for the fraction of a moment, all wariness was lost, replaced by a large helping of AMUSEMENT toward this boy, whose enthusiasm was enough to rival her own sister’s. & she wasn’t sure how she was supposed to answer such a rapid fire of questions.
❝ ——— well, sir, i A M the queen ; and though it is very much flattering that you have come by to either affirm or deny the rumor of my abilities, i still do not understand the need to sneak in, as opposed to entering via the front door like any regular person. ❞
❝ You’re the queen?? Wow, that’s amazing ! ❞
An enthusiastic smile greeted the queen as the boy in green bounced up and down. It was such a rush. The boy didn’t even have he decency to look embarrassed. But such was Peter.
The curiosity that ate him alive ever since he heard about the queen who had ice powers were about to be fed and he was as excited as ever.
❝ Can you tell me about your powers? Gee, this is so cool. Well, as you can probably tell, I’m not the most normal kid out there. ❞
❝ it’s hard sneakin’ in a palace. I heard the queen has powers, though. Isn’t that just way cool ? ❞
it’s a rather jolting realization, the fact that a S T R A N G E R has snuck into her palace. perhaps, and the likelihood is very favorable, that he is not the only one who is tired.
❝ with all due respect, you have ten seconds to explain yourself and your motives ——— ——— before i call the guards. ❞
A quirk of his eyebrow indicated his unmasked confusion towards the lady’s words but then understanding dawned to him.
❝ Oh ! You live here, right ? Don’t worry. I just want to see if all those rumors are true. I’ve never met anyone with ice powers. Isn’t it cool? I wish I had ice powers, hey, do you know the queen ? D'you think she’d want to meet me ? of course a queen is often busy… ❞
