Ficlet: "Shard"

Not a Passchendaele ficlet but a Magicians one: for both the [community profile] femslashficlets prompt "Sharp" and [personal profile] greywash's Marina/ladies mini-fest (DW link for more information: go sign up to write your own theory about who Marina is dating!).

Title: Shard
Fandom: The Magicians (TV)
Pairing: Marina Andrieski/Victoria Gradley
Rating: Teen & Up
Prompt: "Sharp"
Word Count: 1000
Tags: Blackmail, Mirror World, Canon-typical blood offerings, Doppelgangers, Fragmentation of the self, Nonstandard use of lawn implements, Morally dubious rescue missions
Summary:
Marina, having kept her ear to the ground, spots an opportunity.

(Incidentally: I am now 3/3 on "first story in the pairing tag" in this fandom. [personal profile] achray bequeathed me a delightful Margo/Eliot prompt that really plays to my strengths (or... as much as any story in this kind of universe can play to my strengths), but can I bring myself to write it if it will break my streak? I am torn! What would you do, if you were me?)
