"Perhaps after the seniors graduate."

"Yeah. We'll keep you in mind."

"And I'll keep you in mind."

What's Luthien think, are they about ready to cast?

She thinks so - this really is a beautiful piece of work, and it clicks just enough with their affinities to give an added boost.

Together, then?

Together.

And the spell works amazingly smoothly, though there's an undercurrent of a vicious, wild thing to it - probably related to how it invokes the Furies, honestly - but binding vicious, wild things to her will is kind of what El's all about. 

It shows them several people in real time, highlighted compared to their scried surroundings. The spell tugs against them, like it wants to leap forward and chase those deserving of vengeance to their deaths.

Let it go. Chase, attack, run them to their deaths all unknowing. She will see them die and they will not see her. No more courtesy than they themselves offered.

Hunt them with teeth.

The spell more than obliges, ripping from the sisters' grasp to tear after their hidden enemies, wounds opening on their victims' bodies like snake bites, like dagger thrusts. 

The results are bloody, and also contained. The spell chases their enemies relentlessly - but takes only the guilty, leaving the innocent unharmed (albeit slightly splattered with blood).

Never try to hurt Luthien's El ever again.

Never ever try to hurt El's Luthien.

She lets the spell end with vicious satisfaction.

"They're dead," she says, voice tight. 

Permalink

"Good."

"Your spell worked very well."

Permalink

" - I haven't gotten it to kill someone during the casting before."

Permalink

"Call that our little flourish."

Permalink

"It's an impressive one."

Permalink

"The potential's built in, you already have Alecto and the others written in. You just- let the leash slip a little."

Permalink

"Something I'll keep in mind for next time."

Permalink

"Let me know how it turns out for you."

Permalink

"Next time I get a good opportunity to test it."

Permalink

"Sure."
