Hmmm. Yes. You get to make a wish. And I shall grant it.
Do you? I would like to feel that in you, when I put eyes and ears on you again. I could smell it in your sweat, your skin, taste it in your mouth. Your tongue will taste like awe, methinks.
Other teeth? Within yours, like a shark? Or another-you? I like pain, it brightens up the mind.
Did you receive mark and wish both?
Hmmm, perhaps I shall leave you my mouth's shape, writ in skin, if you run brave and bold and leap and tumble and chase me with joy. I would need to especially reward this.
It's kinda complicated I'm a werewolf And I couldn't really control what happened to me It's been like that since I was a kid So I asked to be able to turn into a wolf when I want to Instead of it being something that just happens to me Does that make sense?
I carry the genetic memory of the millenia of my mother's order who came before me. I hear their voices at every moment. I could no more escape them than pull the veins from my body.
The ritual to become a Reverend Mother -- the highest rank of Bene Gesserit witch -- is different on every planet. My mother did not know the Water of Life would affect me as well.
It is called Abomination, what I am. To give the mind and power of many ancient, aged souls to an infant is deplorable.
It is a learned skill, the Way. I inherited the memories of every Reverend Mother, including the memories of learning such skills. It is like receiving a memory of weaving a beautiful tapestry -- your fingers would be able to do it. You would become a weaver.
Such is the Sisterhood. My mother defied them, in giving my father a firstborn son. We had already deviated from the path, and my pre-birth was a nail in the coffin. My mother cannot stand the sight of me, now. She left our planet, to escape me.
[ They're concepts that go beyond anything he's contemplated before, like how getting a memory means you've become what the person in that memory was. It sounds like an amazing power to have, but it also sounds like a nightmare if it gets out of control. If you know how to do everything, how are you supposed to pick anything? Does Alia have to worry about whether something was her decision or the memory of someone else's?
He's going to psyduck himself into a headache. ]
That's really horrible Ur mother shouldn't have abandoned u U didn't ask for any of this
[ Imagine if his mothers had abandoned him for becoming a monster. Imagine — and count your blessings that they did everything they could to keep their son safe instead. ]

The month where we weren't really ourselves
They made me think I had bitten u
I liked the taste
no subject
I do remember. Sometimes I think you truly did.
I can remember the way your teeth felt.
Would you do it again?
no subject
With my other teeth, too
If u don't mind the pain
I asked for a wish back home
We did a whole ritual for it
It left a mark on me
U could too
So I remember what ur teeth feel like

I don't have to fully be a wolf to have them, it can just be parts of me
Yea
I got my wish
And the sigil is on my body forever
I'll do that
Whenever u want
no subject
You would show me them? I should like to see.
Was it worth it?
no subject
I think so
I got what I wanted so...
Do u have any wishes of ur own?
no subject
Yes. But it is an impossible one.
no subject
I'm a werewolf
And I couldn't really control what happened to me
It's been like that since I was a kid
So I asked to be able to turn into a wolf when I want to
Instead of it being something that just happens to me
Does that make sense?
What is it?
no subject
That is the most logical thing in the world.
Something similar. I want to be just-Alia, not part of history or destiny or fate. I want to love and be loved and laugh and be happy simply.
no subject
They won't let u?
no subject
This means: I am sister to an emperor who rules the known universe as a god. I gained my powers before my birth. I can only ever be part of history.
no subject
Do u have to be all that here?
It's a different universe
no subject
It is inevitable.
no subject
How come you still hear them?
no subject
I remember everything, from that instant.
no subject
Why did she do that?
no subject
It is called Abomination, what I am. To give the mind and power of many ancient, aged souls to an infant is deplorable.
no subject
It's kinda shitty of them to call u that
U didn't do anything wrong, ur mom did
And even that was an accident
