001 [SEELIE LOCKED | VIDEO]
[Well, someone's experimenting with the locket's video function! Someone... smug. He's smiling about something, though his attention seems less focused on addressing the viewers than it could be at the moment.]
Quite remarkable, isn't it? Ah, I wonder if they have extras they wouldn't mind parting with? I'd love to see what sorts of enchantments are put on these...
[Then he seems to realize now isn't the time to nerd out, and addresses the locket a bit more directly.]
But that's for later --- for now, introductions are in order, I believe. I am Lord Kayneth El-Melloi, Ninth Head of the Archibald House...
[...he trails off a bit, looking a bit like he's forgotten himself again, and then shifts gears a bit.]
Of course, if there's anyone here who recognizes the significance of that, I suppose I'd like to speak to them more directly.
[NAILED IT.]
As for the rest of you... well, if we are to be allies, I wouldn't mind opening up discussion of anything that would make our victory more certain. In particular, I'd like to know about other worlds' magic, both yours and our enemies'. Admittedly, that's almost more for curiosity's sake rather than purely strategic purposes. This is a rare opportunity indeed, and I'm not one to squander it.
[His enthusiasm does fade a bit, though, as he thinks on it more.]
Though, really, I'm certain I'm not the only person here who was brought here while in the middle of something extremely time-sensitive, am I? Have they made arrangements for that sort of thing? I'm aware of legends of how this sort of thing tends to go, and I'd rather not return home to find out that a whole century's passed.

what the hell, High King...]
...no, I'm aware of the existence of musicals and such.
...You're... here for moral support, then.
[he hopes. he hopes so much.]
video;
--oh. Um. Yeah, I kind of.. I don't think I'm supposed to be here, to be honest. I can't really ... [ She flaps her arms. ] ...Do much.
video;
...well.
A lot of things would be nice, really.
[he... will leave it at that.]
Anyway, I'm certain there will be an audience with the monarchs at some point, so... I could easily ask on your behalf, you know. I'm... curious about the criteria, myself.
[ESPECIALLY NOW.]
video;
[ A nod. ]
You're really nice!

[HE'S... TOTALLY GOING TO FORGET, SORRY ABOUT THAT KELSI...]
Well, I do my best to be a gentleman, as anything else would be beneath me.
