Earlier this afternoon? Phie blinked in alarm. That most certainly meant that he had been here for much longer than he thought he was. Which meant that she likely had to find the tear in whatever spells had been causing Mr. Dempsey to be trapped here. Even if he hadn’t actually been wandering around for that long, the fact that there seemed to be some magical component to this weather change had her perplexed.

And she was too busy worrying her bottom lip, scratching Tchai by the ears to first notice that he’d asked her a question. “Hmm?” She looked up at him and his quizzical expression before belatedly hearing what he’d asked. “Oh! Er…” Absently, she clutched at the fox in her arms a little more tightly. “Well, I’m - I’m a Seer.” She revealed in a small voice. “And usually my Visions have been to do with the weather, although lately they’ve…seemed to change.” Over the years she’d had plenty of reactions from people when she confided in this bit of information, and she genuinely hadn’t been able to predict who would end up with what reaction. But she found herself hoping that Mr. Dempsey’s reaction ended up on the more pleasant side of possibilities, for whatever reason that had yet to be revealed to her.
