[pm] Well, I mean, not all of them are crosses. Or squares. And they all work differently, but mine has a ritual. I don’t know how Giles figured it out, but he did, back in the universe that you probably don’t remember where he was slightly more badass. There was a goblet, and herbs, and he said, “Anyanka, I beseech thee, in the name of all women scorned, come before me”. I didn’t have a choice, and it was all very disorienting. Moral of the story: phone calls are better.
[pm] Got it, phone call preferred method of communication. Only use seagull for extreme purposes. Strange ritual and phrase that I will probably never remember must be said for it to work. Yeah, I’ll probably just use the phone. I don’t know anything about plants or cups or any of that. Kind of a bad artist also.
[pm] Oh, yes. You could send a seagull. You wouldn’t need a ritual for that, though. Unless it were some kind of magical demon tracker seagull.
…In which case, wait— if those exist, why have you been hunting us by foot?
[pm] No I meant the seagull thing that you were talking about before not the bird. There are no magical demon finding seagull birds, not that I know of. And I can’t see how they’d be very useful once they found the demon anyways. If I was a demon I’d just kill it once it found me. Solve that problem right away.
Hey! Maybe there were but they just got all killed off and stuff.
