off your fingers as she thinks.
"They are not mine. There is a joy in the uniqueness of the present. Do I sometimes wish I had no life at all? Certainly."
You start, shaking your head. She laughs.
"I know, baby. But no matter where I went, I would have my ancestors, my myths, my stories. And those are the roots of the tree. You cannot burn the roots." She pauses, "Plus, you can leave things without forsaking everything, you know. That is what the Christians call [[repentance|abedroom2]], is it not?"
You join her in finishing to make the jam. A sigil like a berry bunch appears on your lower right ribs.

Despite the fact that they are asking to get hit, you remain calm.
"I forgive you."
Their mouth slackens, having been ready to continue shouting, now robbed of their power.
You continue, "I will still have forgiven you the next time we meet. However, you should hope that doesn't happen."
"We can't be friends?" they mock.
"No, we are [[enemies]]."

You go inside and watch them drive away from the kitchen window.

Over the next few years, you see them around, and ignore them, purposefully looking at them so they notice you, then looking away like you didn't see them. At times, flares of fear shoot up inside you that they live so close, and hold so much natural power over you. But they subside, as they always do.

Standing in the dust cloud behind their truck, watching them drive away for the last time in any life you will lead, you feel a gentle settling at the top of your sternum.

You've decided to paint <<if $painting eq 0>>a glorious view of the mountains in the distance, a grand and lazy purple. The painting is a reflection on royalty and colonialism.<<elseif $painting eq 1>>a dense and populated look at the forest, cluttered with small animals, little swirls of leaves and blossoms, and the tiny dots and strokes of butterflies and bees. The painting is a class-based memento mori, the bugs heavy among the underbrush, the birds, some with bugs in their mouths, soaring.<<elseif $painting eq 2>>a close-up study of a seedling which has settled on the prairie, smooth, supple, detailed. The painting calls to mind the psychological heaviness of growth--the prairie grass bending up and around the sapling, both protecting and concealing.<<elseif $painting eq 3>>an examination of your own house, its strange lack of angles and UFO-like silhouette. The painting ends up being rather frivolous--but the subject matter makes it a strange piece evoking otherworldly feelings, curiosity, wonder, covetousness, more.<<endif>>

The wrapping doubles as anti-radiation for those around you.
In your package, they put you in the back of a van which takes you to the [[train|otrain]] station. They continue to load you into a special train car for people like you, those who've undergone reformation. You are alone in the car.

The town is shiny with falling rain.
<<endif>>
The neighboring town isn't much, short streets of a [[few houses|ohouses]] all the same, a town square no more than a [[pizza place|opizza]], a [[bar|obar]], and a couple [[boutique shops|oshops]] that will inevitably be gone in a year.
Everyone who builds a business in the town assumes growth will trickle in from the big city nearby. But all people do is come, raise some kids, and leave.

//Hi! This is your neighbor. I've noticed you around your house as I've been going out into the forest to forage, and I think both you and your paintings are lovely. I was wondering if you would like to penpal for a little, as I don't have much time to leave my farm. It would be a pleasure to meet you eventually, though. If you care to, leave a letter at the edge of the forest for me, and I'll find it. -F//
Surprised at the letter, as you thought you were truly alone out on these plains, you rush to your desk and tear a page out of your sketchbook.
[[Pen a favorable letter]]
[[Equivocate]], as this person seems a little creepy.

You find a new note, and a jar of what looks like dried mushrooms.

On the other side is what could only be described as a monster. Made of constantly coiling, writhing vines, masses of turf and mud, even a few worms. A bouquet of flowers grows from its head, as though it had gotten a "hair cut" to come meet you. It's holding a cloth bag full of corn and a Pyrex dish covered with tin foil, warm with cornbread.
"Hi," you say, breath somewhat taken away. "You're F?"
The creature nods, "I am the fae of this forest. I own the land your house is on. My full name is Florence."
Weird flex, but okay.
"Oh, well, welcome, Florence. Thanks for letting me stay."
A small flower blooms amongst Florence's many vines. Perhaps that's a smile?

You sit down for a chat.
<<if $convo eq 0>>"Why did you choose me? Didn't you say a witch lived up the road too?" you ask.
"Yeah, I can't exactly get help from a witch who doesn't even live on my land, can I? They're unpredictable," they answer. "Plus, you're sweet and lovely. You paint my forest so beautifully. I can't ask for much more."
You blush. You think they're pretty unpredictable.
<<elseif $convo eq 1>>You ask when they meant by "take care of you."
"Well," they muse, "I don't think you need to be worrying about money, or about who you are, or what choices you need to make. I think you should be able to just be. That's what I want to give you."
You wonder if that is sweet or overprotective. Perhaps somewhere in between?
<<elseif $convo eq 2>>You ask if there are other faeries like them.
"There certainly aren't many left, your species is making sure of that. So lacking in magic..." they grumble.
You ask if you have magic. Flowers bloom across their chest.
"Oh, more than many I've come across. It's in your eyes, you know. And your hands, and..." They go off on a tirade of compliments and explanations on magic and art you can hardly understand. You blush through the whole thing.
<<elseif $convo eq 3>>You ask what they think of rebirth.
"Well, it helps, and it hurts," they say. "It helps when it lets children escape bad situations. It hurts when people think it will fix all their problems and it doesn't and now they have two people's worth of problems. Of course, fae can't be reborn."
You ask why.
"First of all, look at me." They gesture up and down with vines. "Who would suddenly accept me as though I was a human child?"
You shrug.
"Second of all, I wasn't born in the first place. I sprouted from the earth. So, all that technology your folk made to return people to their womb water and erase all their marks, it wouldn't work on me, because I had no womb."
<<elseif $convo eq 4>>You ask what kind of magic they can do.
"A little rude that you don't think the fact of my existence is magic." They gesture up and down their squirming body with vines. "But for real, I can move plants and dirt and stuff mostly. Anything having to do with the earth, except water."
"Cool," you say.
<<elseif $convo eq 5>>"So, what would happen if we had sex?" you ask.
They laugh. Flowers blossom down their body. "Assuming a freak like you is human? Our DNA or whatever doesn't match, so not much. Except pleasure."
You offer to try.

Radiation is partly used for this purpose, as it makes your cells unstable, but also is used to protect the scientists performing the procedure. It breaks down the incredible energy of your most powerful [[bodily desires]], which become loose and wild under the strain of the procedure.
Dr. Light drops you off and wishes you luck, in the wake of that [[stunning]] news.

In an effort to make it easier for them to find, you color the edges bright yellow with a highlighter.
You rush the letter out to the edge of the forest and [[stick it|obedroom]] into the knotted hole of a tree, half-hanging out.

