"It's not feelings, though, Ilya. It's like... you can't interact with them. You can't be part of their story. They can't be part of yours. I know books make you FEEL stuff, but this is different than you being part of the same reality." Phoebe felt the railing shudder, and she decided to casually slip off and just lean against it instead. Not that she was afraid, just that she was tired of sitting. "You can't have a hero without something for them to succeed against. To win over. That's what the cursed necklace is for."

If this was philosophy, then maybe it wasn't so boring and awful as all that. "I want a lesson. You can't trick me!"

It probably was shade, even if he didn't notice. Especially if he didn't notice, actually. Was she jiggling the railing for real?? Ilya's eyes widened though his subtle smile was present still.

It was true what she was saying. "Yeah. So, you're looking for reciprocal... relationships with characters." Was it even called that? It was just interactions which can't be one-sided. He could let out a small sigh of relief when she finally decided to hop down from the death trap. Whew, he didn't have to keep a close eye on her anymore. "I am not keen on being a part of people's stories. I enjoy observing their stories and interactions with others, it's more fun for me. I get to criticise and approve without having any impact on my life." Who wouldn't love their life to be stable and uneventfully peaceful?

The dragon warrior queen was a hero? Huh. Ilya could've sworn she worked better as a villain. He gave what Fee suggested a thoughtful moment anyway. "If you say so. She's not a hero in my story. She can be just a strong creature with a royalty title." Was he coming off as too boring? He was, probably. It was like he purposefully tried to keep his life boring and stale. There were so many psychological layers to that he didn't know how to unravel yet.

Philosophy lessons? "I am nowhere near qualified to provide that." Was that a teasing joke? Was she serious? He was. He was both serious and mellow.
