Part Eight
Yeah! So! They've finally gotten past that one night... I swear... that took soooo long... I don't think we've ever had a scene that long after that... because... we now use scene changes... OH! And having somewhat of a plot now helps, too...
Also... Don't mind Conrad too much... Because... yeah, that's totally my fault. Ha ha! I have fun with him... Er... well, we have fun with all the characters... But yeah, just.... throwing that out there... and I wasn't too sure what to do with Greta at first... but after a while I think we've both been able to really get into the characters more... Or maybe that's just me... Because Mi-chan actually knows what she's doing... so... yeah... XP

Covering the Bases
Part Eight - Testing the Strike Zone
Wolfram - *follows by Yuuri's side, a little more comfortable now, though still worried about what everyone's reactions will be* "So... are you really going to get me a ring?"
Yuuri - *grins down at him* "If that's what you want." *blinks, glancing lightly over his shoulder in reaction to a muffled, high pitched gasp of the first maid they passed/quickly looks down to make sure he had his pants on*
Wolfram - *blushes again as he spots the maid, but forces himself to ignore her, even as her gasp turns into a fit of giggles* "I think I'd like one. The idea of it is sort of romantic."
Yuuri - *frowns lightly as they pass a group of guards who all but stop, mouths open to gawk at them/quickly getting self-conscious, even though he doesn't know what he should be self-conscious about/.... glances down to make sure Wolfram had his pants on* "Uh huh..." *shakes his head at the bad response to the blond and turns to smile at him* "I will then. You can come with me to pick one out, if you'd like."
Wolfram - *looks at him curiously, unconsciously squeezing his hand tighter as he tries not to gawk back at the gawking guards, his face still flushed a light pink* "Really?"
Yuuri - *nods/honest* "Yeah! If you're going to be wearing it, then you should have a say in it." *turns to frown even more as they pass a small huddle of maids, one even going so far as to dropping the basket of laundry she had in surprise/mumbles* "This is ridiculous..."
Wolfram - *quickly grows a little uncomfortable with all of the extra attention/has no idea what they could all possibly be so surprised about/he and Yuuri were only holding hands, not making out in the hallway/hears Yuuri's mumble and mumbles back to him:* "What is their problem?"
Yuuri - *shakes his head/mumbles back as he tries to ignore the sudden outburst of excited whispers* "I have no idea..."
Wolfram - *looks up at him/quietly* "Is there something on my face?"
Yuuri - *turns to frown at him/teasing, but trying to look serious* "Well..."
Wolfram - *stops in the middle of the hallway* "What?"
Yuuri - *forces back the grin on his face* "Well... " *slowly reaches up with his free hand/tapping Wolfram's nose lightly* "I see a nose... two bright, gorgeous eyes.... and a pair of lips that look awful lonely at the moment... But everything looks perfect.... They're probably just jealous." *ends up cracking a grin only halfway through*
Wolfram - *flushes brightly, quickly looking away/scoffs* "Lonely? I don't know what would make you think that."
Yuuri - *grins down at him* "Oh?" *gently moves his hand under the blond's chin to turn his face back towards him/leaning down to hold his lips just a bit away from Wolfram's* "You don't think they're lonely?"
Wolfram - *a little surprised/his eyes drift down to stare at Yuuri's mouth/gulps/whispers* "You shouldn't do this sort of thing where people can see you. It's inappropriate." *says it, but really doesn't care at the moment*
Yuuri - *pouts a little* "Really? All right then... sorry... It won't happen again." *starts to pull away from him*
Wolfram - *his mouth falls open in shock/slightly disappointed, but he quickly straightens and looks away again, wishing all of the maids would just disappear and stop staring at them so intently*
Yuuri - *grins/quickly leans down to kiss his cheek/straightening back up to stare in confusion in the direction of a few delighted squeals/still not getting it* "A-anyway..." *a bit flustered that he doesn't know what's going on* "W-we should probably keep going...." *tugs lightly on the blond's hand*
Wolfram - *nods and follows him/falls silent, trying to convince himself that he is not upset that Yuuri only kissed his cheek/he glares darkly at a few of the maids, slightly pleased when one or two of them scamper off*
Yuuri - *slightly annoyed by the time they reach the dinning room, still not understanding why everyone was acting so weird/completely forgot about how he was probably in deep trouble with Gwendal for bailing on him the night before/glances down to smile at Wolfram/softly* "You ready?"
Wolfram - *looks back up at him, still a little annoyed that he didn't get a very good kiss/pouts unintentionally* "I suppose so."
Yuuri - *grins down at him, wondering if he was right about why the blond was being so pouty/leans down again to hold his mouth just a little ways away from the blond* "You sure?"
Wolfram - *frowns/grips tightly to his jacket and forcefully pulls him closer/a little louder than he intended to* "Just shut up and kiss me, you wimp!"