[[Back|title]]Though muffled by the floor, you hear a knocking at your door, apropos of nothing. You hear no wheels rolling over the dirt road, approaching as you would have expected. Instead, an immaterial, apparition of a knock. You hold your breath.
<<timedinsert 10s>>There is another knock. You feel as though your already small surroundings are becoming tighter.<<endtimedinsert>>
<<timedinsert 18s>>There is another knock, this time on the trapdoor itself. You slap your hand over your mouth to keep from screaming. How did he get past the electronic lock?<<endtimedinsert>>
<<timedinsert 25s>>"I know you're hiding in there, sweetheart."
Your heart is beating out of your chest. You stay silent.<<endtimedinsert>>
<<timedinsert 31s>>"Alright."
[[What?]]<<endtimedinsert>>The foundation of your home begins to crack. Vines worm their way through, slicing as though sharp as wire through the porous concrete. More and more vines slide in, drop to the floor, knot together, congregate.
You press yourself against the stairs. You realize you might be able to escape, and begin yanking on the padlock, fumbling with the key you secured in your pocket.
A vine closes your hands together, making you unable to turn the key.
"It seems you finally have the right idea."
[[The creature speaks.]]

You reveal the mushroom risotto to great praise. You plate up while the corn is boiling, and eat it piping hot when it's done.
You spend the afternoon talking about the forest, about Florence's history as landlord, about the people who used to use this land, about your rebirth, and your paintings. Florence drops little compliments for you throughout the conversation, first about your paintings and the cleanliness of your home, then about your eyes, skin, and hair.
You end up on the small couch together. It barely fits two people, much less one person and one plant monster. Your side is plastered to them.
"So, I have [[something to ask]]," Florence begins.

"What?"
Florence goes on to explain that a development of condominiums on the other side of the forest has robbed them of their real home, and they've been living in a small faerie house with a leaf roof for the past month. They need more time to build their new home. Plus, they really like you, (like like you), and in exchange would like to take care of you and invite you to live with them after they've finished building, if that's okay.
[[That seems okay.]]
[[You'd actually rather not.]]

"Thank you!" they cry, and the vine once across your back disappears.
"No problem," you say, and reach over for a hug. They grip you back with their vines, their body swirling beneath you.
When you pull back, you ask, "Will it be okay for you to stay on the couch? My bed is only a twin."
They seem to nod. "No problem! I don't sleep much anyway."
With that, you two move on to new conversations, about sleep and dreams, about condominiums and colonization, about climate change and earth and ecology.
You talk [[late into the night|obedroom]].

The parting dirt wall reveals a studio carved out of the side of the mountain that seemed so close but distant to you as you sat outside your home at your easel. You rush inside and find more canvases, brushes, and paints. The paints are in glass jars and labelled by hand.
"Did you make these?" you ask Florence. Their vines scrunch as though nodding.

You clean the glass tanks, rescued from their hiding in the doctor's room in record time, pressured by the lava slugs snaking around her arm and her lack of fear of them.
You stack rocks throughout their new habitat and dump a healthy layer of scorched earth and ash over the whole thing. When Dr. Light sets them inside, they each seem to pick a rock and latch on, like claiming dibs on bunk beds.
"Aren't they cute?" the doctor croons.
You watch them for a moment.
[[Yeah, they are.|whatever]]
<<elseif $day eq 6>>
You and Dr. Light spend most of the morning wondering what these creatures eat. You thought maybe it would be rocks, considering their gravitation toward them, but the rocks seem to be something akin to comfort items more than anything.
As you watch them, and look over the doctor's photographs from yesterday, you realize they've dulled a little, become cooler.
"Perhaps they eat [[fire?]]" you offer.
<<elseif $day eq 7>>
The creatures are larger today, growing longer and more defined, four nubs of perhaps what will be limbs sprouting from their sides.
"They look so much different..." Dr. Light hmms, running her finger over her lower lip. She goes back to her room to record some things, then goes back out to the lava flow. She keeps looking for more of these things, without any luck. After your blast of inspiration yesterday, you've been charged official Lava Creature Caretaker.
[[Study them][$cruel += 1]]
[[Play with them][$kindness += 1]]
<<elseif $day eq 8>>
The amount of growth is shocking. The creatures no longer crawl like slugs, but tromp around on four slow, sticky feet. The front two feet appear to be evolving more similarly to human hands, and the head has grown bulbous, fetal, perhaps for, like humans, accommodating a more complex brain. Are they actively adapting to look like you and Dr. Light?
Dr. Light has realized they are going to outgrow what tanks she has sooner rather than later, and goes into town to look for housing solutions.
As caretaker, you continue with your daily tasks, now accommodating a new range of movement, and splitting the creatures into two tanks, as they had overgrown the first on collectively. They are each about the size of a tissue box.
[[Study them][$cruel += 1]]
[[Play with them][$kindness += 1]]
<<elseif $day eq 9>>
Last night, Dr. Light completely overhauled her living room, turning it into a fire proof playhouse, concrete, brick, and fiberglass everything.
With good reason, too. The creatures now ambulate on two legs and take the appearance of red, glowing one-year-old human children, with higher intelligence. They are allowed out of their tanks and to wander their strange playland, outfitted with little ceramics and rocks as toys.
The doctor sleeps while you stay with them.
[[Study them][$cruel += 1]]
[[Play with them][$kindness += 1]]
<<elseif $day eq 10>>
The lava children appear to be growing exponentially. What were one-year-old human-likes at the end of the day yesterday now appear to be three years old, and as accomplished in the English language.
"Mama!" some of them call you.
"Papa!" an equal number of others yell. They don't seem to understand that there is a clash among them. You are merely both papa and mama.
You wonder who taught them these things, and realize it must be Dr. Light. But why would she teach them both, and both in relation to you? It that your relation to them? "Parent," blanketly?
You wonder what language you've taught them. How they will use it.
[[Study them][$cruel += 1]]
[[Play with them][$kindness += 1]]
<<elseif $day eq 11>>
The lava children seem to have grown to about human-age five. They are wild, for lack of a better word, and clumsy, but now seem more intentional about their movement and more interested in things like reading and writing. As you've yet to discover clothes that wouldn't burst into flames on them, you have the mixed pleasure of noting that the group remains sexless, or at least sex organ-less.
Dr. Light spent the last night whipping through child rearing books and forwarding you the notes. She's asleep, as usual leaving you with the real work. At least part of her notes involved home enrichment for language arts.
You gather the children in a circle on the concrete floor.
[[Study them][$cruel += 1]]
[[Play with them][$kindness += 1]]
<<elseif $day eq 12>>
In the biggest leap yet, the children grew from about five to about ten in the past night. They take the appearance of perfectly smooth, glowing red humans, no hair to speak of, eyes black pits in their skulls, mouth formed solely for speech, so the tongue is without bumps or ridges, and the "teeth" are two smooth arcs in their mouths. They still absorb their food through their skin.
Dr. Light manages to create toga-like clothing out of fiberglass cloth which holds up to the lava children's extreme heat.
You and the doctor have realized that they vary in heat, and that they have begun to more actively vary their heat, like they've always shown signs of being able to do, in order to touch otherwise untouchable things.
[[Study them][$cruel += 1]]
[[Play with them][$kindness += 1]]
<<elseif $day eq 13>>
<<if $visited eq 1>>
The teenager human-salamanders sleep, except for a few. Pele and Shula say they went through this a little earlier, the middle of the night last night. They help you pass cold packs and food around and keep the hurting children company.
<<else>>
"Imagine going through puberty in one night, man..." Dr. Light empathizes as nearly all of the lava children, now resembling fifteen-year-olds, though on the small side, lie face-down in their fiberglass cloth bedding. It appears to be the most comfortable position for most of them, as their backs burst into flame in response to being unable to control their rising heat.
"Are we sure they aren't sick?" you offer.
One of them, Pele, who appears to be fine amongst the teenage wasteland, answers, "No, this is normal for human-identifying salamanders. Y'all hormones suck."
Pele drops a few words there that give at both you and the doctor pause.
[[Human-identifying?]]
[[Salamanders?]]

