first spell ☥ video ☥ open to both courts.

( The fresh-faced teenager that appears to the network should -- repeat, should -- be full of life and exuberance. She's a very pretty face, with sunshine-blonde hair and bright blue eyes, and her expression is dripping with irritation, frustration, rage; it's tinged with fear, too. But there's also something darker, lurking beneath the surface, flickering behind those eyes. )

I don’t appreciate being black-bagged. ( She scowls into the locket. ) In fact, I don’t appreciate any of this. The kidnapping, the dragging me here, the fact that I can’t seem to leave despite my best efforts... The way every single thing in my family’s book is conveniently just slightly out of the range of reasonable difficulty with only one person... You brought me here alone on purpose, didn't you? What is this? What are you planning?

( Then, in that darker tone, as her face takes on an almost shadowed expression, she murmurs. ) Do you have my sister?

Thanks for the heads up. ( sounds like the best life ever just began, fuck this place. ) Guess I'll have to march myself up there, then, won't I?

[she likes that response.]

Best idea I've heard. They've got to at least tell you something. [a beat.] What's your sister's look like?

Brunette, brown eyes. About five feet, eight inches tall. Thin-ish. Definitely the type of girl most guys turn their heads for. ( cassie is actually planning to march up there and set fire to something by the way oo p p p s s s )

[it's the way cassie puts it, pulls some softness into jem's expression; she hasn't a sister of course, but that fond way of talking about a sibling is dead familiar. comes out of her own mouth, come the topic of kieren.]

Got it. I'll tell you straightaway if I find her.

[jem approves of this method of dealing with the monarchs.]

( cassie and diana became best friends before they actually learned they were related, too. it's been a very emotional journey. plus cassie accidentally stole diana's boyfriend. she's a life ruiner. she ruins lives. )

Thanks, - ( she drifts off, her tone rising in a question, silently asking the girl's name. )

[oops, cassie...]

Jem. Jem Walker. Circumstances are shit, or I'd say 'nice to meet you.'

Yeah, same. So uh -- what castle are you in? I'm the one called -- Scima? I think that's how it's pronounced. Weird.

That's the one. Means both of us are Unseelie, whatever that really means.

[she knows there are two courts, vaguely remembers the stories from when she was little, but hasn't really sussed out the difference between them yet — the real one, the reason why some people end up in this castle and some in the other.]

I'm starting to think there's not much meaning behind it at all, aside from evening the odds on the opposing sides of this weird skirmish. ( though she has her hunches based on her own little tainted dark magic soul. )

I think so too.

[not like she hasn't heard the things some people say about unseelie by now, but she wouldn't believe it; not with kieren here at any rate.]

Stupid to expect people to fight for a bullshit fairy war just 'cos they're told to.

If I'm understanding this right, half of us are here against our will anyway. Unless they start offering some major incentive, they're screwed.

Half? [she asks, surprised.] Isn't it everyone?

Not from what I understand. Apparently the people in the Seelie court agreed to this?

We get kidnappings, and they get asked nicely?

[RUDE???]

Right? Little bit screwed up.

Lot bit screwed up. Jesus.

We got the short end of the stick.
