001 💥 (VIDEO) ⇁ CHARM

[opheliac]

( so the holographic video begins with a close up of a girl biting her lower lip. the recording is wavering from side to side as if she's trying to do, well, something.)

Just a seeec...

( the girl says with more motion-sickness for the viewer. but she manages to get the mobile device propped up just right so she can be hands free. jinx grins big at her accomplishment while she scoots back in her seat, cross-legged. by the looks of her surroundings, she is somewhere up high, due to there being a lot of sky around her. and given the tiles she is sitting on, it's best bet she is on a roof -- possibly on the Inn's (and using the chimney to keep the device up). although everything seems to be squared away, she stays quiet -- just staring back with a smile so wide it could split her face in two. but then — )

So!

( jinx starts off as she digs in her pockets, then pulls out a pretty blue gemstone in which she carelessly tosses up in the air. )

What's everyone's crime?

( when she catches the gem with grace, jinx pops it straight in her mouth like it's a piece of candy. and as she sloshes it inside behind her lips, the girl looks up in thought -- talking with her mouth full no less. )

I got stuck with murder and illegal trading. So boring.

( rolling her eyes, jinx spits the gem out that's now filled with so much of her saliva (how disgusting), then resumes back to playing a game of catch with it. )

Sheesh, you'd think blowin' up a few buildings and starting a war would count WAY more. Whoever is in charge reeaaallly needs to fix their rating system.

[opheliac]

Are you meanin' to tell me you showed up here with nothing? HA! — That's gotta blow, huh? I came here with all of my babies.

( and she will happily gloat about them, too. )

[morsangel]

Unfortunately. I did come with my cleaver, but I am not willing to part with that I'm afraid. And I'm not sure you would be all too interested in make up, hm?

What are these babies you speak of?

[opheliac]

How about this lil' number: You got that, right? Meaning you got the know-how on how to use it. Soooooo... if there's someone I think is of need of some knifeplay, you swing my way? Do that in an exchange for me accomplishing a way out.

( her pink pupils shine feverishly over her own contract, and the grin is incredibly impish and slimey. but she waits patiently though with elbows prop on each knee and fingers twine together. )

[morsangel]

[ Yosano wasn't sure how she felt about torturing someone for this girl. Mind you, it wouldn't be the first time; however, she was uncomfortable leveraging her ability at all. She preferred to use it only when necessary. ]

If the way out is legitimate then I will have no qualms agreeing to those terms.

[ Her first priority, however, was to get home to her family. ]

[opheliac]

Yay!! Watch out world, Jinxie just got another ally...! Muahahaha!!

( jokes aside if this place is actually prison and it's simply disguised to be beautiful and lovely, a cell mate needs other mates to watch their back in case something sneaky goes down. )

[morsangel]

[ Oh dear. Yosano wasn't quite sure what she had just gotten herself into, but she was never against aiding a younger person who was probably in desperate need of positive influences. ]

If you have any physical injuries I am more than welcome to assist. Knife play excluded, of course.

[opheliac]

Well, aren't you a sweet cake? I'll remember that! But don't expect it happenin' too much. When it comes to injuries, it's always the other guy.

( or sometimes they get so banged up, they won't be able to move for a week. or... ever. but now that's out the way, jinx feels it's time to ask some real questions. )

So! — How long you've been cooped up here? Anything I oughta know about?

[morsangel]

Wonderful. I would rather they not die, so please do send them this way.

[ A pause. ]

Ah. I only arrived a few days prior to you. Though it appears others have been here for months. And there are a few unsavoury figures among them.

[opheliac]

You got the names of who've been stranded her for that long? ( a beat. ) A girl's curious.
