#Curious Archer Hen Night

[enixamyram]

What were Alice and Robin’s bachelorette/hen parties like?

Robin went traditional. Alice... Not so much.

In Hyperion Heights, Robin went out with her mother, her aunt and Sabine. The four women decided to visit some local clubs in their home town. It wasn’t exactly Regina or Zelena’s idea of fun (they certainly didn’t enjoy being hit on constantly by a bunch of sweaty dancers), but Robin seemed to like it a lot and it was her night after all. Sabine, also turned out to enjoy being able to let loose and have a laugh as well - after all, she said some of the clubs they visited were just like a type of a exotic ball! The biggest trouble they had was when Robin started a fight with a woman who made some comments about her outfit. Regina and Zelena split them up and were about to walk away when the girl called Robin a homophobic name. After they were done with her, the four women were escorted out by the bouncer and banned from returning. Robin, still quite intoxicated, found the whole thing hilarious. They ended up back at Roni’s where they nursed hot drinks to try and take off some of the hit they’d all suffer tomorrow and Regina and Zelena shared with Sabine (and a red faced Robin) some fond memories of her more juvenile years.

Meanwhile, Killian took Alice, Henry and Jacinda to the Enchanted Forest for her Hen night because she’s a Jones and they don’t do anything traditionally. Instead they spent the night on the Jolly Roger. The idea is to settle down on the ship, have some drinks, play some music from the battery operated stereo that Henry brought with and to treat the whole night like a cruise, however they ended up running into a familiar not-so-friendly face (Ahab) and were involved in a battle for the Jolly Roger and their lives. Thanks to Alice’s magic, as well as Henry, Jacinda and Killian’s swordsman skills, they were able to win the fight and get away relatively unscathed. Killian attempted to apologise to Alice for ruining her hen party with his bad reputation, however Alice reveals this was the best night she could have thought of. Because there was no greater party for her than having a real adventure with her papa. The rest of the night was spent using the Jolly Roger to travel to nearby wonders and see the sights on the sea and sharing in one last adventure before Miss Alice Jones becomes Mrs Alice Jones.

[P.S. Rumple was invited to join Alice on the Jolly Roger but instead chose to stay and babysit his great Granddaughter - Hen nights and parties aren’t really his thing.]

WIP: Fire and Blood

Mama shuts the curtains all over our cottage. In the kitchen where they are thin linen, she tacks up a blanket. The kitchen faces away from the main house, so I'm not sure sure she needs to, but she insists, always, that we take every precaution.

We have an oil lamp for light, but I know that we expect to brighten things up a lot more than that. Across the kitchen table, a pot of earth, a bucket of water, and some candles wait for whatever Tristan, my tutor from the Collective, has planned.

“Thank you, Aysu.” he smiles at Mama. “In addition, do you have any very old rags? Ones that won't be missed?”

She frowns. Everything would be missed, but Tristan has round ears and doesn't live on a farm so maybe he doesn't know that. Still, she goes to the cabinet in the corner and takes out a few of our housekeeping cloths. “Are these enough?” she asks.

“Should be, should be,” he says. He must have read the look on her face and so his own softens. “I won't use any more than we have to. I have some gauze in my pack as well, so we shouldn't need many.”

“What are your plans this evening?” she asked. I'm not sure why she's asking since if he explained it to her, it wouldn't make any sense. Mama has no magic and never sits in on my studies anymore.

“Elements, I think.” He rubbed his blonde, whiskery chin. “She's best at those, which will make it easier to reveal any improvement. I want to see how she progresses and I have a few things to show Nisha that should help her out of tight corners.”

Mama smiled. “Good. Keep my baby safe.”

“I'll certainly try.”

“Mama,” I huff. “I'm thirteen, and sitting right here.”

She smiles down at me. I hope I'll be as pretty as she is when I get older. Her deep, glowing skin, black hair, and dark eyes never change. I watch Silas and Martha, the farm owners, get older by the year, but not Mama. Papa has pale skin and bright orange hair. He burns a lot and has freckles. I combined them and have dark red hair, medium skin that is still darker than anyone else's on this farm except for Mama, and even so I still get freckles. Papa says they're cute, but he would, wouldn't he?

“What are you thinking about?” she asks me. “You focused very hard there for a moment.”

“Can I borrow your lip color sometime?” I ask before I can think better of having this conversation in front of my teacher. I should have played it off as something about magic.

