          ❛ oh? then maybe you two should be the ones dancing together, not you and me. ❜ counted steps faltered when he finally speaks, gaze that was so concentrated on their feet rose to meet those of the mage’s. brows came together almost indefinitely, exasperated in viren and harrow’s pursuit of trying to teach this warrior to dance. ( to dance properly, as a queen should — )❛ how do you even expect me to learn this? there’s too many steps. ❜ she finally breaks free of his grip, rubbing hands together and ultimately allowed shoulders to slump. her choreographies usually consisted of a spear in her hand, not a grace of a man’s hand in her own and against her waist.

       after her moment’s reprieve, sarai gives a deep, ill-composed sigh.❛ alright, let’s go again — though i won’t apologize for stepping on your feet again, you signed up for that when you asked me to dance. ❜ she takes viren’s offered hand, clearing head when a hand comes to rest cordially at her waist.❛ when you told me you were going to teach me to dance, i assumed i’d be dancing with harrow, ❜ the queen teases, basking in any fluster she might gain,❛ i bet he just doesn’t want to sacrifice his toes to my heels. ❜ which was another thing. not only did she have to dance, but she had to do so in heels — if only amaya could see her now. ❛ i still say it’d be much easier for the two of you to dance together, since you both already know how to dance. you don’t know how much i’d pay to see that. ❜

He hates waking to the sun in his eyes.

He also hates waking to immediate business, meetings and arrangements by people who only want to speak of war, endless, tiring war. There’s a moment where he contemplates simply sinking back into his blankets, huddled for warmth under the layers. How far would he get with that, really, before Viren would force him up from bed and into the great hall with the diplomats and advisors without even letting him dress properly? The thought of that happening - of showing up in his nightclothes, eyes barely open - was amusing, in itself, but ultimately not the best of ideas. Respect only goes so far, even for a king.

Instead of doing what he wants, he rolls over and lets out a groan, opening his eyes to glare at his high mage. Anger isn’t the emotion behind his eyes, but the way his eyebrows knit together may make it seem that way. Truly, what he feels is gentle amusement at the entire situation.

“If Pip wants to come along, he’ll come along.” His hair falls into place over his back as he sits up, rubbing the heels of his palms into his eyes. “The council can deal with him just as they always do.”

   “Listen, dad before I go--I don’t know if I can take the Throne.” Knowing his father’s full intent. Sure, it would be after his father would no longer rule. But, if this plan goes through. He would never be able to get rid of this lingering guilt in his chest, “Maybe ask Claudia?” 

            ❛ you can’t tell me the high mage is scared of a spear, is he? ❜ form leans into his, teasing, non-malicious. but the smile quirking her lips only proves she only wishes to see him squander... if only for the moment. ❛ i think you could stand a little close combat training in return for submitting me to torture via an eight step. ❜

💗 = Any unique traditions where your character is from that wouldn’t work or apply in the real world?

   None specifically come to mind, but there are certain traditions that require items specific to the world of Kijonaia. There are many traditions in the world, but not that I believe wouldn’t work in the real world with a slight bit of tweaking.

🎇 = Does your character possess magic? How do they feel about it even if they don’t have it?

    Eyes spare a wayward glance over her shoulder at the click of the door, the moment seeming to freeze as she looks between Viren and the mess she was currently cleaning. An awkward sort of half-laugh is caught on an exhale as she smooths out her dress and rises to face him.

    This is exactly what it looks like...

    “ There is no price I would not pay for my students, they deserve the best. ” Caslon muses, the pride is evident in her voice; they were all such bright young minds, and she relished every stride and stumble they made. Kindness ensured they remained passionate and not fall victim to frustration and spite.
