hadriel | Video 3

[the video opens on Laura sitting on the edge of her bed, legs crossed at the knee. she's dressed and madeup in full eighties regalia, but her expression is more on the serious side than playful.

she's seen multiple posts about Caedra and has learned from their mistakes. so she's playing as nicely as she can]

Look, I get why people are so worried about Caedra going on a rampage and trying to kill a lot of people. It makes sense to be scared about that. But what if I had a way to keep her from being able to kill people in the first place?

[she holds up her right hand, a ring on her ring finger]

This ring keeps Caedra from being able to kill me. So I'm willing to let someone who knows about magic to study it and try to duplicate its magic so that other jewelry and trinkets can be enchanted with the same magic and passed out to everyone. That way, she wouldn't be able to kill anyone, even if she does decide to play nicely this time and not attack everyone.

I'm willing to turn the ring over to anyone who thinks they can figure out a way to use it to keep others safe. All I ask is that I get the ring back before she defrosts.

[either way, he's taking steps so that he doesn't hurt innocents. that's a really good thing in Laura's book]

It's okay. Everybody comes from different places. What's everywhere in one world, no one's heard of in another.

[she gives him a smile that's meant to be encouraging]

[Now he looks genuinely happy. He's glad that his friend didn't think he was lying.]

Thanks.

If you find someone to look at your ring, they can look at my limiter too. As long as they can do it while I'm wearing it.

[as far as she's concerned, it wasn't really a lie. he only didn't know he should mention it, so it's no big deal]

Okay. I'll ask. Though, I can't imagine Caedra wearing something like what you have willingly.

You never know. She might if she knows it's an option.

[Caedra was nice to him, that must mean she can be a good person if given the chance.]

[she really doubts it, but she's not going to start an argument]

Yeah. She might? You never can tell about some people.
