Yeah, and he's commissioned us before, I designed something for him previously... so I'm not sure why he suddenly ended up with a rock that was magical. Much less why it didn't send him away or something when he handled it.

Sounds like it, that's really cool. It's so far away...
... Did your sister miss you during that time? Are you guys close?
noooo
... She did, yeah. She always messages and reaches out to me, but I'm pretty terrible and responding so.
We're not as close as we could be. I definitely regret it now. [ Clears throat. ] Do you have any siblings?
