video - open to both courts
[ Alice is outside of Caer Scima's courtyard in a brisk walk. She has the vorpal blade in one hand and elven sword in another. It feels strange, the sword. It's heavier than what she's used to and the way she uses it, she's not experienced in it. As usual, the way she attacks is frenzied, without a care of her own well-being, always bordering on being feral. She's already tried clubbing them with the knightmare hobby horse to no avail. The fact it didn't affect them leaves her visibly startled.]
It wasn't enough that we already made amends that we spilled blood on Death's Altar?!
[ She's cornered. Her mind's visions are twisted, there's a glimpse of something from her past. Fire. She is small, smaller than she is now. The way her visions twist together, it's hard to tell if it is a memory or a hallucination. She is small again, covered head to toe in bandages, wheeled down a dark, gloomy hallway by strangers-]
Stop it.
[ Alice warns holding out the curved sword. Now that her hands are shaking and she's nearly in a panic because what she fears most is fire.
You cannot help them.
But she refuses to fully succumb to this, she's never been this fearful in Drabwurld, not like this.]
[ She will not be pushed around, not anymore. She'll let the hounds of Hell have it by killing them. The horrified look on her face turns to a look of utter glee. She'll kill them.
She'll make sure they'll stay dead.
Because of the way she stabs them, even when they're dead.]

Re: video;
Something stirs in her when she hears the word "Seelie", causing her to push back a dog with the vorpal blade in addition to the sword in her left hand. She's just not that good of a sword fighter. Once Alice gets free space and catching her breath for air, she responds.
She resents the Seelie, but she's young. She doesn't need to get involved. ]
You need to stay inside as far away from them as possible. They've made their way over there, I'm sure.

[ She doesn't say it with arrogance, but matter of fact, even a little icy. She twirls the vorpal blade in her hand and is committed to going back to work, in a sense. ]

--What kind of world are you from?

[ She doesn't mean to snap. She would say she comes from poverty-stricken circumstances in the slums of Whitechapel, London. Not now. ]
It's best that you stay indoors, unless your side hasn't barricaded the doors already.

[ She falters, but what can she do? This girl is in a terrifying situation and looks so eerily calm about the entire thing, and even looking at what's going on, Kelsi's biting back a whimper. This is too much. ]
...Please, please let me know when you're safe. I know we don't know each other, but--just.. Can you do that?

She sympathizes, but she hides it. ]
I shall.
