Video | Unseelie

[grandemalion]

[Po is lying on his back somewhere, the video of him is from the side. He has a large piece of ice wrapped in cloth across his face. Particularly over his eyes.]
I'm told there are those that know ice magic. If possible, I would like to learn.

[he lifts the ice from his face. One eye is swollen shut while the other is just slightly bruised. Yes, he was in a fight. Yes, it was awesome. Yes, he's paying for it now. He smiles slightly at the video feed before putting the ice back over his eyes.]

I think those in charge of the ice houses are getting tired of me begging for pieces. If not for me, do it for the poor souls whose livelihood I'm threatening.

It's become something of a daily routine.

Not that you can't learn magic, but have you considered an efficient first aid kit? The Unseelie's own midach should have something for you. [When she's around again.]

[grandemalion]

The skin isn't broken. It's little more than swelling. Had it been something worse I would have spoken with a healer.

[as for the midach...]

Do they have access to a never ending supply of ice?

[uneulogized]

Healing balm. For both, actually. Ice might help, but not in the long term. You follow?

[grandemalion]

[He gets it but at the same time his laughing like there's a joke only he's privileged to.]

I would hate to deplete their supply but I'll try some. If it's anything like Raffin's balm, I may still need the ice. [...and he starts to disolve into laughter.]

and something to turn my hair back to it's regular color.

Tell me something, do headache remedies here have the side effect of turning one's hair blue or is that limited to my world?

[ A man with dark hair and the strangest eyes you've ever seen... Well, if they weren't quite so bruised, she wonders if this isn't Katsa's friend. She doesn't ask, uncertain, instead focusing on what's happened to him. ]

Have you seen a healer? I think they could help you more than that ice would. But if it's ice magic you're looking to learn, I could help wit hthat.

Not this particular time but I can tell you nothing is broken. It's only swelling which can be relieved with ice and rest.

[his head turns but he doesn't take the ice off.] I would be grateful to learn, for more than the sake of my face.

[arla]

Fair enough.

[ She gives him another glance over, trying to gauge the swelling, but ultimately decides to take his word for it. ]

Do you know of any magic from your own world? Are you a mage?

[scorchedchivalry]

I was gifted with ice magic more than a year ago. It will take time to learn, but I am willing to teach.

[Saber recalled Po being in the Drabwurld before, but she was unsure if Katsa had spoken to him about that. It would be best for her not to assume such a thing and bring it up herself.]

Video

[grandemalion]

Time is something I have happen to have an abundance of. I don't expect I'll be creating chunks of ice on my first try.

[scorchedchivalry]

If you are willing to put the work in...

I am Saber. Is there a particular location you frequent? We can establish a training schedule.

[survivra]

You're milking it. I don't think I've hit you so hard.

[ But with the accusation comes concern. ]

But if I have... shouldn't we be avoiding faces, in our fights?

[grandemalion]

I would never milk it. As you can see, I am so terribly injured. [He's just gonna play dead for a second. He's fine.]

We can but don't forget, I am the idiot who asked to do that drill. So, it's really my own fault.

It was fun though, wasn't it?

[survivra]

Poor Po. I know how this must irritate your Lienid vanity. You may as well just stay in bed for good from now on, and I'll bring you stories when I visit.

[ She rolls her eyes but can't suppress a smile, no matter how tightly she's trying to purse her lips. ]

It was fun. More than I've had in a while. Though I think it would be even more fun if you do learn magic with ice, and not just for your face and limbs once we're done.

[She's reminded a lot of that nose Yuri broke for her sake. She definitely didn't like seeing the injury then. And even though this particular set didn't have anything to do with her, Xion doesn't really think she likes seeing it now.]

What happened? Are you okay?

video

[grandemalion]

I'm all right, Xion. This was the end result of sparring with Katsa a little too hard.

It's not that bad. Had she accidentally knocked me out, that would have been bad.

video

[needmetoo]

Oh.

[Don't mind that mixture of intimidation and awe on her face. Katsa's just recently offered to give her some practice/training.]

Only then?

[Everyone's standards of what is a problem and what isn't seems to be so different.]

[digophelia]

Why can't you find someone to treat it? It doesn't look that bad, not yet.

[grandemalion]

I thought ice was treating it.

Or do I really look that terrible?

[digophelia]

It might get infected, then it will look very terrible.

[zerotohiro]

[Sorry if he sounds a little more than amused, Po.]

What've you been doing that it's becoming a daily routine to get punched in the face?

video;

[grandemalion]

Sparring with Katsa. [it's cool, he sounds a little amused about this too.]

video;

[zerotohiro]

[Annnnd there's the look of understanding.]

Yeah, that'd do it. [It's still funny though.] Is it really sparring though if she just keeps hitting you?

[garbage_can]

[ He can't help with the ice, not at all, but he does have to ask. ]

Are you all right?

video;

[grandemalion]

I'll be all right. It looks worse than it is. It was worth it anyway.

video;

[garbage_can]

Good to hear it. A friendly brawl?
