[A soft click as it's set on the surface of the table. (This is what starts the feed) A soft curl of auburn hair swaying past. Soft breath cut short by the press of teeth to lip and a soft hum to seal it ( Read more... )

A-Are you all right?

[video] isherarmor September 25 2011, 16:13:36 UTC

[The first answer is out of habit, the second out of fear. The third is closer to the truth.]

Yes.

No.

I don't ...know. [How would she even begin to tell?] It's warmer in here than it was outside. [That's something.] Are you a spirit, too?

[video] yetsleeping September 25 2011, 16:15:59 UTC

I'm not a spirit. My name is Priscilla.

What's yours?

[video] isherarmor September 25 2011, 16:37:33 UTC

[By now she's staring down into the screen, but she hasn't touched it.]

If you aren't a spirit, who are you, Priscilla?

[Unsure again, but she's already spoken once and doesn't want to contradict herself. Or take the risk.]

Alayne. My name is Alayne.

[She doesn't mean to stare at your eyes, and once she realizes that's what she's doing, she looks away. Only to softly whimper at something offscreen. What is her missing shoe doing here?]

Is this some sort of test? I...

...I'll be good, I promise.

[video] yetsleeping September 25 2011, 19:46:47 UTC

I'm just... a person? Well, it's a long story... who I am. But I'm not a spirit, and this isn't a test. It's Anatole.

[video] isherarmor September 25 2011, 21:40:34 UTC

Anatole.

Am I still in Westeros?

[And what new scheme is this, if she isn't half-dead or dreaming?]

Did you make the armored box? Is it a mummer's trick? Or ...magic?

[video] yetsleeping September 25 2011, 21:44:42 UTC

I didn't make it! But all of us have one. All of us who came here from... somewhere else. Anywhere else.

The truth is, I don't know very much about magic, but... I do know that is what brought you here.

...I also don't know what a mummer is!

[video] 1/2 isherarmor September 26 2011, 00:14:17 UTC

Us? [Yup. That's what she said, Sansa. You are included in the us, regardless of how much you don't want to be.] You aren't from this place, this Anatole?

[Oh. No.]

What does this magic want with us? With me? I don't want to be---

[Hold on. Let's think about this a moment. If she's no longer in Westeros, then---]

---I don't believe in magic.

[That is kind of a lie. Just a little.]

[video] 2/2 isherarmor September 26 2011, 00:16:28 UTC

[How could you not know?]

It's just another word for a rhymer.

[video] yetsleeping September 26 2011, 00:58:17 UTC

I didn't really believe in it either. But here we are. I've never even heard of Westeros, and this city didn't exist where I came from.

...I kind of like that word, though.

[video] isherarmor September 26 2011, 19:02:41 UTC

[Here we are(wherearewe?).]

Mummer or rhymer?

[video] yetsleeping September 26 2011, 19:24:56 UTC

Mummer! Well, I don't talk very much about rhymers usually.

[video] isherarmor September 27 2011, 02:23:14 UTC

What is it like where you come from? What is its name?

[video] yetsleeping September 27 2011, 02:57:36 UTC

I came from Musha. It's a southern land, warm and beautiful. ...but I spent most of my life in the North, which is always locked in ice and snow.

What about you?

[video] isherarmor September 28 2011, 02:38:54 UTC

I was born in the North. Our south is not without its beauty, but I missed Winterfell more than I'd ever thought I would.

[This is helping a little.]

[video] yetsleeping September 28 2011, 02:41:52 UTC

Really? What is the north like, there?
