no matter what

Would you ever try? 

I guess so.

Whoever keeps sneaking in to do these mysterious paintings when I’m not there it actually really talented. I’m super impressed. Was it you?

Nope, not me. I’ve never really done art.

Mhm, do you want me to leave you alone now?

You don’t have to.

Now I run away and hide and you try and find me. 

Okay, got it.

Me? Oh, yeah. I’m fine. Are you okay?

Good, good. Yeah, I’m fine.

Knight it is then!

Alright it’s settled, what do we do now?

Oh, shit, sorry– Did you need something?

No that was all me, are you okay?

M’kay, well if you ever need to talk you can come find me.

Got it, thanks.

It doesn’t matter to me. Which one do you feel more like. 

Let’s go with the knight then.

As long as you want to be the knight. You could be the prince if you wanted. 

I’ll be either one, which one do you like more littleun?

Good. Using my imagination, got it. 

So I’m the knight and you’re the villain? 

Alright, well if you think of someone I wanna know. We’ll just pretend battle, okay?

I’ll be sure to tell you first. Yeah, just pretend.

Like who? Who in the house? You don’t have to be careful, I’m tough. 

I don’t know littleun’. You are very tough, but I don’t want to actually get hurt.

Who do you think would look good in a dress? Yeah–if you’re the knight then I’m the villian so you have to fight me. 

Someone who maybe isn’t as tall as me, or has smaller shoulders. Okay, that makes sense. I’ll be careful though.

Why not? Okay–you’re going to have to fight me though. 

I dunno, I feel like some guys would look better in dresses than others. Fight you?

You know boys can wear dresses, it’s okay. But if you want the shield you can have it. What about the helmet?

I know they can, but I don’t think it would look very good on me. The helmet will work too, I’ll wear the helmet.
