the second vision

Mar 08, 2009 13:35

[After some...troubling experiences on the Network this morning, Morgana has decided that the safest thing for her to do today is to hide in her room until midnight passes, and avoid the Network at all costs. Action spam for those who live with her/anyone who wants to stop by!]

a playah's playah, courtly love, action, baby's first curse

[Knock, knock, knocking on her door.]

Morgana?

[That voice. So Mordred is still older. She had read that sometimes curses lasted more than one day, but... Morgana cringes. She can't face him right now, not cursed like this. He's still just a little boy, although now he has the appearance and memories of a man. It's just wrong.

She keeps silent, hoping that he will just leave but knowing that he won't. They have a bond.]

[Yeah, sorry, Morgana, you're not going to get what you want today. Mordred can tell that something's the matter, and the fact that she isn't answering the door when he knows she's in there doesn't help at all.

So he crosses his arms and leans against the wall beside the door, prepared to wait as long as he has to.]

Morgana, I'm not going anywhere.

[She can feel his determination. Were it Arthur, Merlin, or even Gwen, Morgana would have remained silent. Her will is more than a match for theirs. But Mordred...well, Mordred was special. There was no other way she could explain it.

Maybe if she just let him know she was cursed, he would leave her alone.]

What's a handsome swain like you doing in a dungeon like this?

[At first, he isn't quite sure he heard her correctly. Did she really just say what he thought she said?

Eyebrows raised, he chuckles a little at both the irony and the choice of phrase.]

I'd hardly call our living space a dungeon. But I'm flattered otherwise.

[Morgana's cheeks burn. Truly the deities are cruel to afflict her like this. She clamps her mouth shut and hopes that he'll leave now that he knows why she's hiding.]

[Mordred can't help it- he laughs outright. Perhaps she'd been cursed? It would make sense- curses seemed to be spreading like plague recently. He was cursed himself, apparently.]

Morgana, come out. You can't stay in there all day.

Lights! Camera! (crai then could you at least get ugly?) sleepyseer March 9 2009, 22:15:38 UTC

[He certainly grows up to be bossy. He almost reminds her of Arthur. She can stay in her room all day if she pleases, and she does please.

Oh great. Now she's THINKING pick up lines.

Morgana isn't entirely certain how their bond works, but she wills him to just leave her alone and hopes that that will work.]

[As if she had spoken out loud, he knows his presence isn't exactly appreciated at the moment. He can feel it. But that doesn't mean he is bound to obey her.

Now might be a good time to test something. To determine how much she knows, or how much she is willing to accept. She heard him speak to her once, when he was delirious with fever as a child. He wonders what she would do if he spoke to her again in such a way.]

Do you really desire me to leave?

Lights! Camera! (meanie poo!) sleepyseer March 9 2009, 22:39:46 UTC

[Morgana freezes as Mordred's voice invaded her mind. This has happened before...in Camelot. He had spoken to her then, spoken without needing to say the words out loud. She had written it off as a figment of her imagination.]

I'm fighting the urge to make you the happiest man on earth tonight.

Lights! Camera! (yeah basically~) eyesoncamlann March 9 2009, 22:58:46 UTC

[Mordred closes his eyes. She didn't even try to play along, to answer him in kind. It wounds him more than he expected. Of all people, Morgana should have-

But it doesn't matter.]

Fighting the urge to speak, you mean. I understand.

Re: Lights! Camera! (do my tears get you high?) sleepyseer March 10 2009, 00:04:56 UTC

[She's disappointed him. She doesn't know how she knows it; she just does. It gives her a tight, painful feeling in her chest. She's never been able to let him down, not since they first met.

She tries to convey an apology, but even her thoughts have become cursed.]

If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd put U and I together.