You yell, "What are you doing?" and trot up behind her as she removes her hands.
They come out covered in little smears of lava, smears which seem to undulate and reach out, like [[slugs]].

Dr. Light muses.
You stare, mouth agape, as the lava slugs curl around her fingers and reach little slime-limbs out to touch each other.
"I knew they existed. The first animal to be born directly from contact with a lava flow." Dr. Light shakes with excitement, eyes glued to the little creatures.
You're frozen, despite the heat. The shine of Dr. Light's eyes as she scrutinizes the creatures you find both frightening and charming. And the creatures themselves seem so extraterrestrial and miraculous, you don't know how to react, what even to begin to think.
"C'mon." Dr. Light seems to notice you for the first time. "Let's go get these little fellas into some kind of [[holding tank|whatever]]."

She holds it over the habitat, and the slugs stretch toward it, waving little tentacles almost in worship. She sets it down in the tank, and the creatures swarm it, eating the part of the wood actively burning.
She grins. "So, they eat not fire, but burning material! Interesting..." She goes to her room and begins typing at lightning speed.

<<if $day eq 7>>
You stoke their environment with more food and a few little things lying around that you knew wouldn't catch fire, like metal thimbles and glass marbles. As they investigate, rolling their new little toys around, the metal begins to melt, the glass crack.
They look to you. As though curious, or seeking, they push a marble toward you.
Surprised, you place your pencil down atop your notebook.
You begin making gestures that you hope mimic a thermometer dropping, but they don't know what a thermometer is.
"They are breaking because it's too hot," you vocalize as clear as you can. You bring your hand flat, facing down, up to your forehead and lower it as you speak. "Make yourselves cooler, like ice."
You bring up pictures of ice and snowflakes on your phone and show them. "Like that." You point.
You're not sure if they understand, but none of the thimbles melt into puddles, and only one of the marbles shatters.
<<elseif $day eq 8>>
You hand them nails to play with today, the nearest equivalent to a long stick. They poke each other, and make little screeching noises like cries. These are fixed with food.
You ask them to gesture to things you list, such as yourself, their friends, rocks, food, etc. Most of them are quick about it, a few lag behind.
You find that they seem to help each other naturally, approaching the confused ones without prompt and coming to their aid.
<<elseif $day eq 9>>
You do simple tests to check for the typical human growth points at this age, and they soar past them in identification, complexity of play, and social relation. However, their speech is lagging behind.
You choose a simple picture book and read aloud to them, hoping it will somehow jog the physical memory of whatever about them makes them human-like.
<<elseif $day eq 10>>
Pleased with their language progress, you administer more tests today, judging their grammar use and ability to sing nursery rhymes. They are able to melt crayons and use the liquid to draw on sheets of fiberglass, producing generous renderings of human beings, all limbs accounted for if out of place.
You hold a game of hop-scotch and record issues with both balance and counting.
Near the end of the day, as you feed them dinner, one of them says a full-voiced "thank you" as you hand them their meal, and it stops you in your tracks.
<<elseif $day eq 11>>
You pass out sheets of fiberglass and crayons. They begin melting them, smearing them on each other, giggling, and you whap your white board with a ruler to get their attention. On it, you write the alphabet, then a full sentence below it: We came from the lava. You figured if they'd have to explain anything in their life to anyone all the time, it would be their appearance, so why not start their learning there.
You rotate around the class as they unsteadily copy the board. When they are done you have them do it again with a new sentence: I was raised by Dr. Light by the lava field.
They pause when you write this and read it aloud. Perhaps even they know it is a sort of lie. For many reasons.
<<elseif $day eq 12>>
You make the children line up for a test. In order, you hand each of them a thermometer, and ask them to make it a few temperatures at will.
"Why are we doing this?" one of them asks.
You're surprised, and respond, "I'm just gathering data about you guys."
The one who asked looks at the others, eyebrows raised, nodding. You have no idea what he's thinking. You are impressed that they can both speak full sentences and question authority now.
About half the children can manipulate the temperature at will within a range of temperatures (all rather high).

