[the locket is being carried, facing outwards, around the castle of caer scima. the feed isn't too bumpy, but it does sway a bit, jerking around every so often as effy avoids tripping over rocks or branches. she's fairly far away from the castle, but that doesn't seem to bother her. every so often she stops, marking a tree with a sharp rock, to be sure she knows her way back.]
Okay.
[she stops momentarily to adjust the locket, turning it around so it shows her face. with her free hand, she tucks the rock away in her pocket and holds up one blue feather, twisting it around quickly between her fingertips.]
It really isn't too hard to find these, is it? They're everywhere.
[fortunately, for her, she doesn't seem to be feeling (or experiencing) the effects of the feathers just yet. she's found two already, within the past hour and a half or so. the effort isn't exhausting, so she's enjoying it. it's like an easter egg hunt. she's only doing it for the sake of figuring out boons, though.]
If anyone wants to come looking, text me.
[or they can follow the marked trees outside of the castle. they're pretty in-your-face.]
Oh, and if anyone's by the station, I'd like a few smokes. Thanks.
[and with that, the locket is closed, ending the feed.]
( ooc: feel free to find her wandering about looking for feathers around caer scima! or, alternatively, find her on her way back. whatever works for you :) )

action.
The ground.
[she's looking at cassie expectantly, a small smile on her features. what's so bad about sitting on the ground?]
action.
action.
What the fuck are you doing--
[but then she glances up, just for a moment, and she sees something blue glimmering in the brush. she moves past cassie, her strides quick, and reaches deep into the shrubbery.
and pulls out a feather.]
How did you do that?
action.
Magic.
action.
[silently, she drops the feather delicately into cassie's lap. she's officially more interested in what she's like.]
Convenient.
action.
action.
[she takes a step back, still facing cassie. effy needs to find a few more to make sure she can keep her deal with erik.]
Can't rely on magic for everything.
action.
( still, cassie stands up again, though not without a couple of poorly masked grumbles, and marches further into the wooded spaces and shrubs and sighs. )
You'd think glowing feathers would be easier to f--hey, look!
( UP IN THAT TREE - remember when you said, effy, do you remember, can't rely on magic for everything? cassie's gonna just... concentrate really hard and make the wind blow the feather right into her hands
eat my shorts, magic is gr8 )

when she tells her to look, effy turns abruptly, thinking something is wrong-- until it's just another feather. she looks up, watches as cassie makes the feather fall right out of the tree. a part of it bothers her, scares her, because she's seeing it happen right in front of her eyes. it's one thing being dragged about into another world, it's another witnessing magic -- a witch -- right before her. she doesn't let it show, though, she just manages to look vaguely interested.]
Nice one.
no subject
cassie holds the feather out to effy. she can find more later. )
How many are you looking for, anyway?
no subject
but, if she's offering, she may as well take it.]
Thanks.
[she gives a small shake of her head.]
Four or five. Yourself?
no subject
( there's got to be a spell behind it, surely. )
no subject
[she crinkles her nose a bit as she glances down at the feather.]
Not going to give them back?
no subject
no subject
[plus, she's not into magic, or really interested in learning how the feathers work. she just wants the reward.]
I want something from the monarchs.

[wink wink nudge nudge do u catch her drift, cassie? she'll give you a discount.]

No. Drugs.
no subject
Um -- thanks for the offer, but... I'll pass? I've seen what they can do to people.
no subject
[she lets out a small laugh.]
Wow, must be rough. Did they eat too many brownies?

[she's never really "lost" anyone to drugs before. she lost herself, once, but it was a one-time overdose, and she didn't ever use that type of drug again.]
