[RL with corinthian]

The castle was always full of people, more now that they were celebrating Jack’s b-day party, and Elphaba find herself hiding on the library. She never liked parties, and she wanted to celebrate it with Jack in private but Nancy had other plans. That woman was like a force of nature, and no one should be able to pout like that. Nancy remembers her ( Read more... )

Elsewhere in the palace, there was another that held a similar dislike of the sheer number of people swarming the grounds. The nightmare careful weaved his way through the crowd, attempting to get by quickly and, with any luck, completely unnoticed. Certain people didn't need to know he was actually here, after all.

That lady--Nancy? That was her name, right?--said she would meet him in the library. He was fast forming a severe irritation for such places, but regardless, he found himself tracking the room down and slipping inside without a word. It was better than hanging around people he didn't know (and who probably wanted his head), at any rate.

And it was quiet.

Elphaba was too busy with an history book to pay attention to the newcomer. She was sitting next to the window, book on her lap, her long black hair unbraided for once, falling over her shoulder.

Unfortunately, with a cursory look around the room, the Corinthian did notice her.

"Goddammit," he hissed quietly, immediately turning to go back the other way. Of all the people....

It was a really unusual thing to hear in andalasia. People sang, people talked, but no one of them ever cursed. Not that she know. Elphaba looked up from her book into the sound's direction. Goddammit indeed.

"What are you doing here?" She said, closing the book and standing up.

Would answering be breaking that whole "Don't talk to me anymore" request?

"Leaving." It was a short, curt reply, and he didn't even turn to look at her as he continued to the door.

"Good." She turned her back at him too, leaving the book on the table next to the window and crossing her arms.

Elphaba saw two blue birds flying away, giggling and murmuring something about Nancy and the library's door. She frowed.

He wanted to say something to that last comment, but was thankfully able to refrain. He tried to ignore the birds--if there was one thing he despised, it was those damn rats with wings--but....wait. He paused, one hand on a door handle. What about Nancy?

"I'm going to kill her." Elphaba hissed, looking over her shoulder to the door's direction, frowning at it like it was it's fault. "I'm sure it's locked. Magically." She frowned more, she had left the Grimmerie on the north pole.

....what. That made the nightmare immediately turn his attention back to the door, please let him have heard her wrong--

Locked. Fuckdammit. "Fan-fucking-tastic," he muttered, kicking bitterly at the door. Oh, he was going to hurt that woman the next time he saw her.

"Don't even think about it." Elphaba murmured dangerous, turning back to face him. If someone was going to hurt Nancy, that will be her. "You did enough."

"You remember when you told me not to talk to you anymore?" He turned to the witch, frustration clear on his face despite the sunglasses. "I liked that, you shouldn't ruin a good thing."

"I told you not to talk to me." She looked away from him , sitting again. "I never said that I couldn't talk to you."

"Well don't," he snapped, walking to the other side of the room. He'd find a book and a corner and just wait the torture out. "You've already said your piece, I don't need to hear it again."

Elphaba didn't wasted her time with a reply, she just snorted and turned his face to the window. Nancy was so dead. Not even Glinda ever did something like that to her.

The witch crossed her arms over her chest, the sleeve of the right fell and the necklace glinted on the light.

She didn't noticed.

The Corinthian was more than a little relieved at her silence; he had more than enough pointless arguments lately. He didn't even waste time browsing the books, merely grabbing the first one he passed as he made his way to another seat at the far side of the room. He only glanced up again once he had settled down and cracked the book open, though the necklace immediately caught his eye.

"You kept it." His voice was quite, and perhaps even a little surprised. But it was quickly covered with a small grunt, and when he continued it was louder and disinterested. "You haven't burned that stupid thing yet?"

"Why should I?" She replied, cold. What was with the whole 'let's not talk to each other' thing now? "It's mine, I can do whatever I want with him." Even if she wasn't sure why she keep it. Probably because made her remember how stupid she was. Maybe because the memory wasn't that bad in some way.