Yuuri - *very amused/leans down to press his lips against Wolfram's, wrapping his arm around the boy's back*
Wolfram - *doesn't hesitate for even a moment and quickly deepens the kiss/shuts his eyes and sighs in pleasure, pressing tightly against him as he locks his arms around his neck*
Yuuri - *closes his eyes as well, pulling the blond even closer and just barely off the ground*
Wolfram - *struggles with himself not to just jump onto him and cling*
Conrart - *had just turned the corner on his way to breakfast, only to be met with a very... well... it wasn't something he had expected to see/stops to watch for a moment, eyebrow raised, then coughs lightly*
Wolfram - *gasps and pulls away/his face flushes bright red again as he looks around Yuuri to stare at his second brother, absolutely humiliated* "I..."
Yuuri - *blinks down at Wolfram/confused/turns to glance over his shoulder at Conrad/still too stupid to know what was going on* "Morning!"
Conrart - *eyebrow still raised* "Morning."
Wolfram - "I..."
Yuuri - *blinks down at the blond/worried* "Are you okay?"
Wolfram - "Uhh..." *belatedly* "G-g-good m-morning."
Conrart - *realizing his embarrassment/small signature smile* "Good morning."
Wolfram - *cringes at his smile/had been internally hoping that he really hadn't seen anything, but at that look all his hopes are immediately dashed/whispers to himself under his breath:* "If the ground could just swallow me up right now, I would be forever grateful."
Yuuri - *frowns/really worried/lifts his hand to brush the blond's bangs out of his eyes* "Wolf...? Are you okay??"
Conrart - *waiting/patient/small smile/etc*
Wolfram - *groans/really, really uncomfortable with the situation, more so by the fact that Conrart is still smiling at them* "No..." *thinks to himself 'Go away, go away, go away.'*
Yuuri - *frowns at him still/even more worried* "What's wrong?"
Conrart - *waiting/patien-- yeah...*
Wolfram - "I..." *doesn't know what to say/saying 'I'm embarrassed that we were caught making out by one of my older brothers' just doesn't seem all that... simple at the moment, especially with said older brother still there* "Can... can we just go eat?" *though he really doesn't have much of an appetite anymore*
Yuuri - *frowns worriedly/doesn't want to press him if he doesn't want to talk about it* "Yeah, sure." *moves to push the door open for the blond, stepping in after him*
Conrart - *follows/blahblah*
Wolfram - *walks blindly into the dining room, not really paying attention to anything*
Murata - *looks up from his place at the table, grinning widely* "Well, hello there, Shibuya."
Yuuri - *still frowning/looks up at his Earth friend, unable to stop from at least smiling a little back* "Hello." *follows Wolfram around the table*
Greta - *jumps up from her seat to fling herself at Wolfram/huge smile* "Good morning!"
Wolfram - *startled, stumbles back a little, but manages to easily regain his balance* "G-good morning, Greta."
Gwendal - *glares darkly, but says nothing*
Greta - *smiles happily up at Yuuri, but still clinging to Wolfram* "Good morning!" *starts to pull Wolfram to his seat beside her*
Yuuri - *winces at Gwendal's glare/chokes as he tries to respond to Greta* "M-morning!"
Wolfram - *sits down quietly, refusing to look at anyone*
Celi - *giggles from her seat*
Gunter - *shifts uncomfortably*
Murata - *smirks/amused*
Conrart - *being himself*
Yuuri - *coughs/still a bit self conscious from earlier/takes his place at the table*
Greta - *sitting down back in her seat/happy like always*
Murata - *stares at Yuuri, his chin resting against the palm of his hand with his elbow against the table* "So... I heard there was a bit of an incident in the bath last night..." *smirks mischievously*
Gwendal - *his left eye twitches*
Wolfram - *looks as if he's going to be sick*
Yuuri - *laughs nervously/scratches his cheek with one finger* "O-oh... You heard about that?"
Conrart - *smiles/...*
Murata - "Now, I'm curious. Exactly how far did the two of you get? First base? Second? I doubt you got all the way to third, but with you it's hard to tell..."
Yuuri - *jaw drop/shrinks down a bit/small squeak* "W-what?"
Murata - "What? You did nothing, then?" *shakes his head in mock disappointment* "I thought I taught you better than that, Shibuya."
Wolfram - *covers his face with his hands*
Yuuri - *glances nervously over at Wolfram/still extremely worried/turns back to gawk at Murata* "N-now... I.... what I mean... I don't think.... what??"
Murata - *smirks at the both of them some more* "The both of you are still so uptight. You need to get laid."
Wolfram - *shouts* "Will you SHUT UP?!?!?!"
Gwendal - *twitches again*
Gunter - *looks mortified, his face completely white*
Greta - *swinging her feet under the table/not fazed*
Conrart - *blah*
Yuuri - *panicking slightly* "H-hold on... What.... what exactly did you.... I don't...."
Murata - *raises an eyebrow* "What do I mean??" *snickers lightly* "If you have to ask a question like that, then it's obvious you didn't get anything out of him last night."
Yuuri - *getting frustrated/not all that thrilled about dragging Wolfram along in this/sputters* "T-that's none of your business! And what do you care?" *really flustered now*
Murata - "Oh, I care, my friend. Only when you've finally done it can you truly join the ranks of we men."
Celi - *continues to giggle*
Yuuri - *mouths wordlessly at him/completely at a loss of what to do or say*
Conrart - *go away!*
Gwendal - *grumbles lowly* "Must we continue this conversation over breakfast?"
