[the_effect_she_has]

FORM: Sending Crystals
SENDER: Emprise du Lion scouting party (various messages sent out)
RECIPIENT: To Commander Cullen, to the Magi Council, to friends and family
WHAT: Reports, personal messages, flirting, and general griping about SNOW WHY ALL THE SNOW.
WHEN: Covering the three weeks of Haring
WHERE: Emprise du Lion
NOTES: Mentions of violence, of physical torture, of death, and of course, complaining. Why snow why.

Further edit: Katniss's post is screwed up because I didn't realize sending crystals are only auditory. So, please if you will, Katniss is making weird noises in the background of her messages. If asked, she will describe what she is doing.

It's... oddly fitting, yes.

[ Their lives are beyond crazy. ]

Honestly, from what I've heard, it's not really antagonizing until he throws a knife at you.

[the_effect_she_has]

... I'll talk to Gavin about it.

[She would not deny that..]

- is he going to throw a knife at me!? He throws a knife at me I am punching him in the face, Ellana!

[serannas]

Oh, no! I mean, I don't think he would?

[ Oops. ]

I didn't mean to frighten you. Merrick is just... very angry, most of the time. But he's away from the clan now, and I really think he'll learn and grow.

[the_effect_she_has]

I'm not frightened - I'm damned angry. No one gets to throw a knife at me because he's having a hissy-fit.

[Huffs.] We're all angry .... all right not you. Or Salvatore. Or Airy.

[serannas]

Well... please don't be angry in advance of it actually happening? It hasn't yet. And don't bring it up to him or he might just do it to be a brat.

[ There's a pause before she answers. ]

I do get angry about things, but perhaps it's good I don't seem to be the type.

[the_effect_she_has]

....That's fair. He hasn't thrown a knife at me yet. And I sure as hell am Not giving him a reason to throw one.

[A faint snort.]

Probably best. We have enough hot heads around here.

[serannas]

We do. The others you mentioned and I can balance things out. Think before acting.

[the_effect_she_has]

I promise I will think before shoving Merrick into a snow drift.

[She's not going to promise anything else with her temper. She believes in keeping her word, after all. When she can.]

[serannas]

That's all I can ask.

[ Oh, Mythal, please let Merrick behave. ]

Will you keep me up to date on what's happening out there?

[the_effect_she_has]

Of course. I'm planning on sending back regular reports.

[serannas]

Good. I'll let you get back to things. Be safe.
