(she and mordecai may not have gotten along well the first time they met but considering what she learned researching with tech it seemed wrong to not at least share what she knew. despite popular belief, she does have a moral compass. sometimes.)
[ After their meeting, he's had conversations with not-mum and not-brother that made him a little more uneasy. Belladonna had asked him if he loved Mammon, and he couldn't say that. Yet, whenever his eyes land on him, he feels drawn to him. It's just ... not love. ]
[ Meaning their souls would belong entirely to him? It triggers two opposing thoughts.
Why wouldn't he want to belong, body and soul, to Mammon?
He'd carved out a space in the universe where he belonged with his very own hands, and the memory of that and the people in it is more important than ... anything. Isn't it? ]
yo. so uh....i think we only talked once on the network?
about your shitty world.
anyway, didn't expect i'd be acting like the sacrificial lamb for you in the near future after that. so that came outta nowhere
point is, you're free. no more attachment to mammon. marriage is officially annulled. souls are supposedly restored. you're welcome
but since i will be enduring a fuck ton of torture on yours and wuxian's behalf, i do expect a favor to be returned in the future when i need it. only fair.
It has been years now since Hell has been redone and made even greater than ever before. And you, my prized guest, have made it twelve months in your journey towards redemption. I know that there have been bumps along the way and we haven't always seen eye to eye, but I do wish to show my gratitude. Together, we will all leave Hell one day.
I have handpicked gifts specifically for you to commemorate this anniversary. I do hope you enjoy them.
A basket of assorted candies, but also bird treats and shiny toys a bird might enjoy playing with
A gilded cage with plenty of space, but it’s still a bird cage
A voucher to get out of torture. It may be transferred to another party.
Again, I thank you for all of your help in making Hell what it is today.

Enlighten me.

The spell was not just binding us to him, it was also stealing our souls -- if he got the chance to complete it we would be left lifeless husks

So you mean to say he partly succeeded?
no subject
that would be how it seems.
(she is trying to work on a way to break it, but she doesn't feel like she should share it too much.)
emmanuel's sacrifice kept him from fully succeeding

[ He's not an idiot. Clearly, she intends to do something about it. ]
no subject
(she doesn't respond right away, wondering if she should play her hand or not...but he could be useful, potentially, if he wanted out of it too.)
i'm going to find a way to break the spell, to free us one way or another. that's how i found the spell in the first place.

i do.
(maybe that's foolish of her, to think she can undo the magic of a hell lord....but yennefer has never been known for her modesty.)
no subject
Good luck, I guess.

you're not interested in getting your freedom back?

It's possible. But you could also already sabotage me with just the information I've given you alone.
no subject
Don't know what I could do. Magic's not my area.
no subject
well, no one's forcing you.
no subject
If something needs killing I might think about it.
no subject
duly noted
(and with that, she ends the conversation, there doesn't seem to be any reason to keep it going.)

You just say when, amigo. Good work deserves good pay.