Yuuri - *nods... then pauses and shakes his head/trying to agree with Gwendal only... not really knowing how*
Celi - *smiles sweetly* "So when can I expect my second grandchild?"
Wolfram - *sputters, and nearly faints*
Yuuri - *more panic/stands up and moves to see if Wolfram is okay/still has no idea what to say to the sudden attack of attention/wasn't expecting everyone to know about anything*
Greta - *seemingly excited about the idea of a little brother or sister*
Gunter - *suddenly stands from his chair, as melodramatic as always* "Oh, it's absolutely horrible!!" *turns to give Wolfram a sharp look* "This is exactly why it's unacceptable for you to be sleeping in His Majesty's room!!!" *turns to Gwendal* "Gwendal, you must do something. His Majesty's purity will be tarnished forever!!!"
Gwendal - *ignores him and focuses on his food, glaring down at his toast*
Yuuri - *frowns/getting mad that the finger keeps getting pointed at Wolfram* "Hey! Nothing happened! Wolfram is fine staying in my room. I want him there.
Conrart - *smiles* "Gunter, I think you're over reacting to this."
Gunter - "Overreacting?!?! How could I possibly be overreacting?!?!" *is, indeed, overreacting*
Celi - *still smiling* "I think it's perfectly fine for them to be in the same room together." *clasps her hands together and sighs wistfully* "Ahh, young love! It's so adorable!" *squeals*
Yuuri - *fans Wolfram with his hand/trying to ignore everyone*
Conrart - *still smiling, of course* "Well... Yuuri said nothing happened. We should probably believe him, don't you think?"
Greta - *leaning over to talk to Celi* "I can help with the baby, can't I??" *really excited now*
Celi - "Why, of course, dear. I'm sure Wolfie will need all the help he can get. Oh, I'm so excited!!! It's been so long since I last held a baby in my arms!!!"
Wolfram - *clenches his teeth together and balls in hands into fists*
Yuuri - *still extremely worried/fanning* "Wolf...?"
Greta - "I can help decorate the room too, right??" *huge smile*
Celi - "That's a wonderful idea! We'll have to start looking through decorations right away, so it'll all be set up for when the baby comes!"
Murata - *smirks wickedly* "If there will even be a baby..."
Yuuri - *clenches his teeth/mutters under his breath 'Not yet...'*
Murata - *raises an eyebrow again* "What was that, Shibuya?"
Yuuri - *flashes a glare* "I said you won't need to expect any baby until Wolfram and I are married this spring."
Greta - *squeals anyway*
Celi - *gasp, giggles, then squeals loudly*
Gwendal - *his left eye twitches again, and an extremely dangerous look develops on his face/he acquires three new wrinkles*
Yuuri - *blinks stupidly at their excitement*
Gunter - *startled by the sudden proclamation/his little fanboy heart is crushed* "That's it!!! His Majesty and Wolfram must be placed into separate rooms tonight!!!"
Murata - "I hardly think putting them in separate rooms will keep them off of one another..."
Yuuri - *jaw drop again/sputters* "N-now wait a minute!!! What the... what?!"
Gwendal - *looks as if he's going to kill someone*
Wolfram - *looks as if he's going to help him*
Conrart - *shakes his head/but still smiling*
Greta - *back to the topic of babies with Celi* "We can make everything pink, right? Even if it's a boy?"
Celi - "Why, of course we can, dear! Wolfie's room was covered in pink, and look how he turned out!!"
Murata - *snickers*
Gunter - "Is no one concerned about this?!?! At all?!?!"
Conrart - "Calm down, Gunter." *smile*
Yuuri - *panic* "Wolf...? Are you okay? Do you need to leave the room?" *shoots a glare at Murata for joking like he had been*
Gunter - "Calm down? Calm down?! How do you expect me to calm down?! This is a horrible omen!!!"
Wolfram - *growls lowly*
Celi - "Oh, now you're just being silly, Gunter..."
Yuuri - "Everybody.... SHUT UP!" *really frustrated and confused* "What the heck is going on here?!"
Gwendal - *grips his hand tightly around his spork, raising his eyes to glare sharply at Yuuri, but still says nothing/already devising ways n which to make his life hell once they get into the office*
Murata - *laughs at Yuuri* "Touchy~. Someone needs to go back to their room and spend a few more hours of quality time with their fiancé."
Yuuri - *sputters again/can't believe what's going on/and definitely caught the glare Gwendal sent him/leans down to see Wolfram's face* "Wolf...???"
