first spell woven ۞ video

[wearsblack]

[His face appears on the feed, slightly off-center and highlighting an impressive scowl marring an otherwise delicately built face framed by curtains of long black hair. Mostly, this is because the person handling it isn’t quite sure what to do with this device.]

Grotty thing…

[It shifts again, this time centering on the young man that face belongs to. It's easier to see now that he's wearing black armor over a high-collared black tunic and a silver circlet on his brow. He eyes the tablet speculatively]

Listen to me, whoever you are. I am prince of the crown of Calavan and I will not be your pawn or anyone else’s.

They couldn't at least bloody ask before they took us away from our own worlds? Maybe you'd even get volunteers.

[It was frustrating, because he understood the nature of the threat. He'd probed the greeter and found that her story was true. Or at least, believed that it was. It didn't make him any less suspicious, considering the last people he encountered with this sort of device had sabotaged Calavere's towers and left dozen dead. It was luck that his father wasn't more severely injured.

Additionally, he knew he might even be better off here, out of reach of both the Witches and the Warriors of Vathris.

But that didn't make him any happier about it, either.]

well, could be a while, from the sound of things
maybe you should hang around, learn about popcorn

[wearsblack]

[A sigh]

If I must.

[Nevermind that he's actually genuinely curious now.

A pause and he taps the screen where her words are]

Why don't you speak to me with your voice?

[slingshots]

that'd ruin the air of mystery

He can see her name on the display right? What does it say?

[wearsblack]

[A tiny smirk at that]

Do you play this game with everyone?

yes! it will read as "Robin"

[slingshots]

mostly, sure
having fun yet?

ty <3

[wearsblack]

I might be mildly entertained. I do enjoy a mystery.

[slingshots]

gee glad to hear it/glad to be of service/all that
i was serious about the popcorn, tho

[wearsblack]

If there is any to be found, we will see...

[slingshots]

of course there is, i got some now

[wearsblack]

...are you offering to share?

[slingshots]

could be. see anything worth watching lately?

[wearsblack]

I only just arrived, but perhaps we could find something amusing.

[slingshots]

big city, sounds likely

Q: how are you w/ rooftops?

[wearsblack]

I don't make it a habit to be on them. Why?

[slingshots]

best views are on rooftops
unless i find a good movie but the odds on that one are low & sinking

[wearsblack]

You can tell me what that is when you find one. I would be willing to start with the rooftops. As long as you don't expect me to be able to fly...Robin. [Smirking at the pun]

[slingshots]

what, you don't? figure i better rework my plans...

[wearsblack]

You're the one with the popcorn.

[ :| :| :|]

[slingshots]

maybe i find a beginner rooftop and call it good

[wearsblack]

Very well. Where?

[slingshots]

depends. where are you now?

[wearsblack]

[He squints off-camera]

Outside of this building where my quarters are supposed to be.

[slingshots]

be there in 10

[wearsblack]

[That's enough time to find his room and get his armor off right?

Ok, maybe not.]

Make it twenty.

[And then he cuts off the feed and goes to do just that]

[slingshots]

[ twenty it is. which means that she'll actually be there in five minutes, because the Bat Bible says if you're not early, you're late. so she'll settled on a two story building with the entrance of the Housing in easy sight, perched in a little huddle against the rain at the edge of the roof, watching the comers and goers. ]
