[sinistral]

[Bucky looks entirely unimpressed (which, honestly, is a pretty common expression for him).]

Anyone else wake up in a place they didn't go to sleep?

[A beat.]

Again I mean. Arriving here in the first place doesn't count.

[arrogator]

[She'll think about it, and just go with the first thing that comes to mind for the Knight of Treachery.]

Only thing that makes sense to me is to take that castle. Wouldn't answer the who or why though.

[sinistral]

[The castle hasn't escaped his attention; he doesn't think anyone has failed to notice it — or to notice how there appears to be no way to it.]

It might though. We might find some answers there.

[They might also find more than that — and more than they bargained for.]

[arrogator]

Yeah, if we figure out how to get there.

[Because she has no idea how to deal with that fog.]

[sinistral]

Never said it'd be easy.

[Or straightforward. But nothing about arriving here has been straightforward, so that's probably not a shock.]

But maybe the key doesn't lie in a frontal assault, as it were. Maybe there's something else on this island that would gain us access. I mean, how much of it have we really explored?

[arrogator]

Not enough if there's a secret passage or something like that out there.

[sinistral]

Exactly. Which means I think I know what my focus for the next few days is going to be.

[arrogator]

I'll poke around too, see if there's anything out there I missed.

[She isn't expecting much, but you never know.]

[sinistral]

Let me know what you do find, I'm going to start cataloging.

[And then there's that awkward moment of remembering that introductions never really happened. Oops.]

You can call me Bucky.

[arrogator]

[There's a pause because she's still not used to this.]

...Saber.

[Maybe if she keeps saying it, it'll sound less awkward, but no luck so far.]
