[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.]

[Dominique shifts a little, getting comfortable. It isn't ideal, the entire situation, but Dominique can't get sick and it's rare that Jackie will let her wrap her up like this. She presses a kiss to the side of Jackie's head, the length of her hair already soaked through.]

It's only a little water.

It's a lot of water.



I'm puddling.

It will fade, soon.

[Hopefully, at least. She's been informed the strange effects of the wild places don't stick around for too long, but her concern and care for Jackie makes any length of time too long.]

I brought out blankets and towels, if you get too cold.

The Queen really has a terrible sense of humor.

[Dominique frowns slightly, tucking Jackie in against her.]

You think she means this as a joke?

This whole place is a horrible joke.

[Dominique shifts slightly, reaching over to grab one of the blankets, shaking it out and wrapping it around Jackie.]

I am not sure she brought us here for entertainment.

Prove it.

[She's quiet for a moment, thinking over all the things they've seen and experienced since arriving here, the things she's been told about from before. But in truth none of it could be used as evidence, if the Queen was lying, using trickery to have them act out as she wanted them to.]

I can't, not for certain. It is a... [She frowns a little, can't remember the right word in English.] feeling? Deep feeling?

Mmm.



She needs to stop playing god, either way.
