[Jade's Magical Half-Horse Lair]

"I did when I got here. I thought it would be in bad taste given that you didn't change willingly." Walter says simply.
"And that's because I can't do that for you. For Willa and I, it's the freedom of going around without worrying about fashion much. Feeling strong. Being fast. Being a little different. And being ludicrously tall. It's rather hard to put into words, really. But it's not something I could just explain and put in your brain. You'd have to get it yourself, which is why I said to try it. Of course I could change your self-image but that would be a horrible violation of the sanctity of your mind. I only do that when people ask me for a makeover and I want to spare them any dissonance." Walter seems...different. Older? Calmer? Maybe a little more mature? It's hard to say.
