[She wakes, languid and warm. She was back in her chambers. Hmm, someone must have fetched her after that debacle with She-Ra. Well, good.
She takes her time, changing into a fresh uniform (if you could really call the skimpy red outfit a uniform). She does her makeup at her vanity, brushes her luxurious hair until it shines, and settles her mask on her brow just so. She does a turn in front of one of her full length mirrors and is pleased with what she sees.
And then she steps into the hall and immediately the pleasure vanishes. This was not a hall she recognized, and she knew the fortress inside and out. She retreated back inside to arm herself, and she's even less pleased to realize her weapon stores are empty. Well, that's fine then, she was more than capable of handling herself without.
The one thing that she did find was a rather outdated looking communication device. She easily accessed it and began a quick skim back through the entries. Finding nothing significantly of use in the 45 seconds of patience she had for it, she decides to go the direct approach.]

[The woman on the screen is beautiful. She's also rather furious, and dramatic looking. Which does nothing to detract from her being beautiful. Anger looks good on her. Still there's a slightly different aspect about her, which is that just before she speaks, she emits a very catlike-like growl. Not affected. It sounds exactly like an angry cat. Right before it strikes.]
Who dares to take the Force Captain of the Evil Horde their prisoner?! I demand you show yourself to me!
[Such is Catra's way of saying hello.]

And who are you?
[There's a definite change now in demeanor. She looks at him with bedroom eyes and a small smile that is just flirtatious enough to show interest without going overboard.]

Date: 2013-11-26 05:41 am (UTC)From:And you are?
video
Date: 2013-11-26 05:47 am (UTC)From:I am Catra. What can you tell me of my...unfortunate cirrrcumstances, Loki of Asgard? [She did indeed purr that one word, just a little.]

Date: 2013-11-26 06:08 pm (UTC)From:Then there are those that have cut mysterious deals with The Admiral. The Wardens. They are those who seek to change us, to gain whatever marvelous reward their deal with the Admiral has promised them.

Date: 2013-11-26 10:10 pm (UTC)From:So it's brainwashing, hmm? Without magic? Seems a little roundabout. [She shrugs. Whatever. Let them use whatever backwards, ineffective means they like. She won't budge.
But back to him.]
How long have you been here, Loki? [She says his name like it's some kind of dark, rich confection. Something tangible, dark and sweet, she could roll around on her tongue.]

Date: 2013-11-27 03:01 am (UTC)From:[He gestures vaguely with a hand.] Now, what is this Evil Horde you spoke of?
video
Date: 2013-11-27 03:15 am (UTC)From:The Horde is the nation under the command of Horde Prime. We are tasked with conquering worlds in his name. I am the Force Captain of the army of the planet Etheria.

Date: 2013-11-28 02:58 am (UTC)From:[Well, the concept is certainly familiar even if the names are not. His opinion of her just might have gone up a bit.] You conquered this Etheria?

Date: 2013-12-16 09:35 pm (UTC)From:I hope the Admiral does not keep you from your task for too long. Choosing when we return, is apparently, a right reserved for the Wardens and graduated Inmates.

Date: 2013-12-17 01:30 am (UTC)From:She gives a small, elegant shrug.]
I'd be shocked if the prisoners were allowed freedom to just leave whenever they like. At least something makes sense around here.
video
Date: 2013-12-20 03:32 am (UTC)From:Though my own magic is weakened here, other Inmates have gained full use or their abilities through the whims of their Warden.
[Oh, he's keeping you.]

Date: 2013-12-20 04:03 am (UTC)From:[That's disconcerting. Her weapons were gone, but she hadn't tested the magic. She pulls the red mask down over her eyes. It's a dramatic looking fashion statement, but not much else. With a throaty growl, she puts it back up on her brow.]
Curse this Admiral! He's taken all my weapons and my magic! [Huff. Then a deep breathe. She's controlling her temper as much as she's able.] No matter. Even without I am not helpless.
