First Spell

Feb 23, 2011 22:39

[The feed opens with Merlin staring down skeptically at the book in his hands. There’s a moment’s pause, and then he glances back at the baseball diamond before turning back to the book.]

Er-- [He taps it once, making the screen shake, and then leans in a bit too closely, speaking as softly as he can.]

Hello? The man over there said I could talk to ( Read more... )

You are the great and powerful Merlin? You have got to be kidding me. You're so... scrawny.

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 03:57:48 UTC

[Wait-- wait, wait, wait. Great and powerful? A pause.]

I'm not scrawny. And I'm not the great and powerful, I'm just Merlin, Arthur's servant.

[brb, laughing hysterically]

You're little! [She sounds like she's enjoying herself.]

Okay. Okay. Do you happen to study magic?

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 04:04:48 UTC

[Another pause. He sounds slightly short of breath when he speaks.]

Magic? Of course not.

voice; hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:06:05 UTC

[More laughing. She has to take a moment to calm down enough to speak.]

Well, why not? I think you'd be pretty good at it.

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 04:08:17 UTC

[Carefully:]

And why would you think that?

voice; hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:12:53 UTC

Call it... intuition. So, how old are you right now?

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 04:15:35 UTC

Twenty-one. Are you a witch?

voice; 1/2 hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:18:25 UTC

No.

voice; 2/2 hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:18:46 UTC

I'm a sorceress.

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 04:23:20 UTC

How do you know of me?

voice; hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:24:52 UTC

...promise not to freak out?

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 04:26:24 UTC

All right.

voice; hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:33:00 UTC

If you're the right guy, then you're one of the greatest wizards my world has ever known. I studied you in prep school. You laid down the very foundation for modern magic. So you cannot sit here and tell me you've never performed a single spell.

voice; alwaysforhim February 24 2011, 04:38:22 UTC

[Silence stretches out for a few minutes. Finally, nearly whispered:]

He accepts magic, then.

voice; private hexyoutotuesday February 24 2011, 04:46:24 UTC

[After long consideration, she switches the feed to private.]

Okay, let's start over. Right now, no one else can hear us. It's just you and me. You're like one of my mentors, so you can trust me.

Now tell me. Why are you so hesitant talking about the craft?
