5th Royal Decree

[solarhussyalert]

Action 747 Partridge Drive

[Lym headed out in the morning, not wanting anything to do with school, and looking at a box with her name on it. Poking it.]

Ok, I got the sun rune, what horrible thing is in you today?

Action Downtown - Bakery

[School is for chumps, chumps who aren't dressed like the Queen of Felenas. Chumps who aren't going to get cookies. She doesn't quite understand the money thing but she's headed for the bakery for something to eat. Eventually she'll get there and peer around.]

Hey! Is this the place where the chef makes cookies?

Phone

[Ok, she's holding it upside down so she's kind of hard to hear]

Hey! Does anyone know anything to do here other than that school thing? Its been kind of really boring here.

I'm kind of new to the whole thing. Things back home were a mess, that's why being here is kind of bad.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

I... I'm sorry, Lym. I know exactly how you feel.

[And judging from the look on his face, he does indeed]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Eh? Are you nobility too?

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Well... not quite nobility.

I'm the Dragonmaster - the chosen protector of the Goddess. And I was brought here before I could rescue her.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

What's a Goddess like? I've only met the sun rune and its kind of pushy and obnoxious.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

[Aww, look! He's blushing!]

Well... the one I know is incredibly kind. She cares about people like no one I've ever met. And she has the most beautiful voice - if you hear her sing just once, it stays with you forever.

[Lineface, total lineface]

So.... What you are saying is... You are in love with her, huh?

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

[He can't help but laugh]

Is it that obvious?

She has a stricter side too, though. She's the one that keeps me responsible and on the right track. ... most of the time.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Wait, you were trying to hide it?

[Boggle]

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

It's not that I try to hide it! I just don't even think about it. It's just... well, it just is.

[He blushes harder and looks up at the ceiling]

I don't really explain it well, huh.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I dunno, Goddesses don't really walk the Earth where I am so, I can't say much but um, isn't that kind of well, out of reach?

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's not common in my home either! She's the only one. But well... she's lived with me for the last fifteen years, so I don't think that's very out of reach.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

So is this a literal Goddess, or are you being overly mushy and figurative?

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

She's an actual goddess!

We... we actually didn't know about that until a little while ago.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

[Yeah Alex, you're just getting the look of a 12 year old who is considering calling bullshit on you]

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

It's true! I swear!

[As if Alex even knows how to lie well]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Well, then I hope for your sake that no one wakes her up to what Goddesses do, cause power corrupts.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

... she was corrupted.

['Sad' doesn't even come close. He looks absolutely crushed]

I was about to save her. We were so close - I was a staircase away! I could see her!

And then... I was here.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I... Um... I know that.... Well, Dad could sometimes reach mom before... Well... By reminding her of stuff that she liked before the rune... Uh...

I'm sorry.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

It... it's okay.

I know we'll find a way out somehow. And when I get back, then I can finish what I started.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I hope it ends different for you than mom and dad.

[She nods a bit sadly]

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Lym.

I'm sorry that I reminded you of something painful.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

They guy who caused it is dead. Brother killed him. I just kind of wish I was the one who could have.

[goddesschosen.livejournal.com]

If it's any consolation, I killed the person who kidnapped and turned Luna. I'm still not sure how much better I feel for it.

[After all, what's it worth when he has the revenge, but not her?]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Technically the guy who killed mom... He's still out there. He helped brother overthrow the mess but... I dunno.
