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?))

[There's a noise that sounds like the grimace he's making.]

Sounds like hate.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

[Is that a giggle? Yes. Yes it is.]

Fred gave one to our brother Ron.

[lkjasfkljdsg UHM??]

W-what?

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

[AHAHAHAHA YEAH WELCOME TO THE WEASLEY FAMILY.

Ginny starts laughing in full and she has to press a hand to her mouth to try and stifle it.]

When we were kids, he gave Ron an acid pop. Just for a laugh, I reckon. He also turned his favourite teddy into a spider, since I'm on that topic.

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[THANK... YOU... MAYBE...]

For a laugh?

Then what in the world do they do to someone they hate?

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

Probably threaten to use the less hilarious hexes or to stick pointy metal objects in you somewhere.

[The interest meeting for the DA comes to mind. But Zacharias Smith had it coming to him.]

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Just threaten?

[Somehow this doesn't really seem to match up, any of it.]

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

If you're lucky.

Don't worry, Merlin. I think they like you.

[ voice ] 2/2

[hexuality]

And so do I, for the record. You're safe.

[FOR NOW.]

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

That's, uhm. Good to know.

Suppose I'll just hope it stays that way, then.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

[YOU'RE MERLIN. OBVIOUSLY IT'LL STAY THAT WAY.]

Just don't do anything stupid and noble and I won't yell. Of course, I know how tall an order that is, practically everyone I know does that eventually, so... oh, well?

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[GOOD THEN.]

I'm afraid the chances of me doing that too are pretty big.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

[SIGH.]

Not surprised. But it was worth a try, all the same.

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[The smile is audible in his tone.]

Always worth a try. I'd imagine you do those sort of things too.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

Me? Oh, no, I'm the very picture of innocence. I'm very good at sitting quietly at home and minding my own business.

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Right. I'll believe it when I see it.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

Get to know me and maybe you will.

Or won't.

Whichever.

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

I'll put my money on won't.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

Oh, ouch. I see how it is.

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

You'll be fine, I can tell.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

Oh, can you?

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

You seem like a strong woman.

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

Size is no guarantee of power. That's what George says.

[ voice ]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Not sure he's following...]

Size?

[ voice ]

[hexuality]

I was just agreeing with you.

[She laughs.]

I mean—I don't know, I expect my brothers were fairly surprised when I hexed them for the first time. I'm not only the youngest in my family, you know, I'm also the smallest of the lot.