<<if $day eq 7>>
"Okay guys!" You beam at them, lowering into their tank a couple choice snacks of burning toothpicks and bits of an old desk. "Want to play a game?"
They watch as you place two little wire soccer goals at either end of their tank, dropping a marble in the middle. They are quick to begin investigating, and you have to nudge them away from the goals as they start to melt them.
"Be careful! You can melt this metal with your heat. Can you make yourselves a little cooler? Under 600 degrees Celsius should be enough!"
You let them back near the goals and find that they have not only listened but somehow understood, no longer melting the wire.
You pat them on the head one by one, your hand wrapped in multiple fireproof gloves, praising them. You go on to explain the rules of soccer, divide teams, and set them loose. Without the ability to wear jerseys, it's hard to keep the teams straight, but you're pretty sure Team Magma (as opposed to Team Lava) won, based on the dramatic posturing of the various members.
<<elseif $day eq 8>>
"You're all so cute!" you cry, patting each of the little loaves with legs. You examine their front feet and find more developed hands than you expected.
"Maybe now that you can grab stuff, you'd like a throwing game? Or, like, fencing? But that's dangerous..." you muse, thrilled with your prospects. You end up putting together a tiny baseball diamond, lines of wire and bases of folded tin foil and an itty-bitty crushed tin foil ball. You give them nails as bats and explain the rules, assuming the role of the umpire for yourself.
"Remember to keep everything under 550 degrees Celsius!" you shout and blow a whistle. You decide to nudge the heat down, see if they can do it.
You worry briefly about the amount of activity making the fiberglass tanks tip over, but it turns out the little guys are still slow going, so you end up entertaining them by giving commentary on a game even slower than normal baseball. You swear you hear little squeaks like giggles escape from them.
<<elseif $day 9>>
You receive Dr. Light's permission to name them. She was trying to keep her scientific distance, but now that they look like babies, that's a little out the window. It would be easier to have names to refer to them and call them by anyway.
You give them all some little toys you made out of tin foil, cubes and balls and your best rendering of a Barbie doll, to go along with the ceramic toys Dr. Light bought. They enjoy those as you boot up your laptop and search for names.
You have ten lava babies to name.
[[You google names related to fire.]]
<<elseif $day eq 10>>
You try to school them in which you actually are, mama, papa, babysitter, whatever. They don't seem to catch on. Some adopt others as you explain, calling you "daddy" "momma" or "baby." You laugh and let them carry on.
They're more interested in their own play with each other than playing with you, but you bring out your laptop and projector, and some tin foil. They crush the sheets into shapes as you project a book onto the wall and read aloud from it, so they can all see the pictures without burning the book.
They laugh and ask for the same book again.
<<elseif $day eq 11>>
"Okay guys!" you begin your lesson. You hand out crayons and sheets of fiberglass. "You can melt the crayons and use the liquid to write on the sheets, or, if you think you can keep your heat below 300 degrees Celsius, I can give you a pencil."
They all look at their sheets and proceed with the crayons. They begin to have fun melting and smearing the colors, showing their friends/siblings and laughing.
"Okay, here." You suppress a chuckle as you begin to write all their names on a whiteboard you brought. "These are your and your friends' names. See if you can recognize which one is yours and try to copy the shapes of the letters."
You write the alphabet below. "These are all the English letters, for reference. I'll come around and help."
To your surprise, the kids all recognize the shapes of their names, without having seen them before. They reproduce them well the first time, save a couple backwards S's and R's.
As they improve, you encourage them to write their own sentences and stories. Many of them include you.
<<elseif $day eq 12>>
"Everyone," you address the five-year old crowd, brandishing pencils. "I have a dare for you."
You explain the nature of a dare and they become excited, pride-filled.
"Yesterday, you all played with the crayons rather than lower your temperature to use a pencil. Today, I dare you to go below 300 degrees Celsius, and take these pencils from me."
The children chatter amongst each other. They wonder if they can do it. Eventually, Agni, who has always been the biggest of the group, steps up. Pele, who had always been the brightest, both in luminosity and intelligence, does as well.
You hold a pencil out to each of them. Pele, without hesitating, grabs hold. A bit of smoke unfurls from the wood, but stops soon. They take the pencil from your fingers and hold it in both hands, eyes sparkling.
Agni, having watched and grown a bit injured in the ego by the smaller lava child, snatches the pencil from your hand. It bursts into flames. They shove it into their mouth, eating it.
"Oops," they say. The others laugh.
Pele places a hand on Agni's shoulder and starts helping them, explaining the feeling of becoming colder. A few minutes later, most of them are holding pencils, looking proud.
"Alright, amazing job, kiddos." You beam. You go into your room and emerge with a ream of paper. "Ready for the next challenge?"

Pele gives a bashful smile, looking over at her downed friends/siblings.
"Fire salamanders take the ultimate form of [[whatever cares for them]]," Pele explains. "Usually we are born closer to your basic salamander's nest, and are raised by them, and turn out like them."
"So, because we raised you..." Dr. Light tries to get them to go on.
Pele puts their hands on their hips, seeming proud. "We're very good at [[learning and mimicking and adapting]]. It takes us only one day to become full-fledged salamanders. A week to transition all the way into teenage humans is pretty good, right?"
"But, why?" you ask, "If you can take any form, why automatically take the form of your caretakers?"
Pele thinks for a minute. [["We want to be accepted."]]

"Yeah, that's what we are. Fire salamanders," they say, seeming determined to say no more.
Dr. Light presses forward. "Salamanders don't usually start as lava slugs. Or become human." She brings up a picture of an actual fire salamander, common to many parts of the world, on her phone. "This is what you're claiming you are, you know?"
Pele crosses their arms. "That's not a fire salamander. We are. Those are just boring old non-magic lizard things."
"Magic?" Dr. Light deflates. It is a [[fact that magic exists]]. It is also a fact that people who live by science, such as Dr. Light, have yet to find an efficient way to study it, measure it, or categorize it.
"Yep." Pele nods. Simple as that.
You sense you are getting nowhere. Perhaps it's a linguistic barrier?

You've been alive little more than a week!" Dr. Light argues, surging forward. She reaches an ungloved hand out to one of them, and you yell no! But she isn't burned. They've mastered control of themselves to that degree.
You realize they look fully human now. Their colors vary toward reddish and their eyes are all the darkest black they could be, but they have hair and eyebrows and defined teeth and they just look... beautiful. You keep thinking about how they were based off you and everything you taught them.
Dr. Light stands paralyzed. The person she grabbed, Agni, shakes her hand off.
"Thank you for everything," Agni says.
You turn to Pele. "You said you guys didn't even know what you wanted."
Everyone looks at Pele and Pele examines her feet.
"How can you leave?" you ask.
[["To find that out."]]

One of the babies looks up from when they're doing, looking you in the eyes with their blank, fiery face. They point to themselves, pudgy fingers clumsy. You nod. Their head bobs, and they squeal.
Well, this will be easier than expected.
You end up with:
1. Agni
2. Aiden
3. Blaise
4. Phoenix
5. Flint
6. Pele
7. Shula
8. Kalama
9. Hestia
10. Adara
The babies seem to name themselves, taking masculine/feminine names at random. You wonder if they are joking with you, and call a couple names more than once. The same child always looks up, waves at you, tilts their head, calls back to you.

"But it's what we know. It's what saves us, looking alike. Staying similar."
"But is that what you want?" you ask. Dr. Light glances over at you, perhaps remembering for the first time since you arrived that you were reborn. That you had spent years trying to convince yourself that what you wanted mattered. That you were allowed to express yourself, be different, become new.
Pele's eyes widen, what once were black pits now shiny black orbs with white irises, growing even if only in shape ever more similar to you. They look over their suffering friends.
"We don't know yet," they admit. "We're only a little more than a week old, you know."
You deflate. You wonder if what you gave them in this week was enough.

You have the realization that you are not held together by anything. You think of your past life, riddled with trauma. You wonder if maybe, by ignoring everything, you have lost the ability to become the same person but better. You now are only a different person.
Of course, that's [[ridiculous]].

