second bull ( video )

( locked to Seelie )

I pray for those who've left the castle of Caer Glaem. [She dips her head gently, though she still finds herself at a loss for how she can help, do something.]

I know I am not the only one, [Fine lady or not.] who knows not what her presence in this realm could do. I do not understand this war, but I am here regardless. I have taken time to learn the court here, and I would like to ask how I could serve. I am not skilled in any craft nor have I any supernatural abilities. But I have two hands and a willingness to learn--

[She pauses.] I helped with the injured during the last attack, and though there are those called out, I'm not sure what use I could be.

[She doesn't want to be some spoiler princess-esque type. If she's learned anything, she must be proactive in her own life lest she fall aside for the wants of others.]

Perhaps I should set something up if none have started. A sanctuary for injured and affected.

Somewhere that isn't flammable.

I would think that be a given with the state of things.

I don't underestimate people in combat and I don't overestimate them in conversation.

[ Or, well. He tries not to. ]

You think so little of me then? [Eyebrow raise.]

Just about all strangers, until I get to know them.

[She looks like he's just insulted her before a slow grin spreads across my face.]

You sound like my brother. I am sure he would say the same.

[chromosomes]

And when you say that, you sound like my sister.

[ Okay, relaxing a little now. ]

Hope you weren't offended, ma'am.

[ Ma'am John she's sixteen. ]

[She's a ma'am in her world, John.]

If you have a sister, how could I be? I have a soft spot for brothers. [Except the one, but she doesn't outright want to kill Juan, yet.]

If she ever shows up, I'll have to ask you to teach her that.

[ Good-natured ribbing, at the expense of his sister; they'd spent ten years estranged, but being the only survivors of a FUBAR situation tended to make people bond. ]

I am sure I could do that. I have two brothers my elder, and one younger.

My sister's older my two minutes, but it's just the two of us.

Cesare and I are not twins, but he is more a dear friend than just a brother.

[chromosomes]

Is he one of the older brothers?

video;

[pontificus]

He is. He is the one I miss the most.

[chromosomes]

With any luck, you'll find a way home to him.

I pray for it each day.
