[She really does hate this place. She hates being trapped here and she hates all of the magic.

She. Hates. All. The. Magic.

She especially hates the magic that is making it rain directly above her head. Has been making it rain directly above her head ever since she and Dominique had reemerged from their trek off the beaten path in search of magic dirt. An expedition which Jackie had only agreed to go on because nothing hideous had happened at the dance.

That would teach her to have a modicum of optimism.

She's soaking wet, dark hair clinging to her face, which obviously bears a sodden and unhappy expression. The vine comes upon her sitting on the steps leading up to Caprica's house; she obviously can't go inside like this, not without making a mess. Jackie just stares at the vine for a moment before her mouth twists and she tells the mirror,]


Would you fuck off?

[She wraps her arms around herself miserably, huddling into herself.]

Good luck. You can't throw a rock without hitting something weird or magical around here.

( That might have sounded scathing, but it wasn't especially pointed. More just an observation on how freaking weird this place was. )

( Ellie makes a face. )

Dead things tend to bloat if you leave them too long. If you went swinging one of those around, you could end up covered in guts and shit.

( She has seen cows that drown and bloat up after floods. Trying to move the bodies afterwards was never good. )

Welcome.

Next time I can tell you about birthing a calf that's already dead.

Yup. Sheep and cattle, mostly.

( Her head tilts. ) City lady?

( Jackie's older and doesn't seem like a hick rural. Counts her as a 'lady' in Ellie's book. )

Hm. ( Quietly amused. ) I like camping.

( Or... she did. She hasn't worked out if camping is something she never wants to do again, just yet. ) Normally, anyway. Must be an inbred rural thing.

( There's almost a smile with that. Alllmost. )

First thing you'll want to do is put a bunch of rocks in your bed. It doesn't matter what you do, they always manage to get just where you want to lie.

( The Adventures of Jackie and Ellie: skipping through fields of flowers and camping scathingly. )

( She shrugs. ) I'd rather have less rocks interrupting my insomnia, personally.

( The lineiest of faces, although it's a vaguely amused sort of lineface. She's been sleeping outside for the better part of a year, lady. )

If I'm the princess, the Royal family is pretty buggered.

Eh? ( . . . Oh. ) Hah.

Yeah, probably just a bit. Maybe they'd be better off with you as the princess, then.

I'll get to work on that crown asap. Maybe you can usurp our beloved royal here, or something.

( In all fairness, that might actually shut Ellie up for a second, before she tries to recover with a comment about the world needing less royal morons anyway. )

You don't need an army when you've got me around, your Highness.

( Have the worst salute ever, because like hell she's going to even pretend to curtsy. ) Let's go drum up those loyal subjects, hey?

I'll try not to make you regret it.

( Somehow, she doesn't sound very optimistic. )