Wolfram - *is shaking with rage/finally snaps completely and stands up, slamming his palms onto the table top and effectively gaining everyone's attention* "KNOCK IT OFF!!!" *turns his glare to focus on Celi* "Mother, begin planning the wedding immediately!! I want to have the ceremony out in the gardens, so you had better find some way to prevent it from raining, or I will be pissed!!!" *turns to Gunter next* "And you!!! Start sending out invitations!!! I want every aristocrat, nobleman, and all of our allies notified, and you make sure they all attend!!!" *then turns to Greta, and he pauses to smile softly at her* "Greta, I give you permission to use as much pink as you want." *next, to his second brother, back to glaring harshly* "Conrart, stop smiling like that!!" *now to his oldest brother* "Gwendal... please, don't kill my fiancé." *and, finally, to Murata* "As for you!!" *seething* "It's none of your business what Yuuri and I do, but since you're so curious..." *turns to Yuuri and slides a hand into his hair, grabbing the back of his head and forcing him down into a passionate kiss*
Yuuri - *stares in somewhat frightened shock for the duration of the rant/then is even more startled as Wolfram suddenly grabs him to kiss him/not knowing if he should be extremely embarrassed or do what he really wanted - which was to kiss him back/ended up kissing him back just for the relief of him being okay... well... as okay as he could.../wraps his arms around the blond, pulling him closer/eyes closed*
Greta - *veryveryvery loud squeal*
Gwendal - *his eyes actually widen, and he drops his spork/oh, yes, he was going to kill Yuuri later, and he was going to enjoy every minute of it*
Celi - *squeals as well, hardly able to contain herself*
Gunter - *collapses back into his seat*
Murata - *watches them, fascinated*
Wolfram - *continues to kiss Yuuri deeply, with no regard at all to the other people in the room*
Conrart - *smiles*
Yuuri - *lets the blond kiss him, though he knew his face was now very red/presses back into him - mostly for fear that Gwendal really would kill him and he wouldn't have a chance to kiss him again*
Wolfram - *finally pulls away, breathless and red in the face from a mixture of anger and embarrassment/turns back to glare at everyone seated around the table* "Now, everyone SHUT UP, and finish your breakfast!!!" *returns to his seat and scowls down at the table*
Murata - *smirking still* "Ah, I see. First base. Unless there's some light touching going on that I have not been made aware of..."
Yuuri - *blinks/breathless as well/stumbles to get back in his seat/doesn't really know what to say/trying to think of ways to get Gwendal to not actually kill him*
Greta - *fangirling... a lot/hardly able to stay in her seat*
Celi - *continues to squeal, and puts a hand on poor Greta's shoulder to keep her seated*
Gunter - *near tears*
Conrart - *smiling and thinking 'About time'*
Wolfram - *still glaring at the table, as if it were somehow at fault, his previous actions beginning to catch up with him/his face is now completely red once more and he would really like to leave and hide away in his and Yuuri's room for the remainder of winter*
Yuuri - *still somewhat speechless/not really looking at anything in particular/stutters* "W-well... There you go... We're getting married this spring..."
Celi - *gushes* "Oh, I just love weddings!! Wolfie, dear, we'll have to get you fitted for a new outfit!! And, Greta, we'll have to see about getting you a new ball gown. Oh, this is so exciting!!!!" *fans herself*
Gwendal - *continues to twitch and plot ways in which to assassinate the king without making it look like an actual murder*
Anissina - *bursts through the doors/smile wide on her face* "Gwendal! There you are!"
Gwendal - *his face immediately loses all color/stands from his seat quickly, but stops momentarily in his rushed escape to growl at Yuuri and Wolfram* "I want to see the both of you in the office when you're finished eating. Do not make me wait." *if he were any less of a man, he would have been running, but he settles for walking stiffly passed Anissina instead, hoping his apparent fowl mood will be enough to keep the crazy woman away from him*
Yuuri - *sighs in relief/very VERY thankful for Anissina right now*
Anissina - *frowns at the taller man* "Where do you think you're going? I've been looking all over for you!" *gets excited* "I just finished this great invention! I just need a little help trying it out for the first time!"
Gwendal - *gruffly/about at his limit* "Leave me alone!" *escapes from the dining room and begins to walk swiftly down the hallway, intent on finding the perfect hiding space, ignorant of the guards staring after him with looks on their faces that make them seem as if they're about to crap their pants*
Wolfram - *looks positively petrified*
Anissina - *follows after him* "You have to listen to this! It's really amazing! I was doing some research on the flight of Bearbees and discovered the perfect way to float exactly twenty feet off the ground. But to get to that point you need to jump off of something at least one hundred feet, so I need you to come and help me! I can't do it by myself, you know! *continues to rant*
Conrart - *watches them leave, then smiles at Yuuri and Wolfram* "I'm really happy for the both of you." *smilesmile*
Greta - *giggles/going through baby names and the type of dress she wants in her head*
Yuuri - *sinks down in his seat, but not before grabbing a piece of toast to gnaw on/last meal, you know*
Wolfram - *still very, very red, and very, very worried that he and Yuuri won't even make it to their wedding day*
Celi - *continues to giggle and make plans*
Gunter - *sits still as a statue, silently lamenting his lost opportunity with His Majesty*
Gwendal - *his angered and tortured shouts can be heard in the distance*
Murata - *is silent for a moment, then:* "So... has there been any touching that I should know about, because that would put you at second base."
Yuuri - *snaps* "MURATA!!!!"
Murata - "Yes? No? Maybe so? Come on, Shibuya, I need details. How else am I supposed to know what to tell your mother?"