Worse, Mama laughs. “No, I'll make you your own. Blackberry color is all wrong for you. I'll make you a nice, earthy red.”

Tristan frowns and looks around mama to me. “Who sees you out here that you care about looking good for?”

“Me,” I say. I realize it's true. I don't care about anyone out here except my family and they love me despite everything I am. But I want to be the best I can, at everything, and that includes looking nice.

“There are times you won't want to stick out, you know,” he cautions me. His voice sounds casual, but he looks at me very hard.

“I know but I already do. I may as well stick out for reasons I like.”

“Fair enough. Anyway, I have a treat for us. We'll have a long night, but I have some tea I got from a Tevinter merchant. It smells amazing and will keep us going. Want some? Then we can get started.”

It does smell amazing. Papa follows the smell of spices in and we all share a pot. Tristan also has sugar and the resulting brew has a sweet, spiciness to it. It has... anise? Cinnamon? Something else in there that I don't recognize, but also pepper, weirdly enough. I love it and I feel alert and also grounded. I'm ready for the night's work. I'm possibly ready for anything.

“I haven't had that in a long, long time,” says Mama.

“Are you fron Tevinter, then?” Tristan asks her.

“No, but my papa was, she says. “His home stayed in his heart, even if living there is foolish for any elf.”

Living anywhere has its risks, I know that much, even if we have a peaceful place, now. Mama clears away the cups eventually. She and Papa go to their room, leaving us to it. You can't really get very far away from anyone in our house. It has a lot of rooms, but they're small. My bed takes up most of mine. Our whole house could fit inside the front parlor of the main house.

Tristan sits across from me at the table. “First, he says, “I want you to conjure flame for me, on the end of this candle.” He rests a tallow pillar on the table between us.

I do as he asks though i'm not sure why. This is easy stuff. I'm tempted to make it dance or something, but don't. We don't have much time and I don't want to waste it on arguments if there's a reason he only wanted a flame.

“Good, good.” He says. “Now, change the color of the flame.”

That is a little trickier. I focus. Fire isn't meant to be other colors unless it is burning something that changes them. Tallow and wick aren't among the items on that list, of course. I choose a dark red, stretching the color at the tip of the flame down the length of it. I notice that in order to achieve this, the flame goes cooler. Neat.

“Very good. Now I will do the same.” He does, after choosing the thickest candle from the stack.

We continue on in that vein for some hours. I try different colors, I summon ice, I shape the dirt in the pot, and turn some of it to stone. I'm flagging a bit. I ask if we should make more tea, or if we can at least take a break. Mama and Papa went to sleep some time ago.

“What would you do,” he asks, “If mage-hunters came to the door right now?”

“I'm not sure,” I say. “Run, probably. There's too much evidence of what we've been doing right now and I don't think I could lie that well.” Though I'm pretty good at lying. I've had a lifetime's practice.

“Very well. So you run. Which way do you go?”

“I head straight for the windbreak, heading away from town. I don't need the whole town helping them out.”

“Good thinking. Only in the trees, there's another one. He brought backup. This one is an archer. Now what do you do? There's only two of them, but they're in front and behind you.”

At least I chose a direction away from the main house and they might not see it. “Um. I guess I have to fight. I can't outrun an arrow. I set fire to the bow.”

“Ironbark.”

“Dammit!”

“Language.”

“Sorry. Um, I knock him over by hurtling rocks at him, run past, and shoot fire at him on the way by. I aim at his face, hoping it damages his vision.”

“How fast are you running, with the amount of magic you have left?”

I sigh. “Not very. I honestly don't see this going very well. I know the land and I hope they don't. Plenty of places to hide.”

“Plenty of time for them to gather reinforcements.”

“I know! This is why my parents won't let me do magic outside the house no matter what. The idea is nobody ever finds out so this doesn't come up in the first place.”

He nods understanding. “That is by far your best plan, but sometimes plans go awry. It will eventually come to pass that someone will find out, someone you mean nothing to. Or perhaps it's someone with an axe to grind, or a simple racist. Speaking of that, it may happen that sometime over the years you find yourself away from this farm and people you know and you're in some other danger. You need to know what to do when that happens because it certainly will.”

“All right.” I swallow, and I'm pretty sure he can hear it. I don't like thinking about this. I fold my hands tightly in my lap to still them from trembling. “So what should I do, if running isn't it?”

