5 ☭ VIDEO + TEXT | OPEN TO BOTH COURTS + SEELIE LOCK
[ on january 11, the humming of the macarena comes to a sudden and abrupt halt. it's with a hiss of a snake and the sight of a tongue in the very corner of the camera, it's clear luke isn't holding his locket. it's martha who is, but she doesn't make a sound as a little red fox curls into luke's neck and licks his jaw. she's rowdy and restless, but luke tries to smooth her hackles a little with his fingers stroking her fur. as for the man himself, he looks a little tired. ]
[ his voice is quiet, ] Uh, hey guys. [ the fox in his arms nudges him hard on the jaw. ] Woah, hey, calm down.
Look, I need to make this quick. It's getting colder. I'm not really great at knitting, but — Can anyone help me out here? She needs something to keep her from shivering.
I promised someone I'd take care of her. And — [ he meant it when he'd vowed to the black shuck he'd honour his deceased friend. and that even means doing this. ] Yeah, I'm going to need more than one pair of socks and a scarf. We can work out a trade, if you're not willing to knit for free.
[ the fox settles against him, closing her eyes. there's a quiet hiss of ask from martha. ] And if you can knit two long stockings — [ the camera shakes and luke rolls his eyes. ] And maybe four or so ear muffs — I'd be grateful.
[ and though it appears as though luke's wanting to get off his locket as soon as possible with the fox resting against him, it's all an act. encrypting a text for seelie only, he dictates his own audition advertisement for the seers of the court. please note: this advertisement lacks the extravagance of his cow advert from a few days prior. it doesn't help he has a fox that won't leave him alone in his hands. ]

THE DRABWURLD'S NEXT TOP SUPER SEER!
Are you a Seer looking for work? Want to see the Drabwurld through the eyes of High-King Ridire? Think you're strong enough for mind-numbing pain and bright, vibrant colours?
Well, maybe this is the job you've been waiting for!
The Drabwurld's Seer Agency is currently looking for a Seer strong enough to be able to handle the sight of High-King Ridire. It's a glimpse into the future anyone would die for.
ONLY SERIOUS CANDIDATES APPLY WITHIN!
Just drop your name and your qualifications, and we'll see if Tyra chooses you.
Re: seelie lock; text -- haha the trifecta
[Team Green Dream doesn't know what publicists or agencies are.]
I will relay it to them if they have not seen it first. I spoke to my brother about such a thing recently. It is not common to talk about where we are from.

It's kind of taboo — or just a ploy to get money — where I'm from. Even the mortals have "seers" with their own television shows. This whole thing is just a joke to those who don't know Apollo.
[ though, there's a good chance half of them are fake. but at least her world is a little similar to his — even if the lingo doesn't quite translate very well. ]
It's pretty urgent any who possess the Sight and want to see the world as the High-King does lets me know immediately. I have a list to make and I's to draw love hearts on top of.
I want to put the person who can survive seeing almost anything at the top of my list. I'm sure you get why that's important if you're familiar with this.

The afflictions that come with the visions you mean? Cannot someone be well? Not even here?

Basically. I've had a guy in my head once who would've killed anyone else. Almost killed me, actually. I just want to ensure anyone who goes into this knows what's at risk and can at least handle it. Sending kids out blind is what my dad and his lot do. I'm not into repeating what others have done.

In that regard it sounds much like our world, tales told to children to keep them from the woods and the like.
I understand. I can tell you my brother is like to risk it anyway. He has suffered through it for many years.
