quantum and such

I've checked out everything I could think of. There's no trace of Erynne's people. There's no sign that there was ever a gig here, either, but that doesn't necessarily mean much.

It's quite easy to be immune to some parts of the mojo. They sing, and people in the same room won't hear the music, unless they want to know about it. I've heard a guy sing to a girl that he wanted her to leave him alone. He forgot the words as soon as they were out of his mouth - she remembered, though.

Human memories and emotions are linked, and it's complex, and that's got a lot to do with how the gigs work. It's got a lot to do with why the gigs get forgotten, too.

After Erynne went to Willy's she seemed convinced that there were no twins of the people who'd been wished in. I'm not so sure. There's no reason why the wish she quoted to me would produce another version of me, or of Quaverel - but nobody knows how some justice demons get alternate worlds.

I heard a Physicist sing about it once. His idea was that everything happens somewhere and parallel worlds lie alongside each other, like pages in a book.

That way the people who got wished into this world would be like something that - well, got stuck to the page opposite to the one that we'd come from. There wouldn't be much difference between two pages lying next to each other. Maybe the difference is that the people Astraeia wished in were never here before.

Maybe there being no Quaverel is the difference - I'm not prepared to bet anything that matters on that. Saying that I'm ambivalent about Erynne using my talisman here is putting it very mildly. I don't know what that could lead to.

One thing I do know. Woman who sing about their fiances are usually very proud of their ring. Erynne hasn't got one yet. I'm not sure if she'd go for the idea of just glamoring one, even though I could fix it so it wouldn't get in her way or snag on things.