“Running might be it, sometimes. But for when it isn't, I can show you how to get extra power if you're in a tight spot. I can even show you how to make those hunters forget they ever saw you.”

“I've heard of that. Won't that just get me killed faster?”

“If anyone ever catches you at it. But the irony there is you can use it to make them forget what they saw. Yes, I mean using blood. It has two purposes. It can give you extra raw power when you need it, and it can also enable you to shape the minds of those around you.”

“That... I don't think I want to do that.”

“Good. That's the main reason I'm willing to teach it to you. In the Collective, we have to police ourselves. We can't come to the notice of the chantry, and that means taking care that nobody does anything to make us look bad to the people who know about us.”

“So because I don't want to mess with anyone's head you want to show me how to mess with people's heads. That makes sense.”

He chuckles, still softly. “It does, I promise. This is a road too dangerous for anyone who would want to use it to hurt people. You'll need to learn some of it from spirits. What happens to a curious spirit who spends too much time with someone cruel, or overly ambitious?”

“They turn into a demon, probably.”

“Exactly. Mortals can corrupt spirits. We are, at the end of the day, a worse influence on them than they are on us.” He looks sad, for a moment, and runs his hands through his tangled, gray blonde wisps that are escaping from the tie at the back of his head. “I don't think you will change any spirits you work with for the worse.”

I feel my face heat up. “What makes you so sure?”

“Your favorite hen was born with twisted claws. I remember when Bertie meant to kill it.”

I was so upset. I thought the chick was cute. It didn't ask to be hatched with weird legs, or to be hatched at all, come to that. Bertie, the housekeeper from the main house, meant to crush it. It seemed so cruel, and like such a waste, that I couldn't stand to watch her do it. I snatched the chick up, and ran off with it. I fed it from our grain and it eventually learned to hop and wobble around in an alarming and aggressive fashion. I named her Stars, after the white flecks in her black feathers. She never did learn to hunt mice, but bugs are no match for her. Maybe it's sad that my best friend is a crippled chicken, but I live in the middle of nowhere surrounded by humans much older than I am, so it is what it is. Anyway, she lays eggs as well as any hen, so who cares about her legs?

Tristan watches me for a moment. “Yes. Exactly. If you had asked to kill it yourself, I wouldn't have this conversation with you. Or if you had ever done anything worse than steal candy from Martha.”

I startle at that. “How do you know about that?”

“I was guessing. She can't keep a crystal jar of fancy treats on her side table with a child around and expect that none will ever go missing.”

I raise my eyebrow at him. “So I'm good enough to do bad magic.”

“It isn't bad. Nothing is inherently bad. Never hurt anyone you don't have to, and all will be well. Shall we begin?”

I nod. We do.

I use a tiny razor to cut the inside of my nose, the way Trystan shows me. He explains that you never cut your hands. That's the first place they look for scars. The best places are the nose, the inside of the mouth in a pinch, and the legs at about mid-calf, where people are likely to bang into things or trip on thorns. Scars are fine as long as they're likely, and if I heal them in the first place, they might not scar at all, but healing a wound used for magic is problematic, he says.

I feel nothing but pain, at first. Cutting my nose hurt so much. Tristan assures me that's good, that the pain fuels the magic. He asks me to do the candleflame colors again, and try to draw from the pain instead of my usual source- that I picture as a deep spring inside me, with blue moonlight shining on the water.

I think of a cup of blood to draw from, instead, but nothing happens. My magic comes from where it does.

“It's all right. This takes time.” Tristan blows out the candle. “Let me show you.” He cuts his own nose, and conjures flame, but his flame rises like a beacon from the wick in spirals of purple and green flame. It consumes the candle rapidly as well. The wax drips down the side to puddle the wax on the table. He banishes the flame with his magic rather than blowing it out. I'm not sure how he could have snuffed that thing any other way.

“Now, please try again,” he says.

And I do. It takes a while. I'm not sure myself how it goes, but I start to feel- maybe a little buzzed, and when I light the candle next, it is the blue of the lowest part.

“You did it, there. Not all the way, but some of that power came from your pain and blood. Think about how that felt. Follow the path of your magic back in your mind.”

I close my eyes and think about it. It sort of felt like a low-lying mist, deep, deep behind my usual fountain.

I draw a new magic, up from inside myself. I shiver. It feels amazing. My fire is the deepest red of all.
