01 - Video: OPERATION: poke it with a stick

[magicalcupboard]

[What is this? The communicator turns on to

a stick. A long, twisty, gloriously brown thing that is repeatedly poking its screen.

Holding the stick is a kid wearing shorts and long socks and a beige polo shit but that's not at all important. It's a kid, and he thinks he's getting closer to triggering an unexploded bomb every time he pokes the strange device. He looks far too bored to be doing what he thinks he's doing.]

Boring, stupid thing. Germans can't even make proper bombs, the pigs.

[Poke poke poke

Alright, he's getting bored and he's dropping the stick

and he's bending over to pick up some rocks. Can you guess what they're for?]

Sure you will~.

[It's about this point she flips on the video feed and waives at him. Of course, she looks no older than 12 but looks can be deceiving.]

You're pretty short for a king~.

[Edmund gives a little start at the sudden face on screen

and the pink hair

and the taunt. His face turns a little red.]

I met the Queen and she said she'll make me her King! You weren't there so you wouldn't know.

So either your Queen likes little boys or she's making you do her dirty work. Both are pretty disturbing.

She- she said she wanted a boy all her own. And I'm a Son of Adam, and there aren't any in Narnia, so-- [So she's legit.]

[... The look she gives him is just..]

..You know, the innuendo writes itself. I think I'd like to meet this "Queen" and have a small discussion with her sometime. She can't be that powerful if she needs a child around for some reason.

[...do ten year olds even know what "innuendo" means? Welp, Edmund sure doesn't.] She is powerful, though. She's got the entire woods under her rule. [...which was horrible, but he's holding back the guilt with smugness.]

Re: [Video]

[crabbygenius]

..Woods. She rules over woods.

[She's starting to feel sorry for this kid in her own way.]

Then I wouldn't consider her powerful at all.

They're big woods.
