Speaker 1: You need to start taking your job around here. Seriously.
For Ramo, I told you I need a willing subject.
He doesn't even know you brought him here. I thought
cats were supposed to be smart enough with your excuses.
Now I'm going to have to do a whole song
and dance to convince him to stay because you couldn't
deliver God's help us. Oh, good evening or night. I
don't know which one the mortals prefer. Not that I'm
not mortal, I'm mortal adjacent. No no, no, no, no, no,
Please let me explain. I can explain why you're tied up.
It's just a safety precaution. I have potions brewing that
could turn you into a goblet or a goblin, and
neither of us want that. I'm young Athena. This is
my lair or house house house yet my house. I
don't like to use the term, which with all its
outdated negative connotations, but for the sake of this conversation, yes,
I am a woman who can cast spells on people,
people like you, but that's not why you're here. For Amo,
my assistant was meant to find me a willing subject
of your qualifications. But it seems he forgot the willing component,
and well you get it if you want, I can
let you go right here, right now, I'll untie you here. Look,
you're free go. Why why aren't you leaving? I haven't
performed a freeze hex for Amo. Did you put a
freeze hex on? Oh? Oh oh oh oh. Well, if
you don't want to run, I suppose that's fine. You're
not a witch, are you? I'm just making sure? Well,
all right, then, my I'm being such a terrible host.
Can I get you something to drink? I have moonwater
if you're thirsty or fresh fairy blood. Yes, fairies are real,
but they're useless to me beyond their delicious blood. Trust me.
Once you've met one fairy, you've met them all. They
think their smallness excuses them from basic decency. Oh here,
moon water harvested during the blood moon. It'll bring you
clarity and strength and possibly charisma. But you didn't hear
that from me. It's an off label. Use anyway. Let
me tell you why you're God's for Amo. You were
supposed to be watching the cauldron. No no, no, no, no,
no no no no no, why oh my gosh, please
please please can you help me? Grab that goblet while
I try to salvage it's left. No, no, thank you.
This is this is my most precious potion. It took
centuries to collect all the ingredients. It's well, it's the
one that was meant for you or someone like you.
Divine Heart's breath. It's a love potion. That's why I
needed a willing participant. God's just half the potion left
right right. It is better than nothing. Thank you for
helping me clean that up here, Sit with me. You
may not be aware, but most witches are part of
a coven. I myself was part of one until I
disagreed with some of the practices, namely capturing unsuspecting people
and giving them love potions. When I found out that
they expected me to trick someone into loving me, I
felt sick. I may hate fairies, but I'm not a monster.
I believe in love. I crave true love. I'm not
sure why they do it. Perhaps they're lonely. I mean
I'm lonely too, but still I would never rob someone
of their free will. My plan for you well, had
Forramo done his job right, he would have brought back
someone who agreed to spend eternity with me. And I
know that might sound crazy, but I believe that the
right person might actually want that too. The plan was
we would drink the potion together and spend the night
in each other's arms while its effects to cold. Put simply,
the potion would have bonded our souls together. You become
the most important person in my life. I become yours.
We feel each other's feelings, crave each other's scent, long
for each other's touch. We become inseparable, soul bonded, irresistible
to each other. I've never felt it, but I've heard
it feels warm. Well. Of course we can't do that.
With half the potion gone, only one of us would
be able to drink the potion. Yeah, you could drink it,
but you would have to trust me to love you back.
Without the power of the potion tethering me to you.
Of course I wouldn't want that. I would be just
like those witches from my old coven, forcing an innocent
person to love me. Besides, I'm not even a good witch.
I ruined the potion I spent centuries creating, and couldn't
even direct for rama well enough to bring back a
willing mate. Now I'm sitting here like a crazy woman,
just hoping that you won't leave. Please, please don't, please
don't leave? What are you doing? I suppose you couldn't
hug me? It does feel nice. I'm just I'm a
failure as a witch. And I knew when I left
that covin it would be hard, but I didn't know
would be this hard to be alone? M What are
you doing? No, don't drink the potion. I don't want
you to. I don't want to force this on you.
How can you possibly want to spend eternity with me?
That's crazy. You don't even know me. You didn't even
know you were going to be brought here. What about this?
What if we both drink half? The effects won't be
as potent, but we'll both be affected equally, only if
you want to? Really? Okay? I apologize for crying. I
just you don't know how long I've I've waited for
a moment like this. Here there we go, half in
each goblet, a half of a half, but better than nothing.
All right? Are you ready? On account of three? One? Two? Three?
Now hold my hands and look at my eyes? Are
you okay? Okay? Bound together, night and day, together forever
we shall stay? How do you feel Hm, we should
cullad down. Yes, that's the best way. You trust me.
I want to be the small spoon. Yes, perfect, No
for am Well, I'm not mad at you anymore. I
suppose you did a good job. You may not have
been willing when you got here, but the fact that
we're here now together, that you wanted to take it
with me, it feels so perfect. It feels so warm,
and you feel so warm. Your son is intoxicating and irresistible. Hm,
you feel it too. I'm surprised that we're able to
feel it since we're only having a quarter of it each,
but m maybe we didn't need it anyway. Mm hmm.
You have such beautiful eyes. Mm hmm, I mean it.
M Oh stop, you don't have to flatter me, but
you can if you want. I do like it. Mm hmm.
Squeeze me tighter, please, Yes, just like that. The only
thing I ever wanted, what's true love? And now I
feel that I finally will experience it with someone who
wants me to. Mm hmm. No more lonely days, no
more nights keeping alone. I'm yours your mind and will
be together forever and ever. Mm hmmm. Why are you
smiling like that. Mm hm m hm. Really, I'm happy
that you're happy too. I never want to stop cuddling you.
I could stay here for thousands of years. Oh no,
you can too. That's part of what the potion gives you.
Eternity with me, us together forever and more, all bonded souls.
Mm hm. Oh my gosh, I feel all fuzzy m
hm I and I feel love and I like it.
Mm hmm I I love you, mm hmmm mmm I do.
Don't let me go, keep holding me tight, and I
want to fall asleep in your arms
