[When the feed comes into view everyone can see a very confused redhead, who seems to be investigating nearly every inch of the holographic screen that has appeared in front of him. There's a few moments of almost silence (the almost to be blamed on the muttered curses from this particular redhead) before he takes a step back and just stares.]


George and I always did try to keep up with the muggle things, but this is something else entirely. I don't suppose any of you have seen my brother, hmm? Red hair, freckles, looks exactly like me except slightly less attractive?


And Georgie, if you're seeing this, don't even try. You know I'm the more attractive one.


Alas, I digress. Name's Fred Weasley. Somehow I ended up in a strange room in a castle I haven't seen before. It doesn't compare to Hogwarts, but impressive nonetheless. And then this strange woman informed me that I'm now a part of the House of Loki? His name sounds familiar and I'm sure he was mentioned in one of the History of Magic classes back in school, but I can't be sure. And then out I go, to this strange place without a wand or a broom or anything! This is bullocks, I tell you. I had my wand on me before now...


And this bracelet thing? No kind of magic I've ever seen before. Too advanced for muggles but nothing like I've seen before. Reckon the charm they've got on this thing is brilliant, and I'd love to try and tinker with it but I haven't got my wand...


[Fred messes around with the bracelet as he talks about it, placing it up so he's looking through the hoop before spinning it around on his finger. He's pretty relaxed during his speech, but as it comes to an end he seems a little solemn. He looks back to the screen again.]


George, I'm hanging out in front of castle. Come find me, yeah?


[And then he pressed the jewel on the bracelet and the feed cuts out.]

What's a muggle?

[video]

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Non-magical humans. Most of the poor chaps don't even know magic exists.

I'll keep an eye out for yer brother! Family's got to stick together.

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Thanks! [he smiles] I didn't catch your name...?

[entreats]

'Slightly less attractive', huh? You seems to have a rather high opinion of yourself. [ Ange is frowning slightly, but it seems to be more her permanent expression than anything else. ]

There seem to be an awful lot of people talking about wands and magic here though.

[ video ]

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Nothing but the truth, I swear it.

And really? Huh, maybe I know some of 'em...

Hou, a lot of what you say is lost on me, but I must ask, my friend! Would you happen to be a magus?

Re: video

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Magus? [He pauses for a moment, not familiar with the word, until his face lights up because hey! He remembers that from his History of Magic class!]

I mean...I guess? The more modern term's wizard.

When are you from, mate?

[Magic? Wands? Consider him interested.]

If you look through the erm "hologram" you'll find a list of names. If your brother's name isn't there, that means he hasn't been brought to this place.

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

[You're just gonna get a blank stare for a moment or two.]

What'sa hologram?

[aeterno_arma]

What's a muggle, sir? I haven't seen your brother but people awoke in this city everyday, chances are that he might appear too.

This is nothing like the sort of magic I used before either, but I never needed a wand either. I'm part of the house of Sigyn, I think our districts are next to each other.

What was the broom for?

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Muggle's are non-magical folk. And yeah, he's probably here somewhere. We don't go very far without each other.

Wait...you've never heard of a broom? Or used a wand? What kind of magic did you do?

[ Alas, only one thing really struck out to her here and that's-- ]

History of Magic?

[ video ]

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's one of the classes I took back at school.

Audio;

[grave-of-roots.livejournal.com]

A modern magus? You know, it's pretty refreshing to hear one speak like regular folk.

[audio]

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

Magus? Mate, we're called wizards now.

[video]

[powerforfriends.livejournal.com]

...Muggle?

[Definitely not a term he is familiar with.

...Not that that's important right now.] I'll keep an eye out for your brother.

[Missing your friends is bad enough already after all; he can't imagine what it must be like with family (...but then again, Aqua and Ven are about the closest thing he has to family anyway, so maybe he can).]

I don't know, that bracelet seems more like some type of technology to me... or it might be a mix of both.

[video]

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

[He's beginning to regret using the term. So many people who don't know what it means...good job, Fred.]

They're non-magical people.

[But then he smiles.] Thanks, mate. He shouldn't be too hard to find, tells terrible jokes, out-right unfunny if you ask me. And his nose is a bit crooked. [Yeah at this point he's just being ridiculous. But then he's back to the bracelet, looking down at his wrist.

...technology? Let's pretend he knows what that word means. It's like muggle things, right? Yeah, we'll go with that.]

I haven't ever seen something to this degree, technology or magical, so it could be both. I could see that.

[When George saw Fred's message, he was, first of all, ridiculously happy.

Then he was annoyed, because bloody hell he's been looking for him everywhere.

Aaaand then he was unsure because his brother was blabbling about magic over a muggle device. Which, y'know, not the best idea. Mum's going to give him an earful and a half for that.

But none of that is important now that George is in front of the castle, and shouting.]

Oi, I think you meant slightly more attractive.

[action]

[trickstersdee.livejournal.com]

[So Fred is not at all worried about the whole 'talking about magic on a very muggle-like device probably to other muggles' thing. Nope. More worried about finding George, and yeah he didn't even think about it.]

[But then he hears a very familiar voice and turns to see a very familiar person and he beams, before half-running over to his twin, grinning all the while. When he finally gets there it's a quick hug them handshake, secret handshake.]

No use in lying to them, Georgie. If I was gonna find you, had to tell it like it is.
