[004] all these blessings, all these burns;
[Elizabeth not talking about the nightmares, most of that happened over fifteen years ago, and her pride refuses to even pretend it still follows her about. But she's equally as annoyed about the missing alcohol, and her candles.]
Blast damn thieves.
What in this dear world do you all drink that doesn't give you plague or sickness? And how do you light your rooms with no candles?
[She's grumbling because she can and because it's safe to grumble about. That and she's genuinely has no idea what's safe and what isn't, not without a food taster at least. Apart from that, she's in her rooms and keeping to herself, her head is hurting again, far past that, even just the slightest breeze seems to make the skin sting. So she's kept her white bandages around her head with putting her wig on, knowing she had to do something about it soon.]
[Lucrezia Borgia]
Loe I confesse, I am thy captive I,
And hold my conquered hands for thee to tie.
What needes thou warre, I sue to thee for grace.
[Galadriel]
I love but one, and hir I love change never,
If men have Faith, lie live with thee for ever.
... I thought perhaps you like those words, if you are so inclined to poetry. Words written by a man of my world before my time, to his lady love.
But that aside, I would have a favour to ask you. You told me when we met that you had considerable skill as a healer? If so, I have need of your services.
[Arya Stark]
Little Knight, I find myself in need of your help. Take pity on a poor queen, would a good knight? I need someone to explain how these devices work in the kitchen, and I couldn't bring myself to ask anyone else. [read: oh dear god her pride.] Oh, and I've a gift for you, should you like to have one.
[Katniss Everdeen]
[Outside Katniss's room, there's just a little plain wooden box with what seem to be a set of silver hair pins. They're very pretty, and very sharp, enough to slice through skin easily if it came to it. There's a note attached.] These were given to me by an ambassador from Turkey, who got them, supposedly, from China. He told me that which is beautiful can also be deadly, and especially when no one bothers to look. I've no use for them, but I think you will. For the next time you feel so defenceless. Elizabeth R. [it may of been a dream, but Elizabeth never forgets when someone dies to defend her, or serve her in any way. Especially from someone who isn't in her service at all.]

no subject
I understand it's a extension of the same thing. But most of it goes over my head.
no subject
Oh, I see! You're much more knowledgeable about this sort of thing than I am. So a "battery" is somehow a form of "electricity"? Those glass spheres I keep seeing, are they also powered with "batteries" too? Or is that "electricity"?
no subject
I could not tell you the difference between a battery and electricity, but it seems to something similar...
... But the spheres are powered from electricity, so I understand it.
no subject
So they are similar, at least. And the spheres (I forget the name of them, unfortunately, light somethings) I've been told can run for months! Is that true? I haven't known a torch or a candle that lasts longer than a day or two.
This castle is simply fascinating with all its new things. Clearly not as magnificent as Mistress' castle, though, but still tolerable!
