may 15th, locket, voice

[erythristic]

Berserker, please respond to this when you're free.

[she uses the title just to be safe, because when you're not sure who you'll get and it actually matters, being polite counts.]

[cagedinflesh]

[It's Jekyll who responds, and quickly at that. He's just sitting in the library doing research, so he's free enough.]

Yes? I'm free.

[It sounds awfully formal - or does that mean she'd wanted Hyde?]

[erythristic]

Henry! Where do you happen to be?

[the cheer in her voice though implies the opposite - Henry was exactly who she wanted to speak to.]

[cagedinflesh]

[Oh- well then, nevermind!]

I am at the castle library, are you in need of something?

[erythristic]

I'll meet you there, then.

[the locket's cut off then, as she's clearly going to come down within the next fifteen minutes. wait for her, Henry...even if she doesn't know which section you're in and is going to have to check one by one.]

[cagedinflesh]

[She'll find him sitting at a table with books on alchemy piled high. He looks up from his current reading and sets it aside when he notices that red hair out of the corner of his eye. There are still scratches covering him, but luckily only a few more shallow ones are visible, all the stitches hidden by clothes.]

How can I help you?

[erythristic]

It's not that you can help me - it's that I've stumbled upon something to help you in this time of inconvenience.

[and then, without bothering to explain yet:]

How proficient are you in magic?

[cagedinflesh]

[-oh, well. That sounds very good, he could use quite a bit of help right now.]

Ah, luckily that is not a thing which is terribly affected by my loss, as my learnings started in life. I would consider myself rather advanced in some areas, yet exceptionally green in others.

i tried and failed to be eloquent

[erythristic]

Is one of those areas the magical application of force?

[telekinesis, bro, can you use it]

[cagedinflesh]

That would be something I've not made any attempt at.

[erythristic]

I assumed as much.

[and the book he was recently reading? she's plucking it up away from him, flipping it open and beginning to walk backwards away from him.]

Try and take this back from me.

[if they're lucky, he'll have some sort of insight on how to begin. if not, she's going to need to drag him out into the sunshine to work.]

[cagedinflesh]

[He pauses, trying to think of something that isn't simply following after her. Clearly that isn't what she wants, some sort of attempt related to the subject at hand, some kind of telekinesis. But...he really doesn't know the first thing about it. He has had telepathic links with his Masters, but that's still pretty different.

The poor weenie looks absolutely lost. He tried to invoke the same feeling as that Master-Servant link, but gets the feeling he's just in his own head and nothing more.]

[erythristic]

[she sighs after a moment, shutting the book between her palms and giving him a look that translates to come on then, outside with you and turns on her heel to lead the way.

where they're going is a small courtyard not far from the library, with enough space for the two of them to stand a ways apart, and she places the book to the side before fixing him with her gaze.]

I want you to imagine that you're reaching out and shoving me. You can reach your arms out like you're doing it, one good shove. But instead of the motion stopping, imagine it continuing, and think about pouring your energy into it. The motion of what you're doing will continue on without you, this is something you have to view as fact. Push with both your hands and your spirit.
