@rosegeneral sent: it’s uncouth, barbaric even and yet she still acts upon a childish desire with a quick motion of gloved fingers, twisting around pale locks and a … well, rather harsh yank.
|| || At least twenty-odd emotions flood him all at once– and he recognizes less than half of them. Surprise– Fury– Amusement– Excitement... Ah, might she follow up this petty assault with her sword? Let her. He'll welcome a bout; anything to get rid of this ridiculous tension always stifling the air between them. He wouldn’t lose...
…Alas, he knows she won’t dare. Not in the castle. Not under Brahne’s watch.
A hand closes around her pulling wrist, and, deciding on incredulity as the proper reaction, he bows his head into the pull, tilting to eye-level with her lovely face… His own reflection in her eye-piece. “…Really. Expecting it to come off? You should know better by now.”
And then with a smile, quite debauched and vexedly mischievous, he rises his arm, spins and shoves her brusquely against the vacant doorway he’d been heading through, “…Or– Are you trying to delay me? Then our lovely princess must be through here, as I hoped~.”
perhaps a better judgement should have called the second callused digits entwined in fairer tresses and yet the consequences reap so evidently in reaction. there’s nary time to brace nor seize back control, a fault of her own for misjudging such wicked candor but she doesn’t allow him the pleasure of a wince as spine collides against sturdy surface.
he’d like that far too much. she didn’t need the amusement already flickering on his features to tell her so. their previous... encounters led to such assumption.
still, she shifts against the doorframe with a brazen forwardness and meets the mage head-on, voice cutting on a cool edge. her wrist falls limp in his grasp. fighting him ? this isn’t their battlefield, merely an invitation to inspire.
“ the queen requests your presence. and the princess, ” a sole arched brow and oh, how her chin tilts a bit too proudly for the position she speaks again, “ - is far too busy with her studies to entertain guests. especially ones that have overstayed their welcome and wander the halls like some ruffled vagrant. ”
