2nd footnote [video] a curious morning?

[Why is a raven like a writing desk? There is only one explanation: The djinni taking that form buggered it up. How else could one mistake furniture for being a bird?

Bartimaeus, in contrast, paints a fine picture of a raven as the video starts up - his beak is even the right colour! (Though he will forever maintain that his first interpretation featured such a fetching shade of blue in the beak that the species ought to evolve in emulation.)

Yes, he is currently out and about as a raven. Sized sufficiently to carry his record, which he's toted out to The Green after a quick, tight circuit to see what his feathered friends took to wing about. Though he's not so foolish as to head into the forest to discover the true details. They can summon and bind him to that task all he likes, but showing initiative to risk his essence isn't Bartimaeus's idea of a good time.]


Quite a bit of excitement over one minor Detonation, but no harm done. Just a few feathers ruffled. I don't sense or see anything on the seven planes to get worked up about.

[Then again, he also does not realise that while his shapeshifting's survived more or less intact, the rest of his abilities are diminished. Do you really want to trust a potentially blind djinni that thinks he can see?

In the meantime, Bartimaeus is unconcerned and begins to preen his feathers. After a moment, he ends the feed.]

Haven't had much good luck with them either. The only spirit I know is possessing my friend and is a pretty big dick about it.

I know, we are a insipid bunch. Maybe you should talk to him and convince him to do better things with his time.

One out of two isn't bad. That he is, and he's currently sitting inside a mage wearing a coat with more feathers than you have.

[Who knows, maybe this might actually end up helping Anders.]

[It does puns. Awesome.]

He's done a lot of squawking about it lately. You should really give him your two cents about it since he doesn't seem to have any of his own.

Calls himself Justice. He goes on for hours about how hard he is.

That wouldn't bother me too much if he wasn't living inside my friend.
