"Are you so sure about that, Sanzo?" Hakkai asked, all smiles and cheerful looks and far too much amusement than he probably had any right to show. "If we, for instance, accidentally turned you into a dog of some sort, we could take you out for walks and play fetch. I'm sure Goku would like a pet to keep him company at the temple, wouldn't he?" It was probably bad luck to already be predicting failure like this, but Hakkai had always been the type to consider the worst case scenario and not assume an immediate success; it just made it so much more plausible and satisfying when he nodded sagely and solemnly murmured something like, I was afraid this would happen, right after disaster inevitably struck.
"That would be convenient." Another flat statement, rather than a hopeful one -- clearly, the glass was rarely ever half-full with Hakkai. "There must be a spell along those lines already in effect, however, if you consider it," he mused aloud after a moment, "given how many different languages everyone here should be speaking and writing in. Do you think that it just doesn't extend to anything magical?"
