Inside the Estate, Sidra, Glacia, Late Afternoon

There were a lot of things Karla had wanted to do as soon as they entered the estate. Look around again and see how much had changed from her memories. Find old servants and friends and see if they were as glad to see her as she was them. Drag her friends by the hand and show off the home she'd grown up in. Make an inventory of every hideous ( Read more... )

Karla indulged herself in a very brief fantasy of striding down to where he stood and clawing that smile off Hobart's face with her fingernails. She wouldn't even use her snaketooth. Just sharp nails and temper.

"Cut the sh--" She frowned and tried again. "Don't play me for a fool, Hobart. Your so called 'helping' involved breaking witches, murdering and enslaving landens, abusing Control Rings, and setting witchblood on fire to massacre an entire Blood town. If that's what you do to a Territory you love, I'd hate to see you acting against one you hated."

"I'm sad to see that your elevation to Territory Queen hasn't improved your manners any," Hobart said with a sigh. "What would your parents think of you?"

"Impossible to say," Karla said, cuttingly. "Considering you had them killed to facilitate your rise to power. Lord Morton's parents, too. Is this more of your 'help' for the Territory?"

"Is that what this is all about?" Hobart asked, looking sympathetic. Or possibly dyspepsic. He didn't have a lot of experience with the whole sympathy thing. "Are you still blaming me for that horrible, tragic accident? Is that what this is all about? You've always looked for someone to blame for that, Karla. And I think it's just grown as you've gotten older. Your...histrionic nature, your undisciplined caste and you, well, let's face it, your abnormal compatriots have all helped convince you that I'm in the middle of some grand conspiracy against you. You always were such a high-strung little girl.I wouldn't say unbalanced..."

But he would trail off there, so it was the last word the crowd heard.

"Except you just did," Dinah muttered. Probably not as under-her-breath as she meant to, but, well. "Dick."

Momoko twitched. Well, that wasn't fair, she didn't twitch so much as twitch harder. Her White Light was escaping her and she didn't care. Was it wrong she was hoping some fanatic would mistake it for a white jewel and attack her?

Too bad.
