video | evening after the feast | open to both courts

[The video turns on and shows Chloe, a stunning woman with olive skin and pale blue eyes. Her hair, jet black, is tied behind her, and she looks at the camera with smug amusement. It’s probably her typical expression.]

Hello, darlings.

[There’s a notable Australian accent in her voice.]

Since it looks like I’m stuck here for awhile with the rest of you, it seems like a good idea to stock up on some supplies. It’s a dangerous world out there, you know. A girl can’t be too careful.

I could also use some maps of the area. Roads. Obstacles. That sort of thing. I imagine there might be something worth finding out there, too.

And just maybe, if you need something found, I can be the girl to get it for you. Name’s Chloe Frazer. People say I’m the resourceful type.

Are you the charitable type as well?

[ Rhetorical, mostly. She seems to know what she wants. ]

Felix Harrowgate. Less interested in finding things, more so in not drowning beneath silver and purple. Perhaps we could arrange to share notes.

[ Arrange, because nothing's free. ]

And you're not in the habit?

[ Oh, he likes her already. Felix props a hand on his chin, considering. ]

Not that the court isn't charming, but the idea of being cooped up here for the rest of my unearthly life is tediously disagreeable. Unfortunately, so's being devoured by something hideous and fanged.

If you go out seeking, then I'd be interested to hear what you find. [ He rolls his fingers, rings clanking ostentatiously, and a halo of little green lights blooms about his shoulders. ] If it's something particularly interesting, I may be able to help.

I don't think you'd want my dancing.

[ Or, well, anything really. Felix may be a wizard, but that's about all that he is. Not that he's planning on volunteering that tawdry bit of knowledge. ]

I've dispelled curses before, nothing that we encounter here should prove particularly troublesome. [ It's not quite a lie if he has no honest idea of the truth. Plural possessives might also be jumping the gun, but he's not about to waste time worrying over it. ] The fruit of such acquisitions would, of course, remain your own.

The layout of the orchard, a description of the farmer, and a first glance at the plums if you bring them to market. Consider me a botanist.

Darling, if you came back with a cartload of apples I'd be disappointed in us both. We'll call it a bargain then -- and a toast to future ventures.
