Is it strange for someone to still be kidnapped after a whole month? Arthur's been gone for so long.

[He sighs. There's rustling of paper and Merlin eyes Fina's notes with great trepidation. He cannot understand why he has not had some measure of success with them. They were so charmingly written, so thoughtfully recorded. He sighs for a second ( Read more... )

fina is an enchanted goddess among women, love spells never go well, event, merlin likes magic girls, copying arthur's stupidity, voice

Um.. more assistance?

[ voice ] awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 13:22:37 UTC

Y-yes. [He stutters a moment.] I thought maybe you could come with me when I tried to contact one of the spirits. You're so good at it. I imagine I could learn a lot from you.

[ voice ] silviteadvocate February 21 2010, 13:31:14 UTC

[ Merlin's stuttering has quite a profound effect on Fina. ]

U-Um.. really? But th-there are so many better teachers in the village.

[ voice ] awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 13:33:03 UTC

Oh, I am not too sure about that. Fina, your notes are superb. Very detailed and your handwriting is very, very accomplished.

[Only a lady of the highest breeding could write so well, he imagines.]

...Nino was gone... for two months.

[A pause and then to clarify-] Before she was... returned.

[Voice] awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 13:25:56 UTC

Two months? [He groans, in sympathy.] That must not have been an easy wait.

[Voice] taintedruby February 21 2010, 13:34:36 UTC

I did not wait.

[...That was said quickly; far more quickly than anything Merlin has heard him say so far]

[Voice] awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 13:36:20 UTC

What--? [He sounds alarmed.] Did you go to save her, instead? Did you find a way? If so, you must tell me--I have to rescue the prince.

I'm sure he'll be okay!

awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 17:35:12 UTC

I hope so.

hisonlytruth February 21 2010, 17:46:19 UTC

I think there are other who've been gone longer...

awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 21:49:24 UTC

What has the longest absence been?

...it's not strange in my experience. I've been kidnapped three times, and twice they were for about a month. It must be hard to wait, but who knows; maybe he'll return soon.

[Voice] awaitingalbion February 21 2010, 21:47:07 UTC

Three times. [A sigh.] That's...quite a few.

[Voice] eidolon_soul February 22 2010, 22:52:31 UTC

They've been spread out over the course of the year. I certainly haven't enjoyed them, but other people have probably had it worse.

[Voice] awaitingalbion February 23 2010, 02:54:41 UTC

A year. [Pause.] So many people have been here for so long.

A month? That's a long time... No one I know has been gone that long, but it wouldn't surprise me. Is Arthur a friend of yours...?

[voice] awaitingalbion February 22 2010, 02:22:02 UTC

He's...my employer.

[voice] poppetry February 22 2010, 04:25:38 UTC

... you mean like your boss? [ ... huh. ] Well... either way, I'm sure he'll be back soon. I've heard of people being gone for a few weeks, but never too long, if that helps at all.

[voice] awaitingalbion February 22 2010, 13:10:35 UTC

I-it does. But it's still tough to wait. I wish there was something I could do.