You realize you've treated them kind of poorly. Feeding them scrap wood and recycling nonstop, without asking what they liked. Forcing the ten of them to sleep sardined together on the floor of the living room, a few fiberglass sheets as padding and blankets.
[["I'm sorry,"]] you say. Everyone turns to you.

They smile. Pele and Shula step forward and hug you. Their warmth seeps through your clothes. The rest of them begin to surround you, their collected heat making you sweat, but moreso their gentleness making you weep.
"Don't be," Pele speaks for them. "You were kind to us. You played with us and we know you did your best having never raised anything like us before."
Blaise laughs. "Yeah, how were you supposed to know?" Blaise sniffles. You notice many of them are crying as well.
You grab Pele and Shula, standing closest to you, by the hands. "Do you have to go far? Will you all stay together?"
They all look between each other, brows furrowed but smiling.
Shula answers this time, shaking her head. "We have to go where we want, isn't that what you said? That could be anywhere."
Agni comments, taking Flint's hand. "Some of us have decided to stay together. Others have decided a destination." Kalama, Pele, and Aiden put their hands up. "Others are going where the wind takes them." Phoenix, Hestia, and Adara wave.
Blaise insists, "But we always know where home is. We'll come back."
You nod, fully sobbing now. The group wraps you in another tight squeeze, and lets you go.
"Bye," you rasp.
"Bye," Pele says. "We love you."

"You should be," Shula snaps. You're taken aback.
"We know you only thought of us as lab rats," Blaise continues.
Flint gives you the finger. A bunch of the rest stick their tongues out at you.
Dr. Light defends you, "We're scientists, we were just doing our best!"
Pele rolls their eyes. "Doing your best sleeping the whole day? Thanks for the room and stuff, but you could've just raised us outside in the lava flow and we would've been fine. If you weren't planning on actually caring for us, why bring us inside?"
You and the doctor look between each other. You sigh.
"Sorry," you say again.
Phoenix shrugs. "Bet you don't even remember most of our names."
You grimace.
A few of them flash the peace sign as they start heading out the door.
"Bye," you say.
"Nice knowing you," Blaise says.
They leave you and Dr. Light standing in the dark.

You realize Margaret was right, it has been a long day.
You sink into the sheets of the bed and let the salty air wash over you as you fall [[asleep]].

When you awaken, Kelly Anne chides you and feeds you breakfast. She gives you a tour of the lighthouse and explains the work of your family, keepers. Kelly Anne says she mostly does house work, cleaning up after her two siblings, and Margaret is too pregnant to do the work right now. So, you're being asked to take care of the lighthouse itself.

Several CNAs usher you into the lab. Here, is the container of your bodily desires. An 8-foot test tube lies on the tiled floor, side open like a treasure chest for you to crawl inside.
You remove your clothes and place them in the hands of a scientist, who deposits them down a trash shoot. You will receive new clothes after the procedure.
Before you step inside the pod, a scientist [[confirms|lconfirms]] with you.

You arrive, touch Kelly Anne on the arm, and she turns to cry into you. You press her eyes into your shoulder, and glance past her and whatever she was looking at.
A mimic octopus lies dead in the sand. Or, at least, what appears to be.
"Whoa," you say, "those... really don't live here."
The children are crying. Margaret gazes up at you and nods.
"Yeah, we don't know how it got here," she deadpans.
You find her attitude strange, but figure she's just tired from walking pregnant down a beach.
"I'll [[clean it up]] you guys, okay? Just head on back," you say.

She blushes when you praise her.<<elseif $dinner eq 1>>Having harvested a boatload of bamboo shoots today, you both set to making a feast out of them.

You beg for breath, lungs weak from the change. The scientists work quickly, wrapping you like a mug going through the post, layers of bubblewrap-like padding around your torso, keeping your weakened bones from malforming on contact with people and furniture. The wrapping doubles as anti-radiation for those around you.
In your package, they cart you out to the bus stop, where they call you a rideshare. You're put in the back of a nondescript black van and carted to the bus stop in Lin's town. When you get there, she's waiting with a truck filled with pillows and blankets. As she helps you inside, she pats your face and seems to examine you, both admiring your new features and checking to see if you're okay. You smile, and she seems satisfied enough to bring you [[home|room2]] without any fuss.

As you begin to eat, she asks, "So, has Lin told you?"
You lower your spoon. "Told me what?"
Grandma grimaces, huffs. "I suppose not. I thought you two had gotten close over the past week."
"Yeah, but it's still only been a week," you say. Lin does seem to smile more around you, and you've often spent time sitting next to each other, both of you texting the other, rather than Lin writing and you speaking, so the conversation seemed more natural. She's really sweet over text--expressive and vibrant and talkative.
"Is this about why she's [[mute]]?" you ask.

Grandma sighs, "Yes, she's mute by choice. She won't even talk to me anymore. I signed up for this rebirth placement thing in the hopes that someone would come and open her up. She's too isolated from the rest of the village." She squints at you, side-eyeing. "I wonder if you can get the reason out of her."
You press your lips together, awkward. You don't want to force anything out of Lin. But curiosity is running hot through your veins.

On your way back to the house, Lin passes you pieces of paper with questions about your rebirth. She asks if it was trauma that sent you into that dark pool. You replied as honestly as you could without giving yourself an anxiety attack with the memory. Lin writes, //thank you//.

<<if $dinner eq 0>>You follow along as Lin makes hot and sour noodles with sweet potatoes. The starch she collected yesterday, so today you watched her form the sweet potato paste and stream it into the boiling water in her outdoor kitchen, creating fine, thin noodles. You can't stop going wild about how amazing it is. She makes the sauce for the noodles and you help her by throwing together a few side dishes. She blushes when you praise her.<<elseif $dinner eq 1>>Having harvested a boatload of bamboo shoots today, you both set to making a feast out of them. Frying, stirfrying, pickling, preserving, stuffing inside steamed buns. These are some activities you feel comfortable participating in, and by the end of the day Lin admits your dumpling folding technique was impressive.<<elseif $dinner eq 2>>Lin chops a whole chicken into bits and you're tasked with frying the various pieces and combining them with different seasonings. Lin makes you a cheat-sheet, and it all turns out well in the end.<<elseif $dinner eq 3>>You and Lin put together simple dumplings and congee, a warm and filling meal for tired ladies.<<endif>>
You talk about the food you used to eat, when you lived alone, before the rebirth. A lot of fast food and prepackaged garbage. She laments, shoving card after card into your hands about how nutrition is important and no wonder your skin has improved so much since coming here and how those meals will take years off your life.
<<if visited("dinner2") gte 3>>
Lin expresses how glad she is you like her meals. She considers her cooking one of her only good qualities. You spend some time listing her other ones, including but not limited to her handiness, ferocious skill with a knife, and intense beauty. She's blushing so much she has to go to the bathroom to splash water on her face.

