her head cocks to one side with intrigue at
the sight of CHARM oozing from the shape
of his brims, pondering whether it is genuine.
her gut indicates that it is not, though her
features soften nonetheless for the queen's
weakness is beautiful boys with charming
smiles, drawn to them like a moth to a FLAME.
or something shiny.
' ah, the clave. i should have known. they really
do demand a lot, don't they? & what do they
request of you? or me, perhaps? are you their
messenger? '
“ you get used to it. “
just like everyone else had. nevertheless
a charming grin would curve the edge of
his mouth despite the situation at hand. a
meeting with the seelie queen herself was
not exactly on his list of things to do before
he died, but the choice was not his to make.
his expression sobered quickly, but his jaw
was still set and his eyes still did not soften.
the feeling of her gaze on him was similar to
another weight on his shoulders.
“ i am not here because i want to be here. “
there. that was the truth, at least. ” the clave
has told me to. “

' & more indeed. although the decision as
to whether the fae can continue to offer you
such help is still being made. as much as i
ADORE you, i must act in the best interests
of my court, even if it means supporting
your siblings. i cannot allow personal
relations to fracture my judgement. '
and while that is true, he does have some
influence over her, for he is her KING. her
morning star. her dawn bringer. hence why
she allows the kiss to be planted upon her
with no more than a regal inclination of her
jaw.
if another had done the same, she would
demand that their head be cut off, not unlike
the queen of hearts, rather than the
affectionate tease which she soon voices.
' now, now-- you are aware that i prefer
affections to be requested beforehand. '
“———oh beautiful one, if I were
to bring you news, I’d have shared it with
you before now. even so, I’m not part of
seelie court and so I don’t owe it to tell you
of anything but you offer me your help and
more so that’s enough.”
( with that, he leaned down to place a soft
lingering kiss upon her cheek and hid his
menacing smirk in the smooth skin. he
perhaps shouldn’t have done that without
her permission but he had no patience to
deal with common courtesies and manners. )

plagued with hypocrisy considering

created to protect the futile human race
& yet you cannot protect yourselves,
much less others. tell me, how many
humans were slaughtered by demon-
kind while you were in hiding?
please, i have no time for an emotion as
petulant as jealousy.
LOVE LOVE LOVE.
an emotion valued by the fae admittedly,
though not nearly as much as by you.
you see it as an asset, i see it as a flaw.
i suppose we will have to agree to
disagree, hm?
is that a THREAT? very unwise to make
them when they are so very empty. '
❝ You fail to see many things, therefore your words will fail
to wound me, too. —— Really, you call yourself a Queen,
but you’ve become highly associated with the word failure.
Hm, I should have guessed. You love leaving your critiques
on Clary. Is that jealously? An ugly weakness, much worse
than my own case of falling in love. For one I wouldn’t ever
go back from it. I love Clary, and in loving her I’ve changed
for the better.
You can’t possibly understand.
We wouldn’t take you in. Well, we might. We’d probably
make a nice cell for you in utter captivity. Then watch you
rot for the remainder —— I hear Faeries live a very long life. ❞
