Finn smiled at Mila as she sat at the table, and her face split into a smile. She unrolled her silverware and placed the napkin across her lap, before picking up one of her club sandwich corners and taking a bite.

“Good call?” Finn asked.

Mila nodded, holding a hand over her mouth. “Ereal ood.” A piece of turkey fell out of her mouth, and she snatched it up off the table, stuffing it back into her mouth before Penny could get it. She chewed the rest of the bite and swallowed. “It was Gregory. He gave me the number for a Valkyrie that contacted him.”

“Holy shit! That’s great.” Finn almost dropped his sandwich in his au jus from the news. “Are you going to call her?”

“I don't know. Probably. Not until we get home.”

Finn raised an eyebrow, but it was Penny who spoke up, holding her steak in both hands, her chin dripping with meat juice. “Shir squee, chi chi.”

“I know.” Mila tried to sink into her seat more to get away from their gazes. “I need to call. I’ll do it, just don't pressure me. I need to be ready.”

Penny nodded. “Chi chi,” she said with understanding, before ripping a chunk of steak off with her teeth.

“What if it’s your blood!” Hermin nearly shouted, a finger rising to the ceiling, as he suddenly rejoined the conversation.

“Oh, my god. Hermin, you scared the shit out of me.” Mila said, pressing a fist to her heart. “What does my blood have to do with a phone call?”

Hermin looked at her like she had gone mad, but let the question go as Garret began nodding. “It could be blood. He is a royal. Mila we can explain with her celestial magic, but Finn has actual royal blood. That could be it.”

Hermin frowned now that the theory was out, he didn't seem to be liking it as much.

“Why would my heritage have any sway over how magic interacts with me. That doesn't make sense,” Finn said, not liking where this was going. Anything that brought his family into it was terrible as far as he was concerned.

“Well, it doesn't. Unless that was what they were trying to do,” Garret admitted. “But it’s the only reason I can figure.”

“So, let me get this straight,” Finn said, taking a bite of his au jus-soaked sandwich and chewing before continuing. “You’re best theory is that the Dark Star is fucking up everyone’s magic, including her own, and specifically making sure it doesn't affect me? That sounds insane.”

The Huldu peered at one another, and Garret nodded. “Well, when you say it like that.”

Finn chuckled. “Yeah, I don't think that's it, guys.”

“Probably right.” Hermin checked an imaginary watch, then glanced around the diner to be sure no one was looking. “Well, it looks like break time is over. Gotta get back to keeping the planet running. Thanks for lunch.”

Both Hermin and Garret vanished in a shower of bubbles.

“Cheap bastards. Left us with the bill.”

Mila reached over and squeezed his hand.
