[queen_titania]

I can count on one hand the number of mortals who have strayed onto my forest path. Are you dim of wit? Or are you so tenaciously curious when it comes to my kind that you cannot resist the lure of being in my presence? {It could be both. Easily.} Thus far, I am unimpressed. If you wish to keep my attention, entertain me.

Perhaps I will fulfill your wish. {A soft, throaty laugh follows that musing.} It is equally likely that I am the last being you will ever see.

{She reclines in her bower and nibbles on some berries that almost look like grapes, but they're...gold.}

[ohshitfuck, Puck's mom. awwwwwwkward.]

Last being our last...anything?

[queen_titania]

That is up to you.

[doubleroseknight]

[...Oh. Well. You're the last person he ever expected to see.]

...Your highness.

[queenofsneaks]

[Well, maybe this is a different Titania. Who doesn't know that Sabrina's currently dating Puck. Or maybe she isn't Puck's mom in some verse. Wouldn't that be wonderful?]

I'd say that there's no last thing, and you're just being crazy.

[queen_titania]

{ This Titania's universe is a little different. But she is well-acquainted with her son, Puck }

Not many would dare to say such a thing to me.

[queen_titania]

{ Surprise? }

Greetings, brave Knight.

[queenofsneaks]

[THERE IS NO GOD IN THIS VERSE FOR SABRINA!]

Are you kidding? Puck has said the same of you. Right after he tried to pry you off him when he had to leave New York City.

[doubleroseknight]

[This is all kinds of awkward, actually. Maybe she's forgotten about him. He should be so lucky.]

Few would be able t'resist ye, Milady.

[auberon]

Is that a promise?

[queen_titania]

Since when do I make promises to mortals, love?

[queen_titania]

{ Her memory is...selective to say the least. }

Isn't that part of the fun? { For her. } Are you entrapped in my spell as well?

[queen_titania]

{ Aw why not? Gods are the greatest! It's the fairies you have to watch out for. }

You... { Delicately phrased. } ...are not Puck.

{ As for the rest, she isn't making any comment. Oh mortal woes, how bothersome! }

[doubleroseknight]

Once, many years ago.

Do ye remember the name "Tam Lin," Highness?

[Pleasesaynopleasesayno...]

[queen_titania]

Hmmm...

{ Here is where she rolls over onto her stomach and taps her colorful fingernails against her equally colorful lips. }

I cannot say the name rings a bell.

[rules_winter]

Mortals are foolish creatures.

[doubleroseknight]

[His expression softens in relief, his posture relaxing as well.]

Ah, I see. All the better for me, then.

And where does the one who holds your reins plan t'steer ye, Madam?

[queen_titania]

Something you know well, I've heard. Silly lovers are a dime a dozen in the Fae forests.

[queen_titania]

When you put it like that, I sound dreadful. { And she's not dreadful - she's bored. }

She will not say, though I have threatened her plenty.

[doubleroseknight]

['You are dreadful,' he doesn't say.]

Mortal though they are, you'll find that they lie even beyond your grasp, my queen. We are as playthings in the hands of babes.

[And yet he seems far too amused by this thought at the moment.]

[rules_winter]

No more than you. Though I rarely find anything described as 'silly' traversing my snowbound ways. Mortals without power do not make it far once they pass into Faerie in my domain. My subjects enjoy a quick snack.

[queen_titania]

{ Pout. }

Surely you jest? { He seems...amused. At her situation? At his? } No one and nothing is outside of my grasp.

{ Just outside of her interest. }

[queen_titania]

Perhaps you should teach your subjects to enjoy playing with their food?

[doubleroseknight]

[At hers. Though they're in the same position, she still seems to be new to the concept, so pardon him if he indulges in some Schadenfreude.]

Truly? [He raises an eyebrow, a wry smile painting his lips.]

[queen_titania]

Would I lie? { Yes. Yes, she would. }

[rules_winter]

The creatures that stalk the Ways are remarkably uncomplicated. Those with more patience prefer more difficult prey than fools who wander accidentally. We have both been rather too busy recently to play with the uncomplicated in my world.

[doubleroseknight]

You are Fae. [As if that's answer enough.

Tam Lin just seems to be growing more amused by the second. A pity she doesn't remember him. It would have made this all the sweeter.]

[queen_titania]

Pity. { Though the word falls flat. Titania could never - and would never - understand pity. } Winter is a far gloomier season than the rest. I much prefer the height of Spring and the beginning of Summer, when foolish minds are intoxicated on a variety of brews.

Any human that strays across the Fae paths will find themselves toyed with mercilessly and, if they are very lucky, brought to the court of my King, Oberon.

[lordoftheland]

Ever as capricious when it comes to mortals, fair Titania, no matter what your world.

[auberon]

Since the wiles of women have been fickle, dearest.
