Accidental Video

[refinedvillian]

About Lydia...What must I do to make her like me?

[To ask such a question, Edgar's guest must have been close to one of them but when the video opens, his guest if hidden off screen. Somehow, the view changes and Nico, Lydia's fairy cat for those who know her well enough, is shown to occupy the second seat and he doesn't look the least bit pleased.

Neither does Edgar, with his chin propped up by his fist.] There isn't any man she fancies, right? So I thought I had a good chance.

[His words seem to make Nico angry enough to have his fur stand on end. His meows go on for quiet a while, Edgar looking surprisingly chastised.]

I'm sorry. Let me ask the butler to bring that over? [That catches the cat's attention.]These are chocolates filled with liqueur, just imported from France.

Please, help yourself. [They were useless words as Nico is already doing just that, in a very uncat like manner.] Consider it my thanks for just now.

[Maybe it's those words, maybe it's the thought of Lydia's happiness but the fairy stops, looking at the food for a second.

As if he understood, the video ends on Edgar's response.] Yes...I understand.

Comments

Ah, I will. I'm not looking for forced affection.

[cleanestwitch]

I'm glad to hear it.

[refinedvillian]

Then, a question for you. Your family, is it well? Have you heard from her?

[cleanestwitch]

My great-niece is well. She visited her younger sister recently.

[refinedvillian]

I would enjoy seeing her again, though it seems I did talk to her recently. [She wasn't very secretive during the secrets.]

[cleanestwitch]

Oh? I had not heard.

[liar, liar, skirt on fire.]

[refinedvillian]

[Why you be lyin'?]

No? She did so while anonymous. I do wonder how she managed, if you have her device.

[cleanestwitch]

[cause she caaaaaan.]

There are a great many magical items in my world. It is not all that surprising.

How can you be sure that it was her though if the responses were anonymous?
