--obody eat the meatpies!

[ guess who's just barely turned her locket on before shouting her Very Important Message at it? this girl. the only light in the room is a dim candle at the other side of the room and the glow of the video feed, but her eyes are still glowing a bit, a bright green, and she's obviously not in a trance but she totally just had a prophetic dream.

even if it is super.. vague.. ]

For the next - [ quick, math! ] - four days and three nights - [ thinkythink ] - not including this one, don't eat the meatpies. None of them. Not even a bite.

It'll kill you. Maybe.

[ her voice is still rough with sleep and she's got a dark red smudge on her cheek from where the heel of her hand was pressed to it when she fell asleep a few hours before, but. well. she seems totally serious. so, so serious about dem meatpies. ]

I don't know why and I don't know what causes it and I don't know who exactly could end up dead, but. Just to be safe, I'm going to say that nobody should eat them.

-- At least, I think it was a meatpie. It could have been any kind of pie, but they were little, you know? Those little personal pies they always have at the feast, and you can get them in the- you can ask for them anytime. [ wuhh she's tired. crashing fast, even as she's gesturing "LITTLE PIE, THIS BIG!!" with her hands at the camera.. ] I saw a people eating them, and then dropping dead. Quick flashes of it. No details. S'just- the pies.

Okay.

Going to go back to sleep now. But don't eat the pies.

[ sleepy nodnodnodnodnod, and then she's shutting off her locket. and she might not even remember this later, not in full detail, but. well. there's that. ]



[ ooc: this isn't actually anything ..important, I just wanted to futz with Rachel's canon abilities a bit here in a silly way. which I have a permissions post for here if anybody wants to actually have their character choke on a pie, hahaha. or whatever! always up for plotting vague vision things just to mess with characters' heads. could be important things, or silly things like this. but yeah. nothin' to read into here though, which is the main point of my ooc note c: ]

Who would eat a meat pie in the first place? [Those look hella nasty.]

video.

[truesight]

A lot of people eat meat pies. That's why this is so alarming!

[roses_in_winter]

I always thought they smelled funny...

[truesight]

--Most of the foods here smell a little funny, though.

[smithwork]

Did you mean the festive mince pies or actual meat pies? Because there are a lot of the former at the Station but I haven't seen many of the latter, and people might get confused by their names.

[ have a tired thinky face for a second ]

I don't know. I want to say the meat pies for sure, but I didn't smell anything- [ sometimes she can! ] - it's just a feeling. Ugh, I wish it wasn't so foggy.

[baseborne]

[Literally has a bite of meat pie halfway to his mouth when he spots this video.

Yes, he is partaking of a midnight meat pie. Don't judge him.]

What? Did you poison them? Why are you warning men off, then?

[truesight]

Me? Why would I poison the meat pies and then tell you all not to eat them?

[ how rood!!! ]

-- Gods, what are you eating? You need to stop!

[herotypical]

So huge party-sized apple pies are still green-light-for-go, right?

[ IMPORTANT QUESTIONS. ]

[truesight]

Um. Yeah.

[ not a judgey tone, just sleepy-thinking as she talks ]

Yes. I saw one single person, at a time, taking bites from one little pie, and then just dropping. Done. So-

Sure, you can still have your pie party.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ what in the name of hades ]

So now we're up against deadly meat pies? That's, like, the scariest thing this place has thrown at us yet.

[truesight]

It kind of is. [ at least with Leo she doesn't feel the need to be sitting up and looking Very Serious. her head drops back down onto the pillow, the video a little crooked where she sets her locket down on the pillow next to it ] Of all the things to have a vision about. Of course it's pie.

[snipers]

[ ???? meat pies sound so gross. ew ew ew. ]

Eugh. Don't need to tell me twice.

[truesight]

[ she laughs ]

Great. Good. I mean, sorry you don't like the pies since they're kind of a staple around here, but it's good that you don't eat them, in this case.

[ well, that's definitely a familiar sight, isn't it? not necessarily a welcome one, but- familiar all the same. glowing green eyes and a prophecy? sounds like Oracle antics to him.

Percy stifles a yawn as he opens up the feed, clearly a certain demigod isn't asleep the way he should be. ]

Wow, this is pretty serious, huh? Crazy meat pie shenanigans.

[truesight]

Right? Of all the things.

[ she's just going to faceplant into her pillow like she did while talking to Leo. ]

Of course nobody's going to believe me because why would they?

[indomitably]

[ her first thought is suspicion. But she dismisses it for logic. ] I doubt that you would be telling us if it was by your own hand. How do you know this?

video;

[truesight]

I had a dream about it. [ which she can say to people she knows, but then it clicks ] A vision, I had a vision. Those come true.

video.

[endurecer]

Meat pies.

[ good. gods. ]

Are you sure it wasn't a personal— pie that didn't involve meat?

[ of all the questions she ever imagined asking, this was not one of them. ]

video.

[truesight]

No, they were brown in the inside and hot enough to steam when they dug their forks into it.

I guess it could have been a dark berry pie, but my gut says meat.

[chaoticwhimsy]

[Lumina was sleeping when this turned up on her locket, loud enough to wake her up, so Rachel is getting a bit of a glare from the tween.]

Congratulations, that's the lamest prophecy ever.

[truesight]

You're the- lamest prophecy ever.

[ her expression scrunches up a bit at that, a hand moving to rub at her eyes ]

Though it wasn't a prophecy, it was just a vision. A stupid, blurry vision. It's amateur hour over here, apparently.

[video]

[notyetlegend]

Sounds like we have some terrifyin' meat pies tae contend with instead of each other.

[She doesn't eat them herself but she does eat meat.]

Regular meat's okay though, right?

[video]

[truesight]

Yeah. Well, the people in my dream were only dying after eating the meat pies, so, technically that's all I'm warning against, but who's to say the meat in them wasn't what made them keel over? [ this vision was sO LAME ]

But for the sake of this specific vision, yeah. Just meat when in pie form.

[ex_bronze361]

Don't eat the pies, got it.

[ and she'll spread the word, because she takes rachel visions very seriously -- even the sort of silly ones, that don't make much sense. annabeth nods her head, like running through possibilities, thinking of the better questions to ask, but she's already got most of the information she needs. it'll kill you. probably. ]

I'll head to the Great Hall and keep people from eating them. At least it's only for a few days, right?

video »

[truesight]

Okay. Yeah. Don't go crazy, though. S'late. It can wait.

[ or it's early, whoooo really knoooows? ]

If people are still willing to eat pie after someone yells "don't eat the pie!" on a public network, then chances are they're also going to be dumb about listening to someone tell them the same in person.
