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. ]

[Text: Seelie Locked]
One who practices magic. I have been given many magical Gifts including Foresight and Farsight. Farsight allows me to see distant places as if they were before me.
[Ah that question.]
I have been plagued by nightmares since my youth. They have become more detailed over time and I fear they will come true.
[When he says "nightmares", he means all-encompassing visions of horror.]

[ but he finds himself incredibly jealous at the description of this "farsight." for a kid who loves travel, he wishes he could see just where he's heading. it might lead him away from cyclops caves and from titans who only wish to kill him from the inside out. ]
How young were you when you first got hit with one? Just curious.
