nothornlessrose: (These Clothes Give Alice Fits)
Late Thursday night, three girls with backpacks had made their way to the Causeway.

"Ranon is going to have a fit about this, you realize," the dark-haired one said tartly.

"Which is why we didn't tell him ahead of time," the red-haired one responded calmly.

"Ranon always has fits about something," the blond added.

"Yes, but this time he'll be having fits about Cassidy's safety."

"He told me that I needed to see more of what the people experience where the two of you are from, and he said that he'd start teaching me to fight."

"I'm pretty sure that he meant for both of those things to happen when he knew about them and he deemed it safe."

"Cassidy is safe with us," the blond said firmly as the portal arrived. "No one will get to her before we make it safely to where we're going."

"Besides, how much fussing and yelling can he do once we're already there?" The redhead asked cheerfully as she followed the blond through the portal.

"You obviously still don't have a clear understanding of Shalador males," the dark-haired one muttered, stepping through the portal. "Or Warlord Princes."

The portal disappeared and there was silence again.


[[OOC: Establishy as I may not be around for much of the weekend. Shira and Elle modded with permission. Cassidy and the other two are now off island. This was uspposed to be posted last night, but I was in too much pain to be at my machine. Yes, I expect Cassidy will be in a lot of trouble form certain people when she comes back. :D]]
nothornlessrose: (Can't Sleep)
After they got back to Fandom, Cassidy had gone immediately to her room. Out of habit, she put a Tiger-Eye shield up around the room and then changed into pajamas. For the longest time, she sat on the floor beneath the window, looking through some of her books from home. With everything that had happened this week, her concerns about holding the leash of a Warlord Prince seemed so long ago.

She would probably do research on jhinkas at some point in time, but that wouldn't be today.

After awhile, she put a warming spell on the bed and crawled under the covers. She had seen and felt a lot of things over the past few days and she wasn't exactly sure how to process it all. Besides the fact that she had met a very cranky Warlord Prince who happened to be her cousin, Aaron, and the Queen who wanted to be his Lady, Kalush, other things were not as harmless.

She was worried about Karla. She was worried about Jaenelle. She was worried about Raven. She was worried about Morton.

Mother Night and may the Darkness be merciful. She was worried about everyone that had been involved in what had happened. It was easier to just say that than to try to think about everyone separately. She didn't know all of Karla's friends that had been there, but she was determined that she would try to get to know them. Poppi would say that when there was a crisis, you should get to know everyone that was there.

Agio could definitely be considered a crisis.

Of course, she would do that another day. Right now, she wasn't thinking of leaving her room or talking to anyone tonight.

Too bad she had forgotten about the fact that a Queen was supposed to let members of her Court know her whereabouts and there was a cranky Black Widow looking for her.

[[OOC: For Shira.]]
nothornlessrose: (No Thornless Rose)
Since she didn't have an escort, Cassidy had not made any plans to go to the dance. She could just hear the things her brother would say if he found out about her going to a dance here without an appropriate male escort. (And really, the last thing she or Shira needed was for RANON to how up and be grumpy about them attending a dance by themselves.) After talking to a few of her friends, she discovered that she wasn't the only one that was missing the big dance.

She and Shira came to her room after going into town for supplies, and started setting things up. They had chocolate and sodas and a few other juices and snack items -- there was absolutely no alcohol as it hadn't occured to either witch that they should buy any.

She wasn't sure exactly what they were going to do for the night, but at least they would be among friends. She had also invited Elle because she figured that Shira and Elle needed to know each other and get along since they were both members of her Court. After the room was set up with food and drinks on the empty desk, Shira went to her room to change and Cassidy used the time to change into sleep clothes.

The door was open and some soft music could be heard coming from the room. Cassidy was sitting on her bed with a couple of books.


[[OOC: For Shira and Elle, but open to anyone who wants to see what the witchling type people are up to.]]

nothornlessrose: (Cassidy Studying)
It was probably a good thing that Cassidy hadn't been given a new roommate after Hiccup left because currently there were books and notebooks everywhere. Hiccup's bed had been pushed against the far wall and tilted up on its end and there were her two trunks against the bed and books and other things were spilling out of them haphazardly. In the middle of this chaos sat Cassidy.

She was in the middle of the floor, focusing completely on the book that was opened in her lap. She was positive that somewhere in her Craft books and the histories and the books of Protocol -- or even in her notebooks from notes while with tutors -- there had to be an explanation or guidance for how to deal with what had happened on Saturday night. She was convinced that there had to be. After all, she was almost sure that a Queen had to be higher in rank than the males of her court, and she was certainly not higher than Ranon of Shalador.

In one corner, was a pile of quills, pens and colored pencils. They were in a pile because she wasn't going to throw books when she got frustrated about not finding the guidance she was looking for.

Yes, she could have gone immediately to Karla, but she wanted to at least try to find her own answers about Ranon and the Protocol about what she had done to start forming her Court. She hadn't planned on forning a Court so soon, but she had wanted to make sure that there was no suspicion from Shira or Ranon about what kind of Queen she was and that she wasn't going to do anything to hurt them.

It was probably good that she had thought to put a yellow shield around the room -- but any one with a darker Jewel than hers would probably be able to come right in. Her psychic scent and the emotions that she was loosing in the room as she focused hard on the questions she suddenly had to find answers to.

Possibly she should have just gone to Karla first because she was really frustrated and the more she read and studied, the more confused and frustrated she was beginning to get.

Mother Night, she needed answers.


[OOC: For one. That they talked is okay to know. What they talked about is NFB right now.]]

nothornlessrose: (Out And About)
Cassidy had left her mother at her hotel room and after a long discussion about how she was perfectly safe walking in Fandom in the evening alone, Cassidy had promised she would go straight back to the dorms.

Which she was planning to do, really. She had said goodbye to her mother and left the hotel and started towards the dorms.

Only, halfway there, she heard the sounds of an argument and picked up the psychic scent of someone in distress. Deciding that she couldn't ignore someone in distress, she turned and headed down a side path towards the feeling. However, what she found annoyed the young Queen.

It was Shira and there was a male arguing with her and looming over her. Shira seemed more angry than scared, but the sight was enough to annoy Cassidy. She shielded herself and stepped out where they could see her.

"Hey! You back off and leave Shira alone."

Cassidy. Brave and fooslish sometimes.


[[OOC: For two! That she met someone new is okay. What he is is NFB!]]
