on demeleier and searching for new games

[glistens]

Sooooo... it's... a yes? You're going to send me somewhere new. No joking.

EEEEE! THANK YOU, MUN! I am really -- Okay, kind of really excited. Because --

Ugh. Because while it's great that you're shopping around for new places? And while I'm really grateful for another chance to make friends and - and to live? I know you still want to send me to the fairy place. And I know. What the fairy place means.

But you know what? I'm just -- I'm not going to be intimidated! That's it! No more. I am done. Being frightened of you and your plotting. Totally, completely done.

Extremely done.

Super done even. That's how done I am. Super.

( Love You Most, Rapunzel ♥ ♥ ♥)

PS: DON'T DO IT

[ she nods with vigor ]

You do! I mean -- Obviously you aren't a living chess piece, though I guess it's possible for there to be living chess pieces I've never actually met or HEARD of one. But you remind me of one!

Have you ever played chess?

[cavalries]

[ A lively one this one is. ]

Yes... I have, but I do not think that I resemble a chess piece all too distinctly.

[corona]

You just seem... [ chin meet hands ] Regal. Like a rook or a knight or a queen. Your clothes too. They're really chesslike. [ that is not a word Rapunzel ]

[cavalries]

[ She tilts her head only slightly. ] You are not too far off for I am indeed a king.

[ At least once upon a time. ]

SOB I'M SORRY THIS IS SO SLOW

[corona]

Really? [ This answer she hadn't expected, and the bit of delight she gets out of it (real royalty!!!) has her straightening as her eyes widen a bit. ]

I thought kings were meant to be men.

IT'S OKAY there is no rush

[cavalries]

[ She nods a bit. ] Yes, a king is predominately male...

I had a special case and masked my being female for the throne, if that makes anything clear.

too good to me

[corona]

Hm. [ It doesn't, but she gives a thoughtful sort of nod. She's read a fair bit about politics by this point, courtesy of having friends so deeply involved, and she's smart enough to draw conclusions. ]

Was...there something going on that you had to hide your real gender?

just... just accept it

[cavalries]

Rumors of one's king being female right when they take the throne isn't an efficient way to start your reign...

As time goes by, it wouldn't have mattered my gender, but rather if I was a competent king. [ But it would have been easier to be male though. Yeah. ]

[corona]

"Wouldn't" have mattered? [ She picks up on that before everything else; she'll address the rest later. ] You mean, you didn't have the chance to rule for very long, you mean?

[cavalries]

[ She grows quiet... It still stings her heart and it was only recently did she tell herself that she must move on. ] Nevertheless... What limited time I had were of no regrets.

It seems we have derailed quite a bit.

[glistens]

Ahhh yea...ah. [ That gets a laugh out of her, one she hopes will catch. ] That's - kind of a thing with me. Derailing and...mumbling! That's me. Eheh.

I'm Rapunzel.

[cavalries]

[ Hm. Strange girl. ] I see...

It's a pleasure to meet you, Rapunzel. You may call me Saber.

[glistens]

Saber? [ She smiles: another thing she knows way too much about now! ] That's a type of sword isn't it?
