-- telling you, it's been following me all the way here!

[ The screen is dark at first, with just the audio transmitting- and it flickers on- and shows the shoulders of an officer who should be very familiar to everyone. But that's not her voice ( Read more... )

[Merlin, this is stupid, but he has to gloat a little. No one can blame him for that!]

Who the hell would have cursed you?

[voice] kingofrooks May 14 2011, 07:36:40 UTC

I don't know! [ Pause. ] Hey, can you curse people?

[voice] atrumcanis May 14 2011, 08:08:07 UTC

Not the sort of curses you're thinking about, mate, I'm not some witch in a chicken-legs house.

[voice] kingofrooks May 14 2011, 08:16:05 UTC

A witch in a what house?

[voice] atrumcanis May 14 2011, 12:20:28 UTC

Chicken-legs. [A pause.] It's-- it's a Muggle story. You've never heard it?

[voice] kingofrooks May 14 2011, 12:48:39 UTC

... There are lots of stories of witches in houses but. Not a chicken-legs house.

[ Pauuse. ]

What's a Muggle?

[voice] atrumcanis May 16 2011, 00:40:34 UTC

You are, actually, so how the hell do I know this story when you don't, eh? The lot of you are Muggles--anyone who isn't a wizard--anyone who has stupid ideas about witches in chicken-leg houses.

[voice] kingofrooks May 16 2011, 01:50:04 UTC

... Are you talking about the Wizard of Oz? You know, Dorothy, red heels, flying house?

[voice] atrumcanis May 16 2011, 13:40:27 UTC

The wizard of where? It's not as if there's just a single wizard in places, you know, there's usually a handful.

[voice] kingofrooks May 16 2011, 15:36:39 UTC

Oz. [ Pause. ] You know, Emerald City and everything?

If that's not the one you know, that I really have no idea what 'Muggle' story you're talking about.

[voice] atrumcanis May 16 2011, 19:40:31 UTC

Yes, of course you haven't, you're a prat. [A SIGH, with slightly exaggerated exasperation.] It's nothing to do with any ozes or emeralds or any of that sort of thing. She's a witch, and her house has these chicken legs, and the house carries her about so she can--I dunno, so she can put curses on things. It's-- I dunno, some eastern country. Russia, perhaps.

Anyway, the point is, I have better things to do than curse you.

[voice] kingofrooks May 17 2011, 05:14:43 UTC

[ Pause. And then he has an epiphany! ]

Oh! Oh, the Baba Yaga! [ Pause. ] The last I've heard of a story like that was in Russia, along with the demons that come at Christmas. [ Shrugs. ]

And I don't believe you.

[voice] atrumcanis May 17 2011, 14:07:50 UTC

We could likely fill an ocean with the things that you believe that are wrong, so I suppose that your disbelief doesn't count for much more.

What were you doing in Russia?

[voice] kingofrooks May 17 2011, 14:18:32 UTC

[ He looks awkward for a moment. ]

Conference. [ Pause. ] About nuclear energy. Nothing that's important here.

And you don't know that.

[voice] atrumcanis May 17 2011, 15:18:54 UTC

[....nu-clear. Right. Muggle-things.]

It might be important, you don't know that any more than I know about your wrong beliefs! Although I'm a little more certain of mine, given all the wrong things people believe about magic and wizards and all. I mean, you were just going on about emeralds and things, weren't you.

[voice] kingofrooks May 17 2011, 15:34:41 UTC

... You know, it's really strange, how you know the Baba Yaga but not the Wizard of Oz. You're really missing out, here.

Besides, you never know. There's a lot of worlds here. The story I read might be real in another world.
