Summary: I don't regret it.
Warnings: a deliberate though nonfatal poisoning.
Notes: On the Lint Roller, kaybrooke asked Miranda "What is the worst thing you have ever done in defense of your family?" Fair warning: she's kind of scary.


I knew who she was as soon as I saw her.

Josephine Naftali, that's how Charlotte introduced her. But I knew her as Sophie Cyders, investigative journalist. Young, bright, and eager for a story. Vicious in chasing it. I suppose it was possible that she really liked Charlotte, but I saw the way she looked at my sister. I saw the sneer.

One belladonna berry in her ice cream sundae. That's all it took.

She didn't die, of course, but she spent three weeks in the hospital. She got the message.

I don't regret it. No one hurts my family.

Remind me not to make Miranda angry.

I just.

I adore how matter-of-fact she is about it! I REALLY DO.

[bookblather]

Yeah, uh, don't. She will end you without regrets.

Thanks.

What an elegant solution!

[bookblather]

Not the reaction I expected but Miranda thanks you kindly. XD

Thanks.

[kay_brooke]

Wow, that is scary. But understandable. Manipulating anyone is wrong, but with Charlotte it seems especially cruel.

[bookblather]

I know, right? She's just such a sweetheart. Although not so much when she finds out about this.

Thanks.

Miranda, can I introduce you to Torey? Because you have a LOT to talk about.

[bookblather]

I think that this is a plan.

[subluxate]

Next RP. Or, better yet, a crossover fic.

[bookblather]

You feeling up for some Interactive Art?

[subluxate]

I am indeed. It'd be good for both of us right now, I think.

[bookblather]

Definitely. I'll start the googledoc.

[subluxate]

=D This'll be fun.

[dark_kana]

Auch. Okay, do not get Miranda angry. I get it. :-)

[bookblather]

Yup. Thanks.
