[Orb] GHB 20, Early Evening.

[golden_moon]

[When Selene appears in the orb, she's not quite her usual, princessy self. Several cuts can be seen on her face: cheeks, over her lips, across her nose. She seems to be ignoring them, but anyone can tell they probably hurt. Badly.]

Well, I have what I think is good news. Those stupid fucking thorns don't appear to be poisonous, either the actual thorns, or the vines they're growing out of. So we can check that off of whatever list we're keeping about what they damned things are and are not capable of.

[She sighs and reaches up to carefully rub the side of her nose, wincing just a little bit.]

The fuckers do grow right quick, however, so leave that one on the list. Strong, too.

[She shakes her head.]

So. When I'm back in town, I need to buy some pies or something. They don't have to be that good, because I had to save all three of the stupid bastards, but damn them if they didn't come running in when the damn thorns grabbed at me. Stupid fucks.

[She spits to the side, and growls.]

And since they will be jawing about it the first chance they get, the fuckers aren't lying when they say I kind of became a really, really big wolf to drag their sorry asses out of the fire.

[A huff.]

Oh. Anyone want a piece of the damn thorns? I had to dig a few out of myself after I got out of there.

[golden_moon]

Damn right I will.

[She snorts at him.]

Just because I've got nice hair and a fine bone structure doesn't make me dainty, boy, and you'd do well to remember that. I don't care who you're married to, you shouldn't imagine that just because someone is a lady, they're going to need you hovering over them all the goddamn time.

[She'll apologize, sometime. Really.]

[steelhearted]

I'm quite aware, my lady.

[Probably more than she realizes.]

I hope you return to the city safely.

[golden_moon]

Yeah.

[For a moment, she looks like she has more to say, but then the orb simply goes dark, instead.]
