Then we have one left. [Mags, you need to stop being so concerned for others] Pretty sure it's my decision on if I help you out or not.
By all mean, keep looking, but, look [So much sighing], despite what it seems like, I ain't one to go tossin' about wishes here and there, but if there's a way to stop something bad then maybe you should take it. Folks are going to die. Folks who have nothing to do with your Oath.
[Yeah, it's low of him to toss that at Mags, but damn it, the elf is one of his only friends in this place]
Clarisse La Rue. Interesting name. Stands out.
[Did he ever tell Maglor he was a thief? Ex-thief, except when it suited him to be a current thief Now if he could just get away from Big Brother, Celegorm]
One which to use might trap you forever, Will. [ no never ] And if I understood you aright when I made that first wish... it truly is not, Will - I heard how it forced you.
[ At the time he hadn't care much, but he does now ]
[ The mention of extra casualities makes him flinch ]
I know - I warned her of such, and I do not doubt that Celegorm did the same, albeit in less than kind words. And I sent word to the Seelie Queen and King, although I do not know if they recieved it. [ But the fairy that he sent with the message has not returned, and that is good enough for him ]
I... was planning on going in secret. If I wait, Celegorm will force my hand to war, but I might yet go and retrieve it in the confusion of the coming battle - hopefully without more lives lost. [ Apart from his own, perhaps, but it has become very obvious to all and sundry that Maglor cares very little for his own life ]
[Will is silent on that part, because Mags is right, it was fairly horrible when the magic of the curse took over his mind in that moment. Still, if Cyrus could get used to the cures than so could Will]
Oh yeah, that's a brilliant idea. The brother of the elf who is busy attacking, sneaking around, trying not to be noticed. Pardon my saying, but your lot tend to be fairly noticeable, not to mention how much you like to make friends on these lockets.
You need a professional, or at least someone to watch your back.
[ A quiet faint smile ] Celegorm is not the only one who knows how to wield illusion. And I would argue that I am a fair sight better than him at it - he was never one for subtlety. Believe me Will, with all of my kin here at the station, now, there remain precious few who could see me for what I am if I wished it otherwise.
[ it is how they got into the camp of the Valar, after all, ghosting past guards until they got to the very center ]
[It starts as an odd feeling in his gut. Was he going to be sick?]
Oh, bloody hell.
[Looking down, Will realized that it was less a feeling of being sick he felt and more a feeling of having his body turn to a rust colored dust. From the bag he had been keeping the bottle hidden came a small cloud of dust; it was the last thing he saw as the rest of him was turned into this magic form and took off like a small cyclone through the forests and roads and right to Maglor.
The dust reformed into Will and the bottle found it's way in Maglor's hand.]
Okay, that, that was not...yeah... [He leaned over, unsure if was about to be sick or not]
[ a startled look down the locket is the last Will will see of Maglor's face until he reforms. The hand not filled with the bottle goes to Will's shoulder, Maglor instinctively twining healing and comfort into his voice, the subtlest thread of power like a soft warmth (he is no healer, but he was not that long ago a father, and before all that he was an elder brother, and some things are instinct by now) ]
I am sorry Will, it seems a cruel way to travel. Will you be well?

And if we do not know if you will not get stuck, neither do we know if you will. I dare not risk it, Will. Not until I can work out a way to free you.
[ he blinks a bit in surprise at the question ]
Clarisse La Rue.

Are you offering, Will?

Date: 2014-07-11 12:11 am (UTC)Just let me get away from Big Brother.

Date: 2014-07-11 01:28 am (UTC)Thank you Will.

Date: 2014-07-11 01:37 am (UTC)Then, there's only one thing for you to do.
[So much hesitation. This better not be painful]
Call me back to you.

no subject

Now, what's this 'bout a jewel that needs thieving?
