Beast jokes never get old.

[wasonceabeast]

Oh. I finally understand your strange sense of humor.

It is not amusing, dear mun. I believe that you should leave Belle out of those jokes of yours...as well as leave me out as well. Contrary to your beliefs, as the Beast, I was not an "overgrown ball of fur" and Belle was not clamoring to brush me at odd times of the day. However, I do remember that one hairdresser trying to keep me still not a year after the curse was placed.

[shudders.] The bows...all...pink...

What's wrong with pink bows?

[ex_luminously373]

I wish I could say why he chose pink but the colour was very... [Oh, what word should he use?] Alluring on you. [When news had spread throughout the castle it had felt as though everyone had gathered around the doorway to catch a glimpse of the Beast in pink.]

[wasonceabeast]

[His face reddens.] Because it is so fitting to dress a boy of twelve years in pink as if he were a pet and not the Prince.

[wasonceabeast]

They are not fitting for a young prince. [Especially not one still coping after being turned to a beast only a year before.]

[beautybutfunny]

Pink bows? [Ah, curiosity has gotten the better of her once again.]

[wasonceabeast]

[Of course Belle would hear. She's adept at being in the right place at the right time. Even when that's not the right time for Adam.] At least there are no paintings of the scene.

[beautybutfunny]

None at all? What a shame. It certainly sounds like quite the sight.

[wasonceabeast]

Ha ha. You are aware that the hairdresser fancies your appearances all the more for his masterpieces?

[He's still a scheming boy at heart.]

[beautybutfunny]

Do you really think I would let a hairdresser have their way with my hair if I did not approve?

[Not forgetting her stubborn streak, now are we?]

[wasonceabeast]

He has wigs.

[He's still mischievous, remember?]

[beautybutfunny]

I have feet. And quite a few good hiding spots that I've found should they be necessary.

[wasonceabeast]

The hiding spots that I found when I was small?

[ex_luminously373]

You mustn't judge him too harshly now. I'm sure he did not mean to embarrass you. Perhaps pink was all he had at such time?

[beautybutfunny]

You had hiding places when you were small?

[wasonceabeast]

The only proper way to avoid my tutors, Cogsworth, and often Lumiere should he be sent to accomplish what Cogsworth so often failed.

[beautybutfunny]

Lessons aren't something you should hide from!

[wasonceabeast]

I admit that my attitude at that age had been...childish, but to be so young and already have the weight of responsibilities fit for a king on the shoulders of only a young prince...

[wasonceabeast]

Not likely. There is enough ribbons and fabrics stored within the storage rooms that he could dress the entire castle.

[beautybutfunny]

That sounds an awful lot like an excuse...but I suppose it is a valid one.

Of course, you could still have lessons even now.

[wasonceabeast]

Yes, I could.

[beautybutfunny]

I'll see to it that we discuss it with Cogsworth.

[wasonceabeast]

And what would make you think that Cogsworth would have the same fearsome effect upon me as he had when I was young?

[beautybutfunny]

No, but he does seem the most qualified to teach. I couldv always join you in the lessons as we'll.

[wasonceabeast]

I would not have you suffer along with me.

[ex_luminously373]

Perhaps he was searching for a 'bolder' look? [Note to self: have a word with hairdresser...]
