video (un: man's greatest treasure)

[reparo]

[the video shows a very close up angle of her face, because someone hasn't bothered taking the pendant off to film this. there is a thin balance between amusement and panic on her face, too. she draws in a breath and:]

May have made a mistake.

[from beyond the video, a bird interrupts her confession almost on cue:]

CA-CAW

[she angles the video quickly to a murder of about ten crows in the grass, at her feet, looking up at her. she brings the video back to her face.]

Umm. I fed one. It followed me three days ago, and I had some biscuits in my bag, and I unthinkingly fed it. The next day it brought two friends over. The next day, they also brought friends over. [it's a pyramic scheme of crows.] And now this. [there's a bit more caw-ing in the background, and the camera shakes while she moves to clearly feed them again, because she doesn't know any better.]

Also one swooped down to nip at a villager's hat today because he was looking at me, so I think I might have a murder. Of crows. On my hands. [she's secretly pleased with that wordplay.]

So - that's all from me. Public apologies to the family for the ruckuss.

[ooc: SORRY FAM #10 but if you dont't want a murder of birbs, why claim a witch is your sister? dated to after the fox weddings.]

Do you know where the old tea house is? [Or what if, instead of giving her info on where she lives like this, she'll just say:] Actually, you know - Five's house.

[ooc; Ohhh I was gonna go with your call on it, but at most I think we'll have a very unimpressed birb.]

[rumorate]

Oh, you got stuck with him?

[She's sorry. She's so, so sorry.]

My condolences.

[reparo]

[that has her letting out a burst of laughter, before she slaps a hand over her mouth, feeling instantly embarrassed.]

Ha - yes, well. He's quite arrogant, and difficult to be around, and I'm fairly sure that a lot of people might describe me the same way.

[rumorate]

[She hopes that Hermione is at least 90-percent less murderous than her brother, just saying.]

Not in my experience, for whatever it's worth.

[Let's not get into the fact that a "difficult" woman is often just a woman who asserts what she wants, but that's another bucket of worms.]

[reparo]

[She would be 90 % correct about that hope, just adding to that. And here Hermione grins right at the camera.]

Oh, good.

[rumorate]

[Allison smiles in return.]

Let me know where you want to meet. I'm on my way.