Yuuri - *chokes on his toast/goes white/can't talk/doesn't want to/why would he tell his MOTHER?!*
Wolfram - *says nothing more to anyone and doesn't bother to eat a thing/has no more appetite*
Murata - *grins*
Conrart - *light chuckle* "Leave them alone. They obviously don't want to talk about it."
Greta - *squeal*
Wolfram - *dies inside, especially when he realizes he's actually thankful for Conrart's input*
Murata - "Come on. You can't blame me for being interested."
Yuuri - *really, really flustered and frustrated* "Murata!!! Please!" *shoves whatever's on his plate in his mouth, not really caring what it was as long as it distracted him*
Murata - "But you're my friend, Shibuya." *inwardly cackling/goading him on even more because, really, this is just too amusing* “Friends share sex tales. You remember that time I told you about the girl from Yokohama, don't you? And then the one who transferred in from Tokyo?"
Wolfram - "You WHAT with him?!" *glares at Yuuri, his face creating a new color of red*
Yuuri - *chokes again*
Celi - *sighs* "I remember one of my old boyfriends, the man I was with before I married Wolfram's father." *stares at the ceiling as if she can see his face in the plaster* "He had the nicest-*
Wolfram - *interrupts her* MOTHER!!! KNOCK IT OFF!!! We are NOT having this conversation!!!" *goes back to glaring heavily at Yuuri* "And you had better not tell ANYONE ANYTHING, or there will be NO wedding!!!"
Yuuri - *shrinking down so much in his chair he's not really in it anymore/squeaks* "I wasn't going to!!!"
Greta - *enjoying all this/more giggles*
Murata - "Don't be so uptight, you two. Everyone does it."
Yuuri - "Murata!!! Greta's here!"
Greta - "I don't mind!" *grin*
Murata - "I'm sure she acts more mature about the whole thing than you do..."
Conrart - *smiles at Murata* "I think you're pushing this over the edge a bit."
Murata - *only smirks more/raising a curious eyebrow in Yuuri's direction* "If you're this high-strung, von Bielefeld must be holding out on you quite a bit. I guess we won't be seeing any babies for another few years..."
Wolfram - *grinds his teeth together*
Yuuri - *would much rather be with Gwendal than put up with this/finishes the last of what was on his plate and hurriedly stands up to move around the table, grabbing for Wolfram's wrist in the process* "Let's go...."
Wolfram - *startled out of his anger/gets up from his chair, intent on following him, but first he grabs the glass of juice by his plate, and as they pass Murata on their way around the table he dumps it over his head, dropping the glass to shatter on the floor immediately after*
Greta - *squeals in delight/waves after her fathers and blows them kisses good bye*
Conrart - *somewhat in shock/but smiles anyway and shakes his head* "Cute couple..."
Yuuri - *hastily pulls Wolfram out of the room/still in a panic/quickly shuts the door behind him, pausing to lean up against the wall to catch his breath*
Wolfram - *stops to stand in front of him, still really, really angry and wishing he could wring someone's neck/makes sure to glare at each and every maid and guard who even dares to look their way*
Yuuri - *still panting lightly/frowns/worried* ".... I'm sorry you had to be put through that... If I had known...."
Wolfram - *glares up at him dangerously/speaks lowly* "If your friend makes one more inappropriate comment about our relationship I will challenge him to a duel, and I will win, and then you will no longer have anyone to trade 'sex tales' with, do you understand me?"
Yuuri - *quickly holds up his hands in defense* "Don't look at me! I have nothing to tell him! You're the only person I've kissed!" *pauses, thoughtful* "Well... other than my mother, but that doesn't count!"
Wolfram - *threateningly* "You had better be telling the truth, because if you're not I will find out, and then it will not be Gwendal whom you fear most in this world."
Yuuri - *squeaks* "I swear!!"
Wolfram - "I did not give you my first kiss for you to turn around and become an adulterous bastard."
Yuuri - *blinks at him/startled/curious* "You.... I was the first that.... Really?"
Wolfram - *flushes brightly* "What the hell did you think?!"
Yuuri - *opens his mouth, then closes it* "I-I don't know... I just thought.... I haven't known you for more than a few years.... It's just... Wow, really?"
Wolfram - "Yes!!! Why is that so shocking?! I'm not a slut, Yuuri!! I don't go and kiss every handsome man I meet!!"
Yuuri - *blinks at him* "But you're so.... I would have thought that everyone...." *stops and blushes* "Sorry.... I.... I didn't...."
Wolfram - *still glaring at him* "You think I'd actually let someone I'm not in love with kiss me?!"
Yuuri - *still staring at him/curious* "I'm the only person you've fallen in love with?"
Wolfram - "Who else is there?!?!"
Yuuri - *points* "Elizabeth..."
Wolfram - *blushes again/looks even angrier* "Elizabeth is my friend!!! I have no idea why she got it into her head that she was in love with me, but I was not ever in love with her!!!"
Yuuri - *absentmindedly grins at him/talking more to himself/in awe* "I'm the only person you've been in love with?"
Wolfram - *pissed off/sarcastic* "No, you stupid wimp! Before you came along I was the palace whore! I slept with anyone who gave me a compliment, and kissed nearly everyone in the capital!!"
Yuuri - *still smiling/didn't hear what he said or just ignored it* "You're the only one I've been in love with, too."
