laurent of vere ( captive prince. )

[kryo]

a. From behind it’s almost impossible for you to tell which one’s the horse and which one’s the man. Almost, because the horse is decidedly better groomed.
b. I’m not coming out. You told me you knew how to braid hair and now I look like a bird has nested in it. I should have known, with hands like that.
c. I have learned three new magic tricks and several vital places to stab, I think that’s a day well spent, don’t you?
d. Oh, I’m not blaming you for questioning my choices. But in my defence I was left unsupervised.

ota | misfires + crosscanon welcome / choose your own | not quite voicetesting, more like reviewing canon after half a decade. finished book one, read a lot of fanfic, will do book two today. please ignore the lack of icons, i don’t know who i want to use anymore. or better yet if you have ideas, let me know! also it’s unlikely to come up, but laurent has some trigger warnings that some people might be sensitive to.

The muzzle henceforth.

!!!!

[kryo]

And deny you the edge of my teeth? Have we grown so estranged?

[availed]

You used to pretend civility.

[kryo]

Did I?

Did you think me civil in the beginning? Don't lie. You know I can tell when you do.

[availed]

I don't lie to you.

[kryo]

I didn't even spill anyone's blood this time. Isn't that civil?

[availed]

Was it?

[kryo]

There wasn't a single tear shed. I'm a little disappointed.

[availed]

That is neither a challenge nor an invitation.

[kryo]

A problem was dealt with, Damen, and nobody died. I thought you'd be rewarding me for my ingenuity, but perhaps maybe you're disappointed. You do like a fight with physicality.

[availed]

And you don't like to lose.

[kryo]

I would have won regardless.

[availed]

You eviscerated him with your tongue. At least, next time, use your weapon.

[kryo]

Are you jealous? I can show you the pointed edge of my tongue too, if you want.

[availed]

Don't involve me in your carnage.

[kryo]

Afraid you won't be able to temper me?

[availed]

Afraid you won't heed counsel.

[kryo]

Is it wise counsel?

[availed]

Has it often failed you?

[kryo]

Tell me what you would have suggested otherwise.

[availed]

Wine and a smile.

[kryo]

...

I should have stabbed him.

[availed]

All hail the king's peace.

[kryo]

Where's your smile? Certainly you have not been showing it to me.
