Characters: The Summoner and YOU
Setting: Around!
Format: Action to start, but I’ll follow
Summary: Somebody's po’d about suddenly being not at home!
Warnings: None at the moment

[He’ll only stay in this room as long as he’s forced here, he resolves. Being caught so completely, staring up at an unfamiliar ceiling, is neither pleasant nor comforting. In fact, if he allowed himself these thoughts anyway, it rather terrifies him. Nothing like being dropped into an unfamiliar and likely dangerous situation with a body that won’t move. His mind reels as he waits: Gotta be a highblood plot, right? But how would they have found him… hmm. And what about his cavalreapers? Everything feels off-kilter and strange, and the very moment he can, he slips across the communal respiteblock floor, wings half opened, and tries the door]

[AND LATER he’s moving carefully through each floor, suspicious and irritated. His head is held at an odd angle as he explores, lowered slightly so he’s forced to peer up through his brows to see, but his horns carve a sharp, dangerous arc through the air, settled at just about goring level. It’s not really the best threat, but he’s made them work for him in the past when he’s been desperate. And hey, if this isn’t a desperate situation here, without his soldiers or his beasts or his weapons, then he doesn’t know what is! So yeah... watch out, guys… This troll fit to snap at the first thing that looks at him wrong…]

[LSDLFKJLJ oh gosh, is it Tavros? He will just... head in hands forever if it's Tavros...]

[But! He looks... sort of confused by this statement. Aren't there... always dangerous people around...? Is this not a thing she's used to? Hmm...]

Dangerous how...?

[FORTUNATELY FOR TAVROS NO. The kid finally got lucky for once--]

[She's used to dangerous people, but she always feels it necessary to warn people anyway.]

Well--.... [She hesitates, mouth settling into what was decidedly a frown, and after a moment she glances both ways down the hallway, then back at him. Regarding him quietly for a second, she wonders briefly if he has any reason to like the Condesce. ...Most of the trolls she'd met really didn't seem to, but... he deserves to know, even if he's okay with it. Surely even the people who liked her would at least recognize she was dangerous, if what she'd been told was true.] Some of them are manipulative, and some are just violent. And... you should probably know, Her Imperial Condescension is here.

[........WHAT]

Ah... [...nope nope nope]

[Sorry] What. What is she doing here. [There is... quite a lot of anger in his voice. He really really doesn't like the Condesce! AT ALL. In fact the very idea of being in the same tower as her sort of... disgusts him!!!]

[She blinks at him, then jumps a bit at that 'what'. He definitely sounds displeased, and really, she wishes she had a better answer for him then,] ...The same thing everyone else is, I guess - being trapped. I... haven't heard anything about her being any more control of the tower than anyone else. [Not that it couldn't be true.]

[Goodness Namine you have nothing but bad news it seems!!! But his... disgust is at least being directed kind of ineffectually at the air as he check up and down the hallway again... As if the Condesce might show up right now just to prove she's here]

I think she could probably hide it if she was in charge and didn't want anyone to know. [Hmm... even if it seems unlikely that she'd hang out around aliens and lowbloods for any longer then she'd have to...]

Maybe. I don't know. [Her frown is very decidedly present and doesn't look like it's going away just yet.] But... she has caused some trouble already, at least for some of the trolls. I-- haven't met her. [Her frown deepens.] ...And I'm glad I haven't.

Hmm... Good. [Watches her... Man, this is not really a challenge he predicted or really wanted? Guh, Condesce, good job making things miserable for everyone...]

I hope you never have to...

[She nods.] From what I've heard, she's--... not very nice. [Understatement of the year.]

[Ah... haha... He could... rant at her for quite some time about how many people she's fucked over... including him... But he won't! Because she probably wouldn't get it... being an alien... )8]

No. She's not. You should uh... not talk to her. Or spend any time around her at all. If that's possible for you.

[She would... probably get the gist. She doesn't have much life experience, but she's a pretty smart cookie ~~most of the time~~.]

