[anna shrugs with the sense of "yeah, idk what to tell you", but she and the boat are both back safely, so yeah, it definitely did work. there's more, though, and she thinks back to another conversation that she'd had about things of this nature recently.]

So are you one of Paul's sources? Because I had a very interesting conversation with Paul recently about magic soul bullshit, and he wasn't willing to share any names. [if he is, she doesn't need to lie. if he's not, she still trusts him enough to go into more detail. how could anyone with the life philosophy of "in my defense, it was very funny" be untrustworthy?] I talked to him about the idea of nudging a couple of souls that are already intertwined just a little closer together. That still fall under your domain?
