If there are any kids- both big and small- who don't want to be alone right now, I'm making hot chocolate and blanket forts in the dining room.

Also, bring a blanket.

[ Curufin brings a couple of blankets and his flute. ]

Tony, I know how to build a couch fort, I've had lots of practice in childhood and in one of my worlds. I'll play some soothing music, too.

This is a damnable situation. [ You can tell how disheartened he is, after all his efforts to befriend Xue Yang with the hope of persuading him to the side of reclaiming his own life and soul. ]

[Tony reached out and gave Curufin's shoulder an affectionate squeeze when he came close. He offered the best smile he could muster, which wasn't that bright.]

Then you're in high demand here, my friend. This would work better if we had chairs with high backs instead of these bench seats, but maybe you can figure something out. And your flute playing is always welcome.

[He did sigh at the reminder.]

I've been told the person who did this might not have been aware of it. There are certain people here who 'host' other entities. This might be one instance of that.

[ Curufin smiled a little in return when his shoulder was squeezed. He appreciated the gesture. ]

I'll work on the project. It's always possible to contrive something. After all, the art of couch forts is the art of contriving.

[ Now, that was a thing he hadn't known! -- that some people were mediums for other beings. ]

That would explain the person's strange appearance, then. It would have to be some entity with enormous power, to make their host appear as something very different than we normally see.
