012 ± [voice/locked from the witch] good news for people who love bad news

Apr 12, 2010 10:06

[Later on the same day that all of this happened, the following broadcast went out from Shane Hayes' tablet.]

Hello, this is Glitch. [Shakey sigh here.] Our captors have decided to...it's...DG isn't DG anymore, they've turned her into the Sorceress from my world. S-so that's why there's a big creepy tower where my home used to be and and those ( Read more... )

"Oh, Glitch - did she hurt you? I got your first broadcast." This is Tara's fears confirmed; she knew something was amiss, but not what.

Glitch clicked over to visual - he knew it was more reassuring to see that folks were all right rather than just hear it - and smiled faintly. His location was totally nondescript, there was just a white wall behind him (all the better for fooling possible traitors, or that was the idea).

"No. I mean, she was going to kill me but DG stopped her." The smile morphed into something proud and adoring. "Which means she's fighting it. Hopefully that'll keep the Witch from doing anything too horrible."

"Is there anything we can do, to help her?" Possession is a nasty thing - Tara's seen it before, and it's always frightening.

He shrugged sadly. "It it's a glitch, so we just have to wait it out." A sigh of frustrated annoyance. "We could try getting through to DG, but I don't know if that'll help her or just tick the Witch off more."

Is there anything that I can do for you, Master Langwe? [ concerned countess is concerned ]

[ voice | locked ] justaddmarbles April 12 2010, 18:00:19 UTC

[The countess' concern is appreciated.] Thank you, lady. I may need to- to avail myself of the hospitality of your home, if that's all right. My present location is somewhat obvious.

[Or it would be if the Witch got access to DG's memories of who Glitch's absolute closest friends were.]

You are more than welcome to. Professor Snape is, unfortunately, no longer with us- [ gone from Taxon, not dead ] -but his work remains, so I believe Gatas to be one of the safest places in the city as it stands.

[Snape gone as well? Cripes, he's been out of the loop.]

That sounds fantastic, I'll probably be along this evening. Thank you again, Countess.

[...oh Angel, there is an even more hilariously ironic parallel here (given a couple days' delay) but there are things a gentleman does not discuss.]

Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

[ voice ] trainedprat April 14 2010, 21:37:14 UTC

Monkey bats.

[ voice ] justaddmarbles April 14 2010, 21:54:18 UTC

Monkeys. With big ol' bat wings. They swoop.

[ voice ] trainedprat April 14 2010, 22:09:25 UTC

I see. [ In a tone that says he wishes he didn't. ]

How dangerous are these creatures? Can they be killed by conventional means?

[ voice ] justaddmarbles April 14 2010, 23:07:47 UTC

Well, they can bite, and scratch, and depending on how big you are they can pick you up and...carry you. Or drop you. [Uncertain theory or voice of experience? You decide.] But yeah, they can be killed. Preferably with projectiles.
