2nd Spell ~ [Voice | Filtered from Arthur Pendragon]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[So. Arthur's appearance means that he needs to throw this together in a bit of a rush, while going to get the bloody prat. Thus, it's better to make it voice because then at least no one will notice his nervous fumbling.]

I really hope I'm doing this right.

Okay, uhm. The... blond man who just appeared naming what he's got on him, and muttering about a lake and heading west, he's, uhm... I'm Merlin, and he's Arthur Pendragon, and I think some of you at least know who that is. Who.. we are. He's from my world, but the thing here is...

I'm sure most everyone here now knows of my... abilities, but Arthur doesn't because, uh.. it's banned, back home, and he's the Prince, so that would be troublesome.

I don't know if this is quick enough - I should have thought of it before - but just. Please try not to let things slip about it, to him?

[A pause, and his voice goes just slightly quieter, as if he's muttering to himself more, now, than talking to the device.]

I... might want to consider telling him, huh? It's not like it's going to get me executed here.

[And then he raises his voice again.]

But in that case, I'd rather be the one to do that, so... yeah. Don't let him know.

((OOC: Action too if anyone would like to catch him on the streets while he's doing this, but he'll be in a bit of a hurry and very distracted so that thread wouldn't last long. And any other responses will come later, in some hours-ish I guess?))

The King took power when there was chaos because of magic, I was told, so I guess that was his way of taking control. But it's created this great hatred and fear of magic, becaue it's seen as a force of evil and nothing else.

It's gone too far, at this point.

[boutant]

I wish I could say that sort of thinking doesn't exist where I'm from, but it's still there. It's just not about magic.

And Arthur... just blindly believes it's bad?

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I... would say it's a little more complicated than that. Probably. It goes a little back and forth, just what he believes.

[boutant]

Well, hopefully he won't be unreasonable about it.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Yeah, hopefully.

[boutant]

[ A pause. ]

If you'd like an impartial mediator...

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I think I'll be fine, but thanks for the offer.

[boutant]

No problem. Let me know if you change your mind, or if you need anything else.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I will, thank you.

[boutant]

Good luck.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I'll probably need it...

[boutant]

We're all hoping it'll go well, if that helps.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I dunno. But I appreciate it.

[boutant]

Moral support. [ A bit of a smile. ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Yeah...

[boutant]

And if all else fails, I could punch him in the nose.

[ Apparently she's decided you're one of Her People, Merlin. ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Now that gets quite the laughter from him.]

Thanks!

[boutant]

[ Oh, good. :3 ]

You're welcome. Maybe it would even help.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Maybe! It would at least shock him, I reckon, so maybe he'd come around.

[boutant]

[ There's a laugh of her own. ] Just let me know.

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Will do.