<<if $build eq 0>>Someone in the village broke one of their chairs, so Lin teaches you how to build a new one out of bamboo. She makes one while you copy her, so you end up with one nice chair and one to be cut apart and carved into utensils. She passes you an index card that says //it's not that bad, the next will be good//. You thank her.<<elseif $build eq 1>>Together you build a bamboo swing in the middle of the village, for the children to play with.<<elseif $build eq 2>>You and Lin work on sewing together a comforter made with silk harvested by Lin herself. It isn't done at the end of the day, but Lin passes you a note that says //very good work!// and you tear up a little.<<elseif $build eq 3>>Someone in the village needs a new washbasin, so together you nail one together with salvaged wood. You are surprised how water-tight it is by the end!<<endif>>
You tell Lin anecdotes. <<if $story eq 0>>One is a story where you fixed a sink for an old lady, and ended up flooding her basement. That's when you learned how to refinish basements. Lin giggles, surprised. //You can do that, but you'd never milked a cow?//
You laugh, "Not a lot of cows where I grew up--" You cut yourself off. Rebirth rules emphasize not talking about your past life. But Lin looks curious, and you want to get closer to her. You continue as vaguely as possible.<<elseif $story eq 1>>One is a story about a time a camp, where you and a couple counselors took a boat out onto the lake at night and crashed it. You had to swim a mile back to shore, and in the morning the counselors were caught and ratted you out too. You had to scrub the bottoms of the row boats for the rest of the week.<<elseif $story eq 2>>You dish some dirt on a one-night stand, how he was a little skeevy and had zero tact to his name. He brought you on an excursion to get an old duffle bag of his, because he was leaving for a trip that weekend, and it turned out the bag was at his old girlfriend's house. You watched them eyefuck for five minutes before excusing yourself, getting into the driver's seat of his car, and taking yourself to Wendy's. He called, outraged, and you asked if we wanted anything.
This story has Lin in stitches. You get glimpses of her voice, shaking.<<endif>>

You pour tea in silence.
She grumbles. "Around the time she stopped speaking, she came home crying and told me that people speak too much and that gets them in trouble. I tried to talk her out of it but she just kept reiterating herself, and eventually stopped altogether."
You ask her why she doesn't confront Lin herself.
She sips her tea, hmming. "Call it a grandmother's curse. She doesn't want to worry me so she always skirts around the issue, even when I ask about it directly."
You nod. Sounds like Lin.
Grandma points at you. "I'm going away this afternoon for the weekend. Seeing a doctor in the big city and making a trip out of it by seeing my cousin. Confront her!" She pauses. "But be gentle, still."

You realize you haven't been making many choices, certainly not as many as you expected to in this new life. There've been no twists and turns. You followed Lin blindly.

Rowan is back, appearing in the doorway just as you tuck the journal into the kangaroo pouch of your sweatshirt. You try not to act suspicious, and ask what's for dinner.

You are pouring over the book in your bed one morning, under the covers, flashlight trained, when Rowan lifts the blanket.
"Good morning! What kind of porn are we reading under..." Rowan shouts, notices what you're reading, and quiets.
"You find that in a box of mine?" they ask.
You feel a bit afraid. You still don't actually know what this book is for. Catfishing? Identity theft? Some kind of fraud?
You tell him [[yeah]].

The wrapping doubles as anti-radiation for those around you.
In your package, they cart you out to the bus stop, where they call you a rideshare. You're put in the back of a nondescript black van and carted to the bus stop by Rowan's town. When you get there, they're waiting with their neighbor's truck, filled with pillows and blankets. They help you inside, all the while unable to stop staring at your face, telling you that you look great. You thank them and they take you [[home|room3]].

"Lin, it's okay. I--grandma has been asking me these past weeks to find out why you've decided to go mute. She's worried about you, and so am I. We want to know so maybe we can help."

You take in one last look at Lin's long black hair, breathing the vision. You patter up beside her and she turns to look at you.
"Need help?" you offer.
She nods and makes the motions of what she's doing, asking you to do it too.
As you mimic her, you chat with her. You ask if she's read a book and then recommend it to her or give her your opinion on it. You tell her stories and jokes. You do not confess.

"If you're not going to tell me, you can just walk away now, and I'll tell grandma. You don't have to give any excuse. But if you are going to, why not use your voice?"
You worry you're leading her on a bit. Giving an unfair ultimatum. She sniffles, but rubs her eyes and looks you straight on. Maybe she is ready to tell you, and was just waiting for the right time.
"Sorry for springing this on you, by the way," you say.

She laughs; you hear it for the first time. It's high-pitched and a little grating, like it hurts her throat. She coughs.
"The story is..." She hesitates. You can tell she's never said this aloud before, to anyone, to herself. "I used to work at the restaurant in town, and a man told me one day he loved my voice. He would call the restaurant and order takeout just to hear me, he said, and one day he sat in the dining room for my whole shift [[just listening]] to me take orders.

She began to tear up. You stroke her back.
"You don't need to keep going. I get it," you say.

"They said he didn't really do anything, and I was overreacting, and maybe I should've just given him a chance." She grips your shirt, balling it in her fists. "So, why did I bother telling them? Why did I recount every humiliating, frightening detail of the last few months? Why speak at all?"
Overwhelmed, you take a deep breath.

"Lin, that means you shout louder."
"What?"
"If someone doesn't believe you, when you know you are righteous and good, you find someone who does. I'm sure half the girls in this village have been screwed over by this guy. You know his name. You shout it from the rooftops. You give it to the paper. You spread it on message boards. You call in to the radio. You //make people listen//. You convince them you are not making anything up; you are not out to ruin him without cause; you are not crazy. Because you're not. You're a human who deserves respect."
She bites her quivering bottom lip, holding back tears.

You take a stop at the boathouse and grab a tarp and a milk crate and to lift it with and store it in, respectively.
As you're zooming down the coast, you see something strange. The body of the octopus, already an anomaly, one second--gone the next. You zip even faster over to its deathbed, climbing out of the boat and sloshing over to what now is but a pile of sand. That is, a pile of sand distinctly bigger than what it was lying on, as though the octopus itself turned into the sand. Did an animal grab it? What the hell?
More importantly, your heart is racing with the anxiety that the kids are going to be upset forever now that you have no body to bury. You scoop up some sand in your tarp and go back to the boathouse to build a [[small box]], filling it with the sand.

She goes back into the kitchen. You continue digging. You feel her watching you from the window.
Right before dinner, everyone dresses in black, and you hold a funeral. You eulogize, the children say their dear goodbyes, and you all go [[inside|lighthouse][$day +=1]] for a beautiful roasted dinner.