Well, I've... managed so far, so I guess that's a good sign. [About her continued NOT seeing the Condesce, that is.] ...What about you? What will you do?

[Yes, someday he will stop underestimating aliens just cause they're aliens, but they are a terribly new thing to him at this point. What a jerk...]

[His answer is... immediate and firm. He's really... not kidding at all]

I'll kill her.

[...wait, shit, that won't work here, will it... She'll just come back. Frowns, thoughtful... after the fact??? lkjsdf]

Uh... actually, I guess I'm not sure? I didn't think I'd get to her so soon...

[Naminé sucks in a breath at his answer. It's an awful thing to hear, even if she knows there are reasons for it and, in a place like this, it barely even means anything, at least compared to what it would mean in any other situation. She doesn't interrupt his thoughts, but she does look... something akin to sad. Once she realizes how she must look, though, she does her best to shrug it off and keep her expression more neutral when she says,]

'So soon'?

[...he is definitely confused by her expression, even more so when she tries to get rid of it. He certainly hopes that was not the beginnings of pale interest, even if that's the only context he can up with for sadness at the prospect of murder... especially one as justified as this one. Gives her a long, curious look before answering: ]

Uh... yeah. That's the goal, uh... Was the goal, I mean. We were trying to get to her, to kill her, or... disable her power somehow. [...context, Summoner. Give her context!!] 'We' being the revolution... that I was taken away from. [Mild annoyance at that last thought...]

[She's never happy to hear about anyone hurting anyone else, justified or otherwise. She just doesn't have it in her to wish people harm, although she recognizes that sometimes it's necessary to keep them from doing bad things to everyone else. ~~She's so lucky she's not a troll because she'd never be able to find a kismesis who wasn't completely psychotic and made a habit of killing her friends.~~]

A revolution...? [Yeah, she can imagine why he'd be annoyed.] That sounds... [Scary, and dangerous, and... she's not exactly sure how to phrase it, other than,] hard. I'm sorry. But-- I think I can see why you'd want to try. How was that... um, going?

Excellent...! I could not have uh, hoped for any better, actually. They were not ready for us, I don't think.

[Baww he sounds... really happy talking about it. Can you tell this was his life before suddenly being here? It was totally his life, the culmination of every dream he had growing up );]

[Yes, she can tell. ~~Murdering a tyrant is kind of a sad dream to have, but she won't judge.~~ She manages a smile, mostly at his enthusiasm.]

Oh. Good...! That must have been... nice? [Is that even the right word to describe something like that djfbgkjgdfgdf]

[lkjsdf baww a tyrant who's enslaved and murdered hundreds of millions of his people )8 That's totally an awesome dream and not sad at all hdu Namine. And actually, the Summoner is a terrible troll at heart and it's not the murdering so much as the Justice For All aspect that makes it worth it for him... Not that... any of that would be obvious without him saying it, woops. He is just... very happy about this topic for now pff]

It was. A nice surprise, yes. I suspect they will become wise to us soon, though, and that's when it will get much harder... [...unless] Unless I can disable her here...

[Yes, but see if she WASN'T a tyrant who enslaved and murdered hundreds of millions of people then he wouldn't have to worry about/dream of murdering her and everyone would be fine. :c Which is why it's kind of sad.]

You're right, that might make a difference. But... even if you can stop her here, there's still the problem of how you'll get home.

[Yes )8 Jeez, Doc Scratch / Lord English / Handmaid, you guys suck]

I'll find a way. [Sounds... absolutely certain!!]

[Seriously. :/]

[Absolutely certain? She's just going to blink at him for that.]

[TOTALLY CERTAIN. He is not even fazed by her stare]

[Welp, if he's sure.] Alright, then. Good luck.

Of course...! [Grins. Grins forever]

When I uh... find my way out, I will make sure to tell you how I did it.

[She smiles back, and it's a slightly wide one.] Okay. Thank you...! And if I happen to find a way out, I'll tell you, too.