Wolfram - *rolls his eyes* "Like I couldn't have figured that out on my own. Stupid!! I shouldn't have gotten out of bed this morning! I should have made you deal with all of this yourself!!!" *kicks at the wall, hard, and immediately regrets it* "OW!! DAMMIT!!!"
Yuuri - *eyes widen/instantly worried/reaches out to grab Wolfram, holding on to balance him* "W-what did you do that for? Are you okay?? Can you walk??"
Wolfram - *shoves him away* "Don't touch me!!" *hobbles away a few steps, wincing*
Yuuri - *follows after him/even more worried* "Wolf.... I'm sorry... "
Wolfram - *grumbles under his breath* "Stupid wimp..." *eventually leans back against the wall and slides down to sit on the floor*
Yuuri - *quickly crouches down next to him/definitely worried/trying his hardest to resist holding him* "Wolf....."
Wolfram - *winces more* "I knew this was going to be the most horrible experience of my life. I knew it..."
Yuuri - *frowns at him/more worried than upset about anything* "Let me see your foot..."
Wolfram - *glares at him, but yanks his right boot and stocking off/grumbles* "I'm fine..."
Yuuri - *eyes widen/hands reach out to hover over the boy's foot, not wanting to touch it and hurt him more* "Jeez, Wolf. It's already swelling!" *frowns/angry at himself* "Don't say you're fine when you're not...."
Wolfram - *growls through clenched teeth* "I'm. Fine."
Yuuri - *glares at him, then lightly touches his foot/watching for his reaction*
Wolfram - *winces and pulls his foot away*
Yuuri - *growls lightly/still mad at himself for getting Wolfram so worked up* "Uh huh, you're fine..."
Wolfram - "I would be if you wouldn't touch it!" *taking all of his anger and frustration out on him*
Yuuri - *glances over his shoulder to one of the passing guards* "Hey, get someone to find Gisela and tell her to go to my room..." *turns back and takes the boot and stocking and sets them in the boy's lap, then swiftly scoops him off the ground, standing up and holding him so he wouldn't squirm away*
Wolfram - *startled/quickly wraps his arms around his neck* "Yuuri!!!"
Yuuri - *frowns at him/serious* "You're hurt. You will not walk until Gisela says you can, got it?"
Wolfram - "I'll do whatever I damn well please!!"
Yuuri - *growls lightly from the back of his throat*
Wolfram - *is in no way intimidated/starts to struggle* "Let me go!!"
Yuuri - *completely ignores him and starts to make his way back to their room*
Wolfram - "Dammit, Yuuri, listen to me or I swear you'll live to regret it!! I'll never let you touch me again, do you hear me?!"
Yuuri - *clenches his teeth/holding on tighter* "What do you want?"
Wolfram - "Let me go."
Yuuri - "No."
Wolfram - "NOW!"
Yuuri - "NO."
Wolfram - "YES!!"
Yuuri - "NO!!!" *continues to the room*
Wolfram - *still shouting for the entire palace to hear* "FINE!! Then no kissing, no touching, and you can expect me to not show up on our wedding day!!"
Yuuri - *flinches/was already torn between letting him do what he wanted or what was probably best for him/doesn't say anything, just holds onto him*
Wolfram - "And THAT means you won't be getting what you want, and you won't EVER be able to trade disgusting little 'tales' with the sage, because you won't have any to tell!!!" *is really just ranting about anything he can think of now/hasn't thrown a tantrum like this in a long, long time*
Yuuri - *flinches more/tries to keep a straight face but is actually really upset about not just letting the blond do as he wanted, regardless of being injured or not*
Wolfram - "Put me down, Yuuri!!!" *struggles more*
Yuuri - *teeth still clenched* "No...." *stops walking to stand in front of their bedroom door, obviously unable to open it*
Wolfram - *glares, removing his arms from around Yuuri's neck to cross them over his chest, not really caring that Yuuri could very easily drop him* "Good. Can't do anything now, can you? Now put. Me. Down!"
Yuuri - *stares mournfully at him, slowly backing up against the wall opposite the door and sliding down to the floor/still holding onto the blond*
Wolfram - *struggles harder* "Let me go, Yuuri."
Yuuri - *shakes his head/pulls the blond closer to bury his face in his shoulder/really upset and not about what the blond had said*
Wolfram - *hits at his chest with his fists* "Yuuri!! Listen to me, dammit!!!"
Yuuri - *slowly/muffled* "I let you get hurt.... I'm sorry...."
Wolfram - *still angry, and seemingly not ready to let go of it* "Shut up!! I hurt myself!! And I can walk on my own, so let me go!!!"
Yuuri - *slowly shakes his head* "I don't want to...."
Wolfram - "Well, I want you to!!"
Yuuri - *very close to just caving/hates not giving Wolfram what he wants* "I'm sorry... I promised I wouldn't let anything happen to you...."
Wolfram - *still struggling* "Well then it sucks for you that I decided to be stupid and kick a wall!!"
