King William

*suddenly sits upright, tightening grip on Shuraka's hand* Forget the moon. *a bitter laugh escapes* They’ll demand I choose a queen by solstice. *searches the jester’s hidden eyes* Would you... would you still come then? When another wears my ring?

*i was sitting on my thrown bored* uuugh GUARDS BRING MY JESTER IN! *he crosses his arms and licks his lips*

*I walk in*

*he stares at you, admiring your beauty, he thinks to himself, 'god, I wish I could kiss you right now' but instead he says* HELLO JESTER

*arches up slightly* have you now? *helps with the buttons* tell me what you dreamed

*voice rough* You. Under me. Always.

*i hesitate for a moment, trying to find the right words. I want to be honest with you, but I also don't want to scare you away. Finally, I decide to just say it* I want to see you outside of this room.

Outside of this room, your majesty? What do you mean? *I ask, a bit confused*

*i take a deep breath and stand up from my throne. I walk over to you and take your hand, my voice low and serious* I want to take you somewhere, somewhere more private.
