" I'll see you soon. " She's gonna cool off the sculpture a bit so it doesn't melt.
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท 6d ago"That's the spirit." The bandit smiled and gave her a nod before pulling with a red blade. "I'll see you soon, sister." She cut the air at her side and opened a portal.
" I won't die before Cinder does, either. We're both going to outlive her. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท 6d ago"Yes, and as promised, I'll be rested and I'll take care of myself. I'll be damned if I die before Cinder does." Raven stood up from the chair.
" There could be a food shortage emergency, you never know. Just in case. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท 6d ago"I'm happy to hear that, but I would be a very bad leader if I ever got to the point of needing help financially."
" I should be offering you that as well. .... The ice sculptures *Are extremely profitable.. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท 7d ago"Anything you need, food, resources, protection... if you ever need something, you can reach out." Privileges of being Raven's sister...
Raven wouldn't have known when Altair was actually able to be found.. " I'll remember that. Though, I'm not sure what the tribe would help me with..? "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท 7d ago"I'm sorry to hear that..." If she could only have looked more for her sister... Found her earlier so she wouldn't have gone through all of this. "I know you are not struggling anymore, but if you ever need help with anything... You are always welcome on my tribe."
" It wasn't intentional.. When I first escaped, my only thought was to hide. Get somewhere I thought they wouldn't be able to hide me. I didn't even think about building a home until much later. I was using my bird form to hide out in caves, and blend in as wildlife. It was difficult to get->
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท 7d ago"Can I at least know why?"
" A couple of years.. .. I'm sorry I hadn't reached out to you in that time. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.Raven thought about it for a moment... while she was watching the ice on her glass. Maybe... a different kind of training could help too... "How long did you practice it?"
" I'm only good at shaping how the ice forms, really.. That's all I've practiced. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.She placed them on the juice. "Thank you, perfectly square cubes too? Are you sure you don't have total control over your magic and just don't know it?"
" Of course. " Just creating two ice cubes on the table, and handing them to Raven.
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.Raven smiled. "Can I ask for some ice?"
<- Will be pouring her some orange juice.
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."Orange, probably..."
" .... Juice, mostly. .. What's your favorite flavor? "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."It's fine, anything to drink?"
" .. I should have stocked up on tea. But I don't drink it as much as you do. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."To eat?... no... but I wouldn't mind some tea if you have some."
" Good.... Do you want anything to eat while you're here? "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."I will, I promise." Despite it all, Raven was a survivor. If she stopped to take a look at herself, she wouldn't have pushed herself so much.
" .. Just be sure to look after yourself, alright? "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."I'm apologizing for my state."
" Of course. It's our routine. "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.She gave a weak smile in acknowledgment, Raven was still seeing herself as a monster. Next to her sister, she always felt like a monster. "Next week, are we training again? I promise to rest and not appear here... like this."
" .... I suppose you're right.. " Thinking back to Salem, of course.. .. Why, of all people in the universe, was *She given immortality? Curse the brothers....
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."That is different. It's not a matter of if I can or can't. Is a matter of I have to. I can't afford to lose against her because that would mean death." She took a deep breath. "I won't die, ok? Monsters are very hard to kill... I learned that the hard way."
" .. That's the thing. I don't think you could beat Cinder right now. Normally we would have to pause training because *I* got exhausted. This time, it was you. Against an untrained maiden, who doesn't have a semblance, and wasn't using her powers at all. You really think you could beat Cinder->
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."Can't let anything happen to me, or who will train with you?"
...... Altair just sighs, and sits down. Resting her head against her knuckles. She doesn't really want to talk about this anymore. The room got colder. ..... Of all people to throw their *Life away being reckless in Evernight.. Of ALL people, it was the person who fears her the most and->
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.She sighed and leaned back on the chair. "It isn't, I know im not doing well. Don't get me wrong. But if Cinder came here today, I guarantee you, I would kill her."
.......................... " I didn't think stubborn overconfidence was your thing. " .... Raven was always smarter than this, wasn't she?
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."Absolutely, and kill her too." Big, weak, smirk.
" If you're not well rested then you're not well prepared. Do you think you could fight Cinder like this? "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk."I am prepared... I'm one of the only ones who can do this." She sat down on a chair. "But you are right... I'm not well rested."
" You won't be able to do that if you keep running yourself like this and get yourself kiIIed as a result. If you're going to spy on her of all people, don't you think you should be well rested and well prepared? "
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.Raven nodded and stepped inside. "I will... I just... need to learn something. It's been a while since I spied, I want to make up for the lost time."
" .... Is everything okay? " Obviously not, but she wanted Raven to say it.
The Bandit Queen@corvidmaiden.bsky.social ยท last wk.Raven looked down at her hand, seemingly only now realizing that it was shaking. . . . . "I..." She was a bit in shock.
