quicktoanger | First Casefile: New Feather [Action/Written]

[Action]

Well, sure, I was just sitting on the roof. I mean, hey, it was a bit chilly, but I'm used to that. And I wasn't sure where I was, but hell, that's hardly any change.

The fact that I couldn't figure out how to get down was entirely irrelevant. I assure you. So there I sat, on the roof, scribbling in my journal.

The wings, it seems, didn't come off. Damn near fell off the roof figuring that out. They still throbbed.

The journal was an interesting thing, actually. It had my name on it. Apparently it updated to represent the journals other people used? I'd tried to look at it through the Sight. Luckily, the freezing cold was doing wonders staving off that headache.

I looked over the side again. Considered trying to climb. But, well, it was a rather tall building, and there weren't many handholds within reach. No. No, better to find some other method. So I'll just keep writing in that journal.

Hey. Don't know if there's some sort of etiquette to this... journal thing, or whatever it's called, but I have a question.

Where the hell am I, why do I have wings, and how did I get on top of this building without any clothing?

I don't think I was that drunk last night...

[It is some time before Adele is able to reply to this entry, as she spends the bulk of the afternoon with her hands full of yards of blond hair. But once she's home, she jots down a note.]

Since there are children in the Village, I would suggest you do not post nude images of yourself, or recordings of anything lewd or obscene. Other than that it is simply a matter of not doing anything you would not wish done to you.

Kids are watching, don't be an ass, no sexting. Got it.

Wow. This is probably the closest I'll ever come to the internet. Sad thought.

...Sexting? I do not know this word. [Though it sounded like something Remy would do. Often. Perhaps something he might have mentioned around her? Or even Irving.]

[Well. Harry Dresden new a hip cultural slang that somebody else didn't. May wonders never cease.

... Well, actually, it happened to me all the time, it's just that usually the ones who didn't were hidebound octacentarian wizards and prehistoric vampires and minor elder gods and the like.]

It's kind of a dumb thing. People trade pictures of themselves and dirty messages on their cell phones.

Ah. I know someone...well. Two someones that engage in that practice, though I never knew what it was called. Thank you for enlightening me. [Dumb? Yes. The reminder ached a bit though. Nothing to be changed, such was life, etc.]

Sorry if that came off offensive. I didn't mean to insult your friends or anything.

I'm not exactly noted for my way with words.

Oh no, it is something of a foolish practice, and I am not offended. Amused, a little, but not offended. It seems like an American word, though the practice is probably universal.

It is an American word. I'm an American.

And now you are a Lucetian, at least as much as the rest of us have become.

People keep going on about Luceti, but what is it? Is it some sort of alien planet, or a parallel reality, or a demesne of the Nevernever? A weird universe that only exists in my mind? What?

I have been led to believe it is the enclosure, the village that we live in and the area inside the barrier. As for the world, the reality, I do not know.

These Malnosso people sure aren't big believers in sharing information, are they?

Big Brother is Watching. That does not mean Big Brother likes to talk, yes?

Yeah, well tell Big Brother that Little Sister here says to kiss his ass. I'm good at finding things out.

You may have done so indirectly yourself, most anything discussed, written, or recorded in these is available for the Malnosso to see.

Oh. Well done, Harry.

Good. Saves me the trouble.

Try not to bring anything down on those that associate with you. I would rather not have more patients than necessary.

Oh, don't worry, I'm very good at making sure people who get pissed at me only mess with me.

And if all else fails, there's always shields.

I may regret asking but...

What is it you mean by shields? Literal, medieval shields, magical shields, Force shields...?

Oh. That. Uh...

Okay. This is going to sound a little bit psycho, but I swear it's true.

I'm kind of a wizard.

My best friend is a Jedi, and I live with a magician. Your being a wizard isn't the strangest thing I have heard here.

Well, that makes it easier to believe, then.

Yeah. Shield spells. And if I can find my bracelet, it makes my shield spells more effective.

Even with the power cap? There is something in the barrier here that muffles most people with supernatural abilities. In the aforementioned Jedi, it severed his connection to the Force for a month. I would take the time to see how much your abilities have been altered before picking fights.

I do not pick fights!

... Okay, maybe a little.

Also, what power cap?

And I do not believe you.

Are there any spells you know that are small, and com easily?