Kelly Anne's room is like a miniature garden, five or six plants crammed into the small square of sun filtering through her window.
As you go to water the plants, you notice an open bin at the end of her bed, peeking out from underneath the bed. You go to close it and tuck it away, and realize it's filled with [[food]].

Dogs and cats, hamsters and guinea pigs, rats, snakes, lizards, you name it. Maybe it's normal?
Except Kelly Anne doesn't like animals. She's afraid of most of them, in fact; the simple concept of her feeding a snake sets you chuckling. You pull the box further out, looking for an answer, and another box comes with it.
This one is filled with clothes. Again, normal, if they weren't the opposite of everything you've ever seen Kelly Anne wear. She's a one-piece dress kind of girl, and when you get up and look in her closet, you find evidence of that, and the aprons and smocks she wears every day. The clothes in the bucket are rough, roguish and masculine.
Wondering about the possibility of Kelly Anne leading a double life, you replace the buckets, water the plants, and [[leave|lighthouse]], closing the door behind you.
<<if visited("shapeshifter")>>You know what's coming, what this evidence leads to, but still find the need to treat it slowly, so not startle anyone.<<endif>>

From the boathouse, you can see into the window of the kitchen. Kelly Anne is washing dishes, fiery red hair up in a bun. As she wipes her brow, you think you see the soap stick to her skin, coloring... more of her than you'd imagine a pure white you shouldn't think is possible. It goes back to normal while you stare.

You knock on the kitchen window and ask if Kelly Anne wants to come out in the boat with you. She flushes, looks around the kitchen as though someone would catch her and care, and agrees.
You two do a quick round of the inlet. You go so fast she screams at one point, and you break so suddenly when she does that she slams against your back, having been sitting behind you. The spots where her skin was in the sun are warm, the rest cool as the ocean water.
You notice now how shiny her skin is, almost like fish scales, it reflects the sun in a special way. You once thought it was just sunscreen.
You ask over the purr of the engine, <<if $convo eq 0>>"I think your dresses are really cute, but I feel like you never wear anything else. Do you not like pants?"
She laughs, "Pants are so constricting! I can't believe anyone wears them."
You laugh as well, panicking a little inside at the obvious lie.
<<elseif $convo eq 1>>"Why did you all get so worked up over that octopus dying?"
She frowns, saying, "The mimic octopus is sort of like, our family symbol, I guess? We feel a big connection to them. They don't live anywhere near us though, so the fact that the only one any of us have ever seen in person showed up dead... feels like an omen." She shrugs. "The kids just got kinda scared and sad because mom and I were stressed by it."
<<elseif $convo eq 2>>"You told me you don't really like animals before, is there a reason?"
She shrugs. "I just never got along with them. Plus, they're the enemy of a clean house! Try to keep a carpet vacuumed with a shedding dog all over it."
You laugh together.<<endif>>

You spy on Kelly Anne through the boathouse windows, as she goes around and waters the plants. Once in a while, the water splashes her, and the shine of the light makes her seem briefly translucent.

"Yay!" the kids squeal when you come over to them.
<<if $play eq 0>>The kids give you a stick as a sword and proceed to beat you with sticks of their own, claiming that you are the evil ruler and need to be defeated.<<elseif $play eq 1>>You are the child in a game of house where Jasmine is the mom and Cody is the dad.

She throws it immediately when Jasmine says, "Look! The dragon!"<<endif>>
As you play, you realize you have no idea what color the children's hair and eyes are. In the light, their eyes cycle from blue to gray to green to hazel to brown to golden and back around, reflecting the colors of the environment. And often their red hair gets so shiny in the light it gleams platinum.

Kelly Anne claps her hands over her mouth, paling. She lunges forward at you, hands open, imploring.
"Don't tell anyone!"

"I was just thinking about you and everything I've learned since I've come here," you say.
Kelly Anne smiles too, "Yeah, I know that's the point of a rebirth placement, to make it seem like you've always been here, but it really feels like you have." She pauses, blushing. "What have you learned?"
You present your [[evidence]].

You go on, trying to break the tension, "Listen, I won't tell anyone. It's no business of mine if you have two or three or ten identities, y'know, I was just curious."
Kelly Anne blinks. "Identities?"
Your eyebrows rise. "Yeah, I thought you were living a double life as a boy who loves animals. Isn't that what the food and clothes mean?"
Kelly Anne laughs, placing her hand over her brow. "No, but that's very sweet." She gazes at you for a moment. You feel vulnerable under her eyes. They change color, a soft hazel to a bright, unforgiving blue.
"I'm a [[shapeshifter]]."

You begin to list on your fingers. Kelly Anne tenses, realizes she tensed, and tries to busy herself.
"I'm not sure what the color of the kids' eyes and hair are, it seems like they keep changing, but you have red hair, despite Margaret having blond. Margaret is super fit for a pregnant woman, but I never see her move around, and know she eats a lot of ice cream. You don't like to wear pants but have a bucket of them upstairs."
She drops a carrot she was peeling into the sink.
"And! You don't like animals, but have a ton of pet food upstairs. What's up with that?" you give an awkward laugh, voice needling.
She grips the edge of the sink, shoulders tight.
"So," she asks, shaking, "what did you [[learn]] from all that?"

She laughs.
"The clothes are for when I shift into a smaller or larger size. The food is for if the children accidentally shift into different animals."
She lifts her hand in front of her and shows the skin melt together and become shiny, her fingerprints becoming suction cups. Her arm becomes a slick and noodly octopus arm.
"My family descends from octopods," she begins. "The story goes that we were gifted with intelligence and allowed to ascend to the height of human by god, but once we were human we used our new freedom to defy god and sin, so most of us were returned to the form of octopods. The exception is the few of us who were able to hide from the eyes of god by worshipping faithfully."
Kelly Anne gazes out the kitchen door, down the hall to the front porch, where Margaret calls out to the children to be gentle.
"Margaret was a nun, like her mother, and her mother's mother. She left the convent to have children," she says. "Her devotion protects us now, but I will probably have to do the same."

"Yes," she says, "I can be a million different people, and god only likes one of them."

"Even if there is only one god, there's a devil who's just as powerful, right?" you say.
Kelly Anne shivers. Margaret comes into the kitchen.
"What are you talking about?" she asks. Her eyes shift from hazel to a vibrant orange.
Kelly Anne grabs your arm, as though protecting you. "If we get our power from a different deity, we don't have to bow to god anymore."
Margaret stares at you both, wide-eyed. She grows angry like a blossom unfurling. "That's heresy, Kelly Anne!"
"But it could be [[freedom]]!"

"Fine, but not in the house. I'll have no demons cross this threshold until we can be sure they endorse us personally," she acquiesces, to your surprise. Kelly Anne shouts and hugs her. She seems actually invested in this one-off plan you proposed.