Yuuri - *sighs and releases his hold on the blond, but doesn't move other than that/still very upset with himself*
Wolfram - *removes himself from Yuuri's embrace/climbs onto his good foot and opens the bedroom door, hobbling inside/slams the door behind him*
Yuuri - *doesn't move, just stares blankly at the door/points at the door as he notices Gisela running down the hall*
Gisela - *out of breath from running/blinks curiously at him, but heads to the door anyway, knocking on it*
Wolfram - *does not bother to answer/is currently limping around the room, throwing anything he can get his hands on - books, pillows, blankets, clothing, you name it he throws it/takes great pleasure in knowing that the stupid, gossiping maids will have to clean it all up later*
Yuuri - *sighs* "Just go in..."
Gisela - *rolls her eyes, knowing better/knocks again* "Your Excellence? It's me..."
Wolfram - "Leave me alone!!!" *the sound of shattering glass proceeds his shouting*
Yuuri - *winces/not knowing what to do besides just sit there and sulk*
Gisela - *pushes the door open just a bit* "Your Excellence... I need to look at your foot..."
Wolfram - *hobbles over to the door, opens it half-way, sticks his foot out for her to look at, and then slams it in her face*
Yuuri - *slides down to lay on the floor*
Gisela - *stronger* " I'm coming in..." *pushes the door open and steps in with her bag of herbs and such*
Wolfram - *throws a book at her, but misses, and it crashes into the wall instead*
Gisela - *shuts the door behind her/quite aware things would be thrown at her* "Sit on the bed..."
Wolfram - "What, so you can check up on me?! I don't think so!!" *glares at her, still hobbling around the room, quickly running out of things to throw* "You wanna know all the little details about mine and Yuuri's relationship, don't you?! I bet that stupid sage or one of the others sent you here before I even hurt my foot!! They seem to think I'm some sort of a whore who'd get himself pregnant before he's even married!!" *looks towards the mirror and glares at his reflection, wondering how loud it would sound if he broke it*
Gisela - *blinks at him/confused* "I don't know what you're talking about, but if you don't stop walking around like that I won't be able to heal you as quickly..."
Wolfram - "I don't give a damn!!! Maybe if I can't walk I won't have to leave this room and see anyone else!!"
Gisela - *frowns/still confused but patient* "Why don't you want to see anyone?"
Wolfram - "Because they're all stupid!! Making assumptions, asking inappropriate questions, sticking their noses where they don't belong..." *starts looking around for something hard enough to break the mirror with*
Gisela - *watches him curiously* "I don't mean to be sticking my nose where it doesn't belong... But I really do need to see your foot... You're going to really injure yourself... Please sit down and let me look at it?"
Wolfram - *glares at her* "Hell no!!" *starts tearing through Yuuri's closet, flinging clothes around until he stumbles upon one of his baseballs/he picks it up* "Perfect..."
Gisela - *cautiously makes her way towards him* "Wolfram... If you break that, the glass will go everywhere... You're only wearing one shoe. Please be reasonable. Do you need to talk about it?"
Wolfram - "No... I need you to go away!!!" *limps away from the closet, ball at hand, trying to decide what would be a safe distance to throw it from*
Gisela - *moves to stand between him and the mirror* "Just let me heal your foot and I'll leave."
Wolfram - "No!!" *throws the ball, but his aim is horrible and it ends up hitting the wall instead* "Dammit!!!"
Gisela - *moves to scoop up the ball/holding it carefully in her hand* "Wolfram.... Won't you tell me what's bothering you?"
Wolfram - "Everyone is bothering me!!!" *continues to rant and glare* "You know what... Yuuri!!!" *shouts for him, knowing he's still out in the hallway* "Yuuri, get in here and make a baby with me!!!! We wouldn't want to disappoint anyone!!!"
Gisela - *blinks at him/obviously hadn't been told about any new information on the couple's relationship yet* "Wolfram... Please... I'll leave you alone if you just let me do my job."
Wolfram - "I don't want you to do your job!! My foot is fine!! Now leave me alone!!!" *bends down to yank his other boot and stocking off, then limps towards the door, unfastening his jacket* "Yuuri, do you hear me?! Get in here!! I'm taking my clothes off!!" *completely irrational*
Gisela - *frowns/worried about his mental state too now* "Wolfram... I don't think His Majesty is going to come in here if you yell for him like that... " *moves closer to the blond* "If your foot is fine, then this won't take very long. Just let me see it, please."
Wolfram - "No!! How many times do I have to tell you that before you finally leave?!"
Gisela - *frowns more at him* "I'm under orders... You know I can't leave..."
Wolfram - *takes his jacket off and flings it at her* "YUURI!!!"
Gisela - *moves around to stand in front of him* "His Majesty didn't look like he was going to be going anywhere anytime soon when I saw him... Please let me see your foot."
Wolfram - "Not until Yuuri gets in here!!"
Gisela - *raises her eyebrow/suspiciously* "If His Majesty were in here, you'd let me see your foot?"
Wolfram - *starts yanking on the buttons of his white undershirt* "If it will get you to leave me the hell alone!!!"
Gisela - *frowns at him/turns and moves to the door, cracking it open/turns back/slightly surprised* "He's not there..."
