~Official personal guard~
*At the palace of the Northern archives*
Raven
Felix, you look like someone who just broke out of a mental asylum.
Raven
Absolutely horrendous.
Felix
Like it even matters.
Raven
I'm sure the Crown prince is not a fan of people who look like they just broke out of a mental asylum.
Felix
Ugh I couldn't care less. Now shut up.
Felix
*The guy from last time is not here!
Felix
Well, that was strange.
Raven
I suppose the queen had already sent someone to inform him of your arrival.
Felix
I'm glad. Saves me the trouble of trying to convince him that I'm not a bad person.
Felix
So do I just walk in?
Felix
Surely I won't get arrested again...
Raven
You've already entered.
Raven
No point hesitating-
Raven
I can't accompany you from here though.
Raven
I'll meet you when there's no one around!
*flies away*
Felix
*Looks like I'm on my own now.
Charollete
Ah! You must be the person the queen was talking about!
Charollete
Greetings! My name is Charollete.
Charollete
The queen had asked me to take you to her study.
Charollete
So what's your good name?
Felix
Felix... Miss Charollete.
Charollete
Oh, no need to be so polite!
Charollete
Just call me Charollete.
Charollete
In the future, if you have any trouble, you can come to me.
Charollete
You can find me in the dining hall.
Felix
Oh, Thank you Charollete.
Felix
Are you one of the maids here?
Charollete
I am the queen's personal maid.
Felix
Then... if you don't mind, can you tell me if you saw someone visit the queen yesterday morning?
Charollete
You must be talking about Lady Irene?
Charollete
She visits the queen at least once every week.
Charollete
They are like 'Two peas in a pod' I tell you!
Felix
Aw, that's sweet. *annoyed smile*
Felix
*She really did meet with the queen!
Charollete
Anyway... Here we are.
*knocks*
Charollete
Your highness! I've brought the young lad here.
*Inside the queens study*
Felix
Good morning your highness.
Felix
*Oh, there seems to be someone else-
Felix
And good morning... your...
Austin
Pleased to meet you again.
Felix
Same here... your highness, the crown prince.
Alexandria
Hah... Austin has already told me everything.
Alexandria
So in turn I had to tell him everything too-
Alexandria
*Looks at Felix*
I still haven't told you about the ball right?
Felix
No, your highness.
*I already know though...
Alexandria
This weekend, a 3-day-long ball will be held in order to find my son a bride.
Austin
I'll explain it to him later mother. Just tell him what he has to do.
Alexandria
Oh, you will? Wonderful!
Alexandria
Well then, as Austin's personal guard, you will have to stay by his side 24×7.
I already told the maids to arrange a room for you. Charollete will take you there. Just be sure to be alert at all times and report to me if you find something fishy.
Alexandria
Perhaps I should also let you know that... you should be aware of people within the palace as well.
Alexandria
The both of you may leave now.
*Outside the queen's study*
Austin
I'm not interested in finding a bride.
Austin
I said I'm not interested in finding a bride.
Felix
Oh... Why are you telling me this your highness?
*secretly happy*
Austin
Anyone in the room could easily tell that you were upset after what my mother said.
Austin
Except my... mother I guess.
Felix
*Damn, I made it that obvious?
Austin
It was almost as if... you were upset at the thought of me finding a bride?
*smirks*
Felix
...Huh?! What, no! How could I be upset at that your highness...
Austin
*Chuckles*
I'm just joking, don't get worked up.
Austin
But I do have something for you to do for me this weekend.
Felix
What is that, your highness?
Austin
Come with me. I'll tell you...
