Homeless forever

[sir_rusty]

Madam, do you really think it's appropriate to pick up a new muse now? You have school to tend to and I can't be wasting time fooling around. I need to get back to the Princess! Who knows what that scoundrel will do the second that I'm not there!

Well-

[Hrm, now that he thought about it, she did handle herself well in the Evil Forest. He was proud of her for that.]

Yes, but still, she shouldn't be on her own. I would never be able to live with myself if something were to happen to her!

At least Master Vivi is there too...

[ahandfulofrocks]

[No combat training in Alexandria for royalty?]

Master Vivi?

[sir_rusty]

[No, what kind of place do you think Alexandria is?]

A friend, he got dragged into all of this too. The only one I can trust among the lot of them.

[All two of them.]

[ahandfulofrocks]

[CLEARLY NOT AT ALL LIBERAL]

Well, perhaps having a great deal of faith in him now would ease your mind.

[sir_rusty]

[WHATEVER, if the princess could defend herself do you know how many people would be out of jobs?]

Hmm that's true... It does the princess no good for me to waste my time here worrying.

[A salute!]

Thank you, Sir Mamoru!

[ahandfulofrocks]

[BUT THE PLUTO KNIGHTS ARE INCOMPETENT SO IT MIGHT BE A GOOD THING???

He'd understand Beatrix and her soldiers a bit better because crazy awesome ladies are a thing in his life. Lives.]

Whoa, whoa, no need to salute, I'm not...I'm not a nobleman of Alexandria or anything.

I'm sorry, I didn't ask your name. Might I be so bold, Captain?

[sir_rusty]

Yes, but you're still someone worthy of my respect.

[He nodded.]

Captain Adelbert Steiner, Sir.

[ahandfulofrocks]

[There's a warm smile, one that makes him look quite a bit older than the high schooler he currently is.]

You remind me a bit of a soldier I knew back home, Captain Steiner. Very dedicated to the job, extremely loyal. A wonderful man.

[sir_rusty]

I am truly honored by your words.

Your kingdom must be lucky to have you. Are you a soldier too?

[A bit young, but not unheard of, in his world.]

[ahandfulofrocks]

Ah-...no, I'm not a soldier.

Yet.

I was, but I'm. It's complicated. I recently found out that I was...I am a prince.

[He doesn't seem to understand much in the way of it all just yet.]

[sir_rusty]

You're not a soldier yet... but you were once?

[Steiner isn't following you there.]

A prince!

[Oh no, at least he hasn't bowed yet.]

It's an honor, Sir.

[ahandfulofrocks]

[NO NO BOWING DON'T

DON'T
EVEN
THINK
OF
IT]

A-Ah...it's complicated. The idea of...well, I was reborn, as long as my princess and the future queen. And please, there's no need for formalities.

[sir_rusty]

[BUT

IT'S SO TEMPTING.]

Oh I see. [No he doesn't.] Your world sounds strange to me.

[ahandfulofrocks]

As...as does yours. The knights I know of have armor that is rather different than yours, Captain Steiner.

[Yours is...kind of really old looking ngl]

[sir_rusty]

[It's better than a miniskirt!]

Is that so? There are many different styles of armor in my world, but I feel like this is the most reliable.

[ahandfulofrocks]

[On Rusty it is, yup.]

Chain mail, isn't it?

[sir_rusty]

[Stop temping me to draw him in a Sailor moon costume.]

Indeed! Flexible, but provides excellent defense, I don't go out without it!

[ahandfulofrocks]

[...had no idea I was doing that, but.../stops tempting (not really)? :3]

It does look quite sturdy. Quite tailored, too, you have it made to fit you perfectly?
