I was never aware that people had sex before I read about it in a biology textbook. [They did a really good job sheltering her away in her castle, making sure she had little to no access to information. It didn't help that her maids had assured her that her future husband would be the one to take care of everything. She doesn't resent them for it and would never be able to ask them anymore what their reasoning had been for keeping it from her, but it's frustrating not to know.] I apologize for assuming and thank you for explaining it to me.

[It doesn't help that Angelo always seems to be raring to go and she's using him as a reference point.]

So it is also like falling in love, then. [Another thing that she had difficulty understanding.] Roxas told me once that it isn't just one thing sometimes, but many things that piled one on top of the other and before you knew it, even if you may not exactly have wanted to, that person will be in your thoughts. They will be special to you. Is it like that?

[His initial reaction tells her that there definitely is something like that. But then he says that it isn't and she's caught between trusting him and quietly, calmly interrogating him.

In the end, she chooses to let it slide (for now) and asking him about what he means at a later date.]


Yes. What I meant was that they are very alike and no, I did not receive any sex ed. I was told when I learned of my engagement that all I needed to do was rely on my husband. That there was no need for me to know.

[Though she obviously disagrees.]

I do not think it is a princess thing. I have met others before and I feel as if they know much more than I do.

I have met him. He came to stay with me at the castle. [Though she hadn't liked him a lot on their first meeting. He smiled at her like he didn't even see her, like what she thought didn't matter. So she had barged into his room that same night and made him talk maps to her until he showed her that he was actually very short-tempered and stone-faced which was infinitely more interesting to her than the perfect prince he had been pretending to be.]

At the time, I had not thought it unfair. Though it had not really been about whether or not Eugene was someone that I wanted to "screw for the rest of my life". [She chuckles just a little bit to herself as she says it, her tone quietly growing soft and determined:]

I had wanted to be of use and to protect Zerestria. Our marriage would have created an alliance between our countries and I had thought that was the only option if I wished to stop the wars at our borders. [People died in those and the thought that she could save just one person...that would have been enough. That's why she learns so voraciously, reads so much and almost lived at the library sometimes, searching for just one more practical thing she could learn, one more bit of knowledge that she could make her own and use in helping to save lives.]

It was a choice I would have been willing to make. But you know, Leon...I have learned there are so many other ways. Intimidation, superior technology, tactics, diplomacy. If I could only keep that knowledge, I would not marry him now. I would ask him to help me instead.

I am not married to him. Our ceremony had not even taken place by the time I was taken from Rainesburg and sent to Holly Heights. And then I was sent here.

[And her world was apparently gone??]

I do not know what it is like for other princesses and perhaps I am over-complicating things. I have been told before by Eugene that it would have been much better for me if only I were a fool.

[But she doesn't intend to be some kind of ornamental princess.]

[But she hasn't even told him about her friend Robert, the paranoid assassin yet.]

How so?

[As far as she was aware, dicks didn't make sounds??]

It is the place I was in before I was brought here. I had been taken from my own home, Rainesburg, and then brought to another world. That was Holly Heights.

It does seem like that sometimes. But at the same time, I am quite grateful that I was taken from Rainesburg, actually. I have met many wonderful people and have been able to experience things I never would have been able to otherwise.

[This is a win in her books.]

And I could not say, exactly, about Eugene. But I do not believe he meant it quite like that. [She's pretty sure if he wanted to say that women should just never think for themselves, he probably would have actually said it.]

But I do not think there is such a thing as being too nice. Sincerity begets sincerity, that is what I have always believed. It is like how we are speaking now, is it not? You are listening and you are taking me seriously, helping me just as you said you would. I like it when it is like that.
protectthecastle: (happy | baths are great)

You are. And I am glad that you are here, Leon. Although I do not quite agree that not everyone is a good person. Scared and doubting and occasionally unthinking, perhaps. But there is good if you look for it.
