She doesn't know he's leaving, and strictly speaking, she probably won't care all that much. People leave. It's what makes them people.
But he was kind to her once, and few enough people have been.
"Hello." Illyria says to both Tims, never having met Hellspawn but not really fazed by there being two of them, and not realizing that this hello will be goodbye.
"As well as ever." she says, with the usual indifference.
"I do not believe I ever got a chance to express my thanks for the Christmas gift that you left for me. The wish proved to be useful in dealing with a problem."
"I put rest to something that never should have been." she replies, cryptically.
The matter of Giselle was not something she wished to recall, and so it was lucky that she only distantly could.
"It was The Other's curse that made me see through the eyes of a mortal girl, and it was her resemblance to me that brought about her death. So it seemed appropriate that it was your gift that allowed her to return briefly through me, to set things right."
Illyria blinks, the only outward sign of her surprise.
"For good? Why will you not return?"
It couldn't possibly be difficult for him to get here, she thought. Though perhaps there were circumstances that she was unaware of. Perhaps his future was already written, like Fred's.

As right as they could be, anyway.

He shrugs.
"Well, glad I could help someone before I left."
