Fifth Triskele ∴ [Video]

[childofthewickedday]

[Mordred has once again ensconced himself in what was once Morgana's closet but is now one of his favorite nesting places. The door is propped open by his boots to allow light in, and he can be seen surrounded by his books, his drawing paper, and King Arbird and Sir Freebird his stuffed bird toys. But his expression is dour and his fingers curled tightly around the black leather ties of his green cloak.] 

There is a pendant from my people....from my father... [A hand moves to the laces of his shirt at his chest] I have always worn it...but it has gone missing.

[His gaze drops down, frown deepening] 

I must find it. It is fucking important. 

[Yes. You heard that right. Said with the same distant, soft, yet pleading tone as the rest of his message, Mordred has mistaken the word  for a synonym to 'very'.] 

Comments

[fuckton]

[Even Debra Morgan, swearer extraordinaire has a problem with that.

So, she begins dubiously.]

Aren't you a bit young for that word?

[Mordred you're like fucking five or something.]

[childofthewickedday]

[Mordred's head tilts to one side, puzzled]

I do not understand.

[forgetforgive]

[ ... ]

Where did you learn that word from?

Re: [ Video ]

[childofthewickedday]

Which word?

[ealdorsprince]

Mordred. If Morgana hears you use that word you might get in trouble.

[Of course hearing him say it that way, his eyebrows raise.]

Where do you think you lost it? In the house maybe?

[childofthewickedday]

Trouble? For a word?

[Rules here are so strange]

I am afraid I might have lost it outside...

[pratentious]

Mordred!

.....?

[Confused stare.]

[hullo_sweetie]

[Language, but then again she's not really the mothering type]

Where do you last remember seeing it? Do you take it off at night before you go to bed?

Re: [Video]

[childofthewickedday]

I never take it off. It must have come untied somewhere.

[burping]

Mordred. [ That word!] You mustn't use that word. I will be happy to help you find the pendant however... you must mind your manners.

[childofthewickedday]

But I do not understand, Lady Mithian...why is that word different from others?

[Frowns more]

Does it make something bad happen?

[video]

[dreamspinning]

Important indeed.

Do you remember if you had it ere you slept, child?

Re: [video]

[childofthewickedday]

I cannot remember. But I have checked the bed and all the room...

[samantha_grey]

Well, yeah, I'd say something of your family would be fucking important.

[Not helping, Sam.]

Do you need any help, or have other people got it covered?

[childofthewickedday]

[He purses his lips, he now knows, after several people have flooded forward to tell him, that you are not supposed to say that word.]

Others have said they will help me.

video.

[veneficus]

Mordred!

[ actually the very same reaction as Arthur. She doesn't even. ]

Re: video.

[childofthewickedday]

[Mordred's eyes go wide and he huddles back a bit, nervous after Will warned him]

Am I in trouble, Morgana?

[verybigpheasants]

[ Oh no

this is

hilarious.

Yet Gwaine knows well how distressing it is to lose a token like that. Used to happen to him all the time. Laughing at language later, then. A great sacrifice for the greater good. ]

And where did you last see it, if you can remember?

[childofthewickedday]

[Mordred frowns deeply, trying to think. The pendant is so much a part of him it is like trying to think when last you paid mind to the back of your neck or if all your toes were still in place....]

...I had it yesterday....here in the house.

[video]

[sleeveless]

I will aid you in your quest, but you must make me a promise in return.

Re: [video]

[childofthewickedday]

A promise?

[Video]

[hadbadays]

Uh... I haven't seen a pendant, but--

Do you know what that word means?

Re: [Video]

[childofthewickedday]

....

[Mordred frowns, staring intently at him]

...Something important.

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

[ Well, Mordred's gotten help with the pendant already, so. ]

What do you think that word means?

Re: [Video]

[childofthewickedday]

...Something that is very good or very important
