Do you think you’re in the right place?

[ Hello, world. Have a scruffy face with a crooked nose and pinned-together smile—and glimpses of a garden wall beyond him, perhaps enough background scenery for the observant and clever to note that he's speaking from Caer Scima, but he isn't purposefully trying to hide that. ]

I don’t mean the Drabwuld generally. I’m sure many of you don’t belong here at all, and I wish you all the luck in all of the worlds finding your way home. But if you must be here, do you think your court chose you correctly? Do you believe in...

[ He waves a hand—he means their codes or perhaps their shit; it’s open for interpretation—and, out of view, the gesture attracts the attention of his cat. When Anders goes on he’s distracted, looking off to the side, trying to tempt Ser Pounce-a-lot closer. ]

Smug— [ Anders. ] —self-righteous— [ Anders look at yourself. ] —paragons of virtue need not respond.

[ OOC: I love it when people threadjack/threadhop and manage my notifs accordingly, so please don't hesitate to talk among yourselves. ]

Yo.

[It still feels weird to talk at a locket but oh well. She tries to sound as casual as possible.

Like usual, she also doesn't plan to reveal what side she's on in any way either. But asking for advice from both sides seems like it'll get her the best variety of responses.]

I guess a lot of us asked for magic, huh? It seems practical enough in a world like this. Well, anyway, I'm looking for advice from all you magic-users. Since I'm learning now, just tell me what works for you. Tips or something like that. I don't care if you think maybe it won't work for this world's magic. It's worth a shot, right? Aah but I don't need a teacher. I'll learn it myself from these books.

Even if you don't use magic, if you knew people who do, I'll hear about it. [A beat. Oh right.] It's fire magic if that matters. [She laughs softly.] Well... I guess that's fitting for me.

Mm... That's about it.

[ooc: This is open to action for any Unseelie hanging around the library!]

[Guess who has two thumbs and is getting a handle on "fairy," technology. This guy. There's some rifling, and a brief shot of his face before he manages to get the damn thing figured out. Once he has the thing zero in on what he assumes is a reasonable view of him head on based on the image he's seeing he clears his throat.]

Yeah. This is weird.

[Coming from the guy that never had a myspace and doesn't use computers for anything but paranormal research, except for the occasional porno. Something he hasn't even mastered yet. He'd still rely on skin mags and pay-per-view if he had the option.]

Okay. Probably pointless, but new recruit here and I'm as pro-rights as the next guy but when I got the memo that I'd be waging war on behalf of fairies this isn't exactly what I anticipated.

[Dean scrubs a hand over his face, pausing to collect his thoughts. Sure, it's a bad joke, but anything to break the ice and take a little tension out of the situation.]

I've exhausted all my options on getting in touch with the people back home, and any resources on a way out are all coming up goose egg.

Anyone got any bright ideas? 'Cause so far this all seems like a really bad acid trip and getting enlisted by friggin' Tinkerbell's not my idea of a good time.

If you've got some insight that goes beyond the typical gist, feel free to speak up.

[ out in the Unseelie courtyard, surrounded by inky black thorn bushes (how appropriate,) Loki sits on the ground, rustling through the plants as delicately as possible. he seems amused enough, a small bundle of the plants already gathered in a cloth in his lap. ]

Atropa belladonna. Once known to be an effective anesthetic and even as a beauty aid, but now more commonly used as a deadly poison, able to render even the most mighty of warriors powerless. A useless, hallucinating, drooling pile on the ground.

Oft considered one of the primary tools of the witch. [ he laughs a little to himself. ] How fitting.

Tell me about yourselves, my new friends. Your worlds, your myths, your folklore. Your legends and your mysteries. I will share my own, in return.

Where I come from, there are nine known, documented realms. Nine worlds. The realms of the gods, the giants, the dying, and the dead among them. I have seen most all of them myself, and I must say, they hardly compare to the remarkable land I find myself in now. Very quaint.

I am sure there are others among you who agree, no? I can't be the only one who feels so very at home here.

espouses

When my mother told me tales of magical creatures and monsters under the bed when I was a child I always thought they were just stories to teach me a lesson - you know, 'don't sleep under the bed with the dog, Marian, the monsters will get you'! I didn't think they were real, I thought she meant fleas.

[ She's lifting her shoulder, now, almost a shrug, even as she's grinning. Humour is her forte, her defence, and waking up in a place where she has to fight another war for people she barely knows, other than as a whole, as stereotypes. It's not that she minds fighting, of course, as that's what she does for a living, but she likes having a definite reason to fight. Someone was murdered, a child was kidnapped, mages were being tortured, elves enslaved - that sort of thing. She needs a little more than 'she's special'.

Because, in her mind, she isn't. ]

But here we are and here they are. We're here to help, right? ... Unless this has something to do with the looters in the Wounded Coast or that Qunari patrol, in which case... I didn't do it? Really, I promise it was an accident. Honest.

[ The little smile on her face is proof enough that it obviously wasn't an accident - but she continues, crossing her arms over her chest. Jokes and humour are all well and good, of course, but she does have a point. ]

If you've seen a dwarf without a beard, tell me. Or a scary glowing elf. Actually, if you see scary glowing anything you should definitely let me know. I'll take care of them.
