[Elena doesn't know what she's doing, but her feet seem to be moving of their own accord.

This is her problem, and she can't help but feel as if she's the root cause for it all. Too many people's happiness, people that she loves, is at stake. She needs to fix this, however she can, and there are only a couple of ways to do it.

But first, she has questions. And she might only be able to get them from one person unless the tries scouring the minds of the other knights of the order.

And she's not sure she's ready to go that far. Or maybe, she just doesn't want to hear. What they say out loud is bad enough, sometimes.

So pretty soon, she's outside the door to Wynn's office, knocking lightly on the door. Wynn has always been an intimidating presence for her, and today is certainly going to be no exception.

[Yep, that's the reaction she was expecting.

It doesn't change her mind, though. You don't know what this girl has done already, even if she doesn't remember.

You walked into this castle, kidnapped and impersonated two people for weeks. What's the difference, exactly?]


Court jester might suit you. You'd have to get used to the sound of the bells, though.

[Do you have a better option? You stay, and you die. You do this and we survive? I bet they'll even pardon you.]

[ he seems to consider that for a moment.

So what's your plan?

for escape, clearly. ]


Motley's not really my color.

[I'm not risking this if you're just going to bail on me.

She is sense motive'ing the fuck out of him for obvious reasons. She got a 26.

I show up as guard relief. I need to know if you've seen the keys to your cell.]


I'm sure you could find a way to make it your color.

[....#doppelganger humor.]

[ he seems 100% on the level, actually.

The guards keep a set. They trade it off on shifts. Wynn has the other one, far as I can tell. ]


Clever. Maybe you should be the one doing the stand up routine.

[That's what she was looking for. It seems...too easy.

And they trade off at the same times every day?]


I'll pass. I think in history, jesters tended to lose their heads when they weren't funny enough.

[ They do. Lucky for you, they left me my watch.

and he'll... rattle off the times idk ]


All the more reason I shouldn't keep my mouth shut.

That depends on what comes out of it.

[Personality quirks I should be aware of?

Hey, he's around them 24/7. He's probably heard a thing or two.]

Flippancy is all I have. Spare an old man that much.

[ /IDK INSERT... descriptions... i am lazy and keep putting off this tag. ]

[LMAO fine i'll just...do my own research gosh. /reads Edain threads ;)]

You never did tell me how old you were.

[Is she going to be creeped out? TIME TO FIND OUT.

It'll happen soon. I assume I don't have to tell you to be ready.

Not that he has...anything better to do.]

Might be because I stopped counting.

[ I'm always ready. ]

[Wow what even.]

It would be nice to know what kind of lifespan I'm going to have.

[It hasn't exactly shown up in any of the research she's done.

Please don't make me regret this.]

A long one. But unlike most long lived species, we can cram a number of actual lifetimes in to keep things interesting.

[ That would be a bit ungrateful, now wouldn't it? ]

[personal profile] notaroundme 2014-06-05 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure interesting is the word I would use.

[She can't...really imagine losing count of her own age. Though it really sinks in the fact that he wasn't kidding when he called her young way back when.

Always with the questions. A simple 'I won't' would have sufficed.

And...she's just going to keep doing the small talk/sarcasm/annoyed thing until she can snag replacement guard/Edain's face for later use. Unless she's already seen in, in which case she'll skedaddle.]

[So timing very perfect much convenient.

No problem. I was just leaving.

[ he actually got like an 18??? which seems pretty good. nice try doppelchan. ] Light's out for the human garbage. [ and once she heads past him, he'll flick off the lights in the cell. ]
