first cheer [ dictated / action ]

Coach?

[ Quinn frowned, putting her hands on her hips. She was outside and facing a castle, certainly not where she'd been a moment ago unless the halls of McKinley had had a very good makeover ]

When you said you wanted to see me I didn't think that kidnapping was part of it, I thought that we were past that.

[ She sighed, clearly dissatisfied by the lack of an answer. It didn't make sense though, and why would Sue bring her here? Or how? Quinn certainly didn't remember seeing anyone in the hall a minute ago... they'd won Regionals and she'd heard that Sue had wanted to see her, and the halls were empty at that time. So... ]

Not a Cheerio initiation trick then, although Santana would have told me if there were any new ones. That leaves Warbler, so much for wanting to do things fairly. We've already won, or are you really that sore a loser? It's not going to get you to Nationals, although hopefully this time to jail.

[ Not that she was really the best person to kidnap to affect New Directions - wasn't Rachel top of that list? ]

You can come out now, joke's up, it was funny. We're done.

[helljumper]

Does your Coach normally kidnap you?

[It's said a bit distractedly, but that was still the part that stuck out to him the most.]

[formercheerio]

I wouldn't put it past her.

[helljumper]

[An amused huff.] Sounds like an interesting teacher.

But unless your friends have the ability to drag people from different worlds and timelines, I don't think they're behind it.

[Unless she's from some sort of magic world. In which case, never mind.]

[formercheerio]

She is. [ It's an understatement ]

And here we go again. [ Sigh ] What do I have to do for real answers?

[helljumper]

Could try asking a question, but it sounds like you might have to experience this place before you'll believe anything I tell you.

[formercheerio]

You haven't exactly said anything that makes me want to believe it.

[helljumper]

True enough. [A chuckle.] Although it's not exactly easy to prove you've been kidnapped by a magic castle, either.

[formercheerio]

And there are two crazy things that you just said there.

[helljumper]

And here's a third.

Trying wishing for something. Like food, or clothing.

[formercheerio]

I think I've been through this before. Are you the genie or do people like pretending this kind of thing?

[helljumper]

I think if I was the genie, I'd be a bit more obvious about it. [Pause.] But no. The castle's the one that does the wishing thing, as far as I know.

[formercheerio]

Not if the wishing got abused. [ FROWN ] The castle does the wishing? That makes four.

[helljumper]

[He laughs.] So you're willing to believe in genies but not magic castles?

[formercheerio]

I don't believe that genies actually exist.

[helljumper]

Then you're going to be surprised by a lot of things here.

[formercheerio]

[ ... ] You could give me a clue.