You swat bugs as you walk, despite leaving a trail of bug spray wherever you step. Kelly Anne doesn't seem to attract them. She says bugs are drawn to the carbon dioxide you exhale, so she simply switches her breathing mechanism to one that takes CO2 and gives oxygen instead.
You go a little wild about this, like wow how the hell does that work, settling down when Kelly Anne says, "This is it."
You decide to do the ritual at the spot where the mimic octopus, one of Kelly Anne's distant relatives died and shifted into sand.
Before you begin, you have second thoughts.

"You don't think it'll work?" she asks.
You shake your head. "No, I just think it's more dangerous than I considered at first. What if something bad happens, and we end up possessed or haunted or something?"
Her face fallen, she looks over the bags you've brought full of ritual equipment. She picks up the wooden cane.

"Okay," you say, and take Kelly Anne's hand. You've done most of the work to leave her with plausible deniability before god. "Time to do this thing."
She turns the light off on your phone, and slips it into your pocket, gripping your hand tight.
You [[incantate]].

"Sorry," you say.
"It's okay," she insists.
You leave. When you come down the beach the next morning, a mimic octopus lies in the ebbing tide, living, waiting. No ritual effects to be seen.
"Kelly Anne," you speak to it. It tucks into the water, by remains staring at you.
"You better go," you say, "it'll be too cold for you soon. I'll tell everyone, don't worry."
The octopus shifts in color: pink and red of love, blue of sorrow. You say goodbye.

"Kelly Anne and her family have been resigned to a cruel fate by god. Her kind, shapeshifters, were gifted their bodies, and had them stolen away for misconduct that you, I think, would find becoming. We ask you to take command of their gift for yourselves, to allow them to live outside the realm of god. In exchange..."
You look at Kelly Anne. <<replacelink>>She nods.<<becomes>>She nods.
You think about shapeshifting, how it would've saved you. Why be reborn when you could simply disappear, become a rock on the side of the road? Why suffer a single life when you could run away, become anyone or anything? Why be held down by this fortress of a body, impenetrable by desire? Why not allow your monster to be made?
You begin to cry. You step forward and spill the drops of Kelly Anne's blood, collected in a canning jar, onto the paper in the center of the circle. Kelly Anne seems to hesitate before she takes your hand again. What does she see? Are you changing?
A [[heat]] rises from the circle. The night seems to darken around you.<<endreplacelink>>

You flinch as a voice echoes inside your mind. Kelly Anne does the same.
"Say no more." The demon's voice is a collective, unidentifiable, spilling out like a gong. "For the pleasure of spitting in god's face, I'd gladly take a family under my wing."
Kelly Anne cries, "Thank you! Thank you so much!" You hadn't realized the years she has dread her future devotion.
After a moment where only her sobs are heard, the circle cools, and you hear the voice again, softer, "What were you going to exchange?"
You take a deep breath.

"Well, I suppose you are lucky today. The fate of a family has been given to me. I require no exchange."
Tendrils reach out from the black mass and grab you and Kelly Anne by the wrists. It sears spots into your skin, like octopus suckers.
"Remove all symbols of god-worship from your house, and replace them with symbols loyal to the devil, and you will be protected by me," the demon commands. You both nod. The tendrils leave you.
"Goodnight, pets," it whispers, and the heavy blackness starts to fade, replaced once again by the stars and water sparkling beneath the moon.
You and Kelly Anne hug, tight and crushing. She weeps into your shoulder, shivering, for a long time.

She turns to you and the skin of her face seems different, plush and wet, like an octopus. You jolt.

Upon opening this journal, you find people. Every two-pages for the first forty holding the profile of a person--their name and age, birthday, physical traits, heritage, other profiling data like that. What is their socioeconomic status; do they have healthcare? How often do they visit the doctor; what medical issues do they have? Many of them are disabled to varying degrees, from blindness to untreated bipolar to severe narcolepsy.
Each two-page spread contains this information on the left-hand side, and on the right side, a series of usernames and passwords. Facebook, Twitter, occasionally a LinkedIn or an Indeed, rarely an Instagram.
You look up the person on the first page; her name is [[Willamina Belmont]], and she has a Facebook. She is young black girl and a special agent for an unnamed government office, but you wouldn't be able to tell by her page, which is mostly about gardening and cool cars.
But [[why?]]

You don't know what this means.

"Yeah, I made these people. They're all me." They go to their computer and load a couple of the Facebook pages that you've been snooping around, pointing to the pictures. "I and my friends posed for all of these, and I Photoshopped our faces and the backgrounds to become so many different people and places."
"Why?" you ask.
Rowan shrugs. "At first, it was an experiment into [[white power]]. How were the white people treated versus the brown online? Did they get into more fights, have more friends, what have you? The experiment grew eventually to include gender, sexuality, disability..." Rowan sighs. "But I got [[attached]]."

"People react so differently!" Rowan explains. "This is why most of them have Indeed accounts and resumes too. The difference in response candor and time to women versus men, to people who are obviously not white versus whites, to people who are openly gay on their social media versus straights. No matter how good the resume, the white man got the call back. And forget about the disabled people." They waved their hands, frustrated.

"Are you still... those people too?"
You think about their names, their differences, all their little pieces that made them. They couldn't possibly fit in one person without stretching them out, and creating tears.
Rowan rubs the back of their neck. "Yeah, I... I've just made the journal digital now. There's more people. I'm up to twenty-five, including my, uh... The one of me that you see now."

It was a valiant idea, but in the same way that climbing Everest is deadly and requires a team, tackling inequality the way they did was bound to avalanche down on them.
"What am I supposed to do?" Rowan defends. "Just let them die?"
You restrain yourself from laughing, because you realize this is serious for them.
"It may seem stupid, but seeing a therapist is my first bet," you answer. Rowan deflates.
"My friend said the same thing," they admit.
You gesture into the air, "I'm sure anyone you ask will." You pause for a minute, examining their downtrodden face. "I'm not saying it's bad. I'm saying feeling locked into managing the lives of twenty-five people is not healthy, because looking at the state of this place before I came, you can barely manage one."
Rowan nods. You smile.
"Plus, they won't die. You'll always live on in the internet, however strangely."

But are those really you? Even the ones who are actually you, who have your name and face on a webpage for anyone to see... is that you? Or a curated version of you? A perfect version, however imperfect.
It doesn't matter to you now. You were entranced by that delicate web of humanity, the circular matter of hand-forged relationships. The way people strike each other, balance each other... You want that. You feel isolated. Your self, excess. You need more, more containers for it.
"I'd like to help," you say. "Your experiment, I mean."
Rowan's eyes widen, then crush as they smile. "I see." They pull up Gmail, log out, and let you onto the create a new log in page. "First step is always an email."
