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?

[ Thorin looks largely unimpressed by her tone or demeanor. Though he understands the sentiment, by now he knows better. ] I would not be too hopeful. There are many a powerful people in these lands, and none have yet found a way to force the monarchs into saying or doing anything they do not wish to.

[ He shakes his head. ] I've not met her. She might not be here.

( whatever old guy you and your beard can be as unimpressed as you want, cassie blake doesn't give even half a shit. ) Well, they weren't Blackwells, were they? ( she purses her lips. combine witch powers with headstrong teenagers and what do you get? REFUSAL TO LISTEN + FIRE!! ) Because I am.

Well, if you do meet her, do me a favor and tell her Cassie's looking for her?

[ His beard has absolutely nothing to do with this. ] I could not tell you, as I do not know what a Blackwell is.

[ He nods once. ] I will.

( it has everything to do with this and everything in the universe. it's like the number 42. it is the answer to life's greatest question. ) Blackwell is a family name. And it holds quite a bit of importance, actually.

( then she eeks out the tiniest, fakest of smiles because she is just not in a good mood. thorin you have caught her at the worst time. truly truly sorry. ) I appreciate it.

[ Well. That is quite a lot for just one beard. ] Not here, it does not. However, I wish you luck regardless.

[ She already manages more of a smile than he himself ever would, much less so to a stranger. She might be in a bad mood at the moment, but that for him is a permanent state.

Still, he returns her thanks with one single tilt of his head. ]
