*Julian set his jaw for a moment.*
"I was never other than I am now. I have always been this size."

*Her brow furrowed.*
"How does that work?"

"Not very well, to be honest."
*Julian sighed and sat on the ground.*
"At first...I didn't have a body. I was just a spirit. But then I was solidified."

*She peered at him curiously, and went to sit on his lap.*
"How?"

*Julian smiled down at her, fingering the silver chain around his neck, lifting it for her to see.*
"Death gave me this. It keeps me here."
For now.

"Through magic?"
*She asked, though she knew the answer.*

*Julian gave a short laugh.*
"But of course, princess. I did apprentice with the best."

*She grinned.*
"That's good- Being see-though would be bad..."

*Julian shrugged.*
"I would miss not being able to hold you. It is one of the best parts of being solid."

"I'm glad you think so!"

*Julian glanced back to the hole.*
"They miss me. Wouldn't you, if I couldn't play with you anymore?"

*She nodded, and looked toward the hole warily. She thought she was much more fun to play with than some scary looking tentacle-things.*
"Can't they see you anymore?" *she asked cautiously. It was definately not an invitation for them to come out.*

*Julian smiled.*
"Of course they can. We just...can't touch the same way anymore."

"Oh... I'm sorry. You can't be both?"

*Julian sighed and shook his head.*
"It is a small price to pay, but it would be a lie to say that I do not miss them."
