Lancelot

[hallapologies]

Pel crosses out of Daybreak territory and immediately the mark on her hand begins to itch. She clenches her fist, though she knows even thick gloves will not really hide the light. It seems to glow where the barrier between this realm and the Other is damaged, and beyond that, she hasn't figured it out. But it's a tool. It is going to work for the task she needs it to.

It's like a game of hot-and-cold. When the mark begins to fade, she has gone too far from the source of the disturbance and has to double back. When it is so bright that greenish light seeps out between the cracks of her clenched fingers, she is very close indeed. She hesitates just outside a skating park, watching a very young man--scarcely more than a boy--walk slowly away from his compatriots and into a nearby alley. She follows some ways behind. The Door opens, and she is ready.

As soon as the fae goes through, she raises her hand. A flash of green light shoots from her mark to the Door. It is completely indiscreet, but there are no other witnesses. In a few seconds, the door is not merely closed, but gone. The young man stumbles back with surprise, as if waking to find himself sleepwalking. She ducks aside before he regains himself, and watches from behind a wall for him to exit the alley. He does, none the worse for wear, bemusedly rejoining his mates.

Tal

[hallapologies]

She needs his help. Nothing else for it.

They first met in this park, and she has glimpsed him here since. She's here, hoodless, and intends to be so every night until he shows up or the missing kids are returned. She is only a weak witch, after all. Tal is a bloodhound, and that is where power is now.