Wolfram - *his face goes completely red with anger/he bends down to pick his hair brush off of the floor and throws it at the mirror/the mirror promptly shatters into a hundred different pieces, raining down onto the floor*
Gisela - *frowns, watching him*
Wolfram - *stands there, silent for a long moment, his breathing a little heavy/finally he turns and tosses himself face down onto the bed, losing all of his previous energy*
Gisela - *moves around the bed once it looked safe* "Do you want me to find him?"
Wolfram - *mutters* "Shut up!"
Gisela - "Will you let me see your foot?"
Wolfram - "No!"
Gisela - *stands there, watching him*
Wolfram - "That wimp went and left me!"
Gisela - *raises an eyebrow* "I wouldn't say His Majesty left you, Your Excellency... You were the one that left him in the hall..." *had heard the door slam*
Wolfram - "Shut up!!" *a little louder this time*
Gisela - *shuts up/still standing there*
Wolfram - *completely ignores her presence/pounds one of his fists into the mattress angrily*
Gisela - *cautiously steps forward/softly* "Wolfram...?"
Wolfram - *pounds his fist again, starting to feel truly pathetic* "Leave me alone!"
Gisela - *sighs and moves over to the end of the bed where his foot was/cranes her neck to get a better look without actually having to get his attention/frowns at how his foot was already bruised/cautiously places her hands over it to start the healing, regardless on whether he wanted her to or not*
Wolfram - *just lays there and fumes, teeth clenched and eyes shut as he shoves his face into the mattress, hands now gripping tightly to whatever sheets or blankets are left on the bed after his little throwing fit, wanting to tear the fabric into shreds*
Gisela - *finishes up and slowly pulls her hands away/starts to dig through her bag, pulling out a little bottle/slowly walks over to place it on the side table/softly* "That's all I can do... You should be fine to walk now, but it'll still be bruised... Put on that lotion at night before going to bed... it should make the bruise disappear faster..."
Wolfram - *grumbles* "Whatever. I don't care."
Gisela - *watches him/still worried* "Wolfram..."
Wolfram - *snappy* "What?!"
Gisela - *sighs* "Don't be too hard on yourself..."
Wolfram - "What the hell would you know?! Just go away and leave me alone!! And tell Yuuri that I don't want to see his wimpy face for the rest of the day!!" *bitter that Yuuri left him, choosing to once again ignore the fact that he'd been the one to leave him out in the hallway earlier*
Gisela - *shakes her head* "You should probably talk to him..."
Wolfram - "I don't want to!! He didn't come in here when I told him to!!"
Gisela - "I'm sure he's really worried about you..." *though... she doesn't really know where he could have gone..."
Wolfram - "Whatever. Let him worry his little heart out."
Gisela - *frowns/patient* "I don't know what exactly happened... But it would be better to tell him how you felt... It'll make things easier for both of you..."
Wolfram - "I just want people to shut up and leave us alone!"
Gisela - *curious* "Shut up about what?"
Wolfram - "Everything!" *flushes in both anger and embarrassment* "Now I can understand why some people just run away and elope!!"
Gisela - *blinks/even more curious/can't help but want to know more* "You're finally getting married?"
Wolfram - "Yes!!" *sits up to glare at her darkly* "We're getting married this spring, unless people decide to keep bothering us about it, in which case I'll call the damn thing off!!!"
Gisela - *smiles softly at him* "Congratulations. I bet you're really excited about it. So I'm guessing His Majesty finally admitted his feelings for you?"
Wolfram - *sarcastic/still very, very angry, and extremely annoyed with everyone's comments and questions* "No, I made him feel guilty and roped him into it!!!"
Gisela - *still smiling* "That works just as well." *doesn't want to get him even more angry, much less he start throwing things at her again* "Well, since you're not in any danger of dying, I'll take my leave now. But please be careful walking around... There's glass everywhere now..."
Wolfram - "Good!!! Then maybe I'll hurt my other foot and no be able to walk for awhile!!!"
Gisela - *frowns/places her hands on her hips/scolding* "You should be ashamed with yourself for wanting to make everybody worry."
Wolfram - *still shouting and glaring* "Nobody's worried! They don't care about anything as long as they have something to gossip about!"
Gisela - *still frowning at him* "I'm worried. His Majesty is most definitely worried. And what about Greta? You're just going to let her get upset because you've decided you're only worth something if it has to do with gossip?"
Wolfram - *turns away from her to bury his face back into the mattress, hoping to suffocate himself* "Shut up!! This doesn't concern you!!"
Gisela - *frown lightens a bit because she's more worried than upset* "It does concern me if you end up injuring yourself carelessly like you hope."
Wolfram - "Whatever. Just go away."
Gisela - *nods/starts to move away, pausing at the door* "Whatever is going on... things will get better."
Wolfram - "You don't know anything!" *lifts his head to glare at her again* "Tell some of the maids to get in here and start cleaning, and that if they so much as say one word I'll have their tongues cut out!!"
Gisela - *frowns, but nods and leaves, shutting the door quietly behind her*
Wolfram - *goes back to smothering his face into the bed, dragging one of the sheets that had managed to survive his fit up and over him, hiding away*
Yuuri - *glances up from his spot against the wall in the hall when Gisela exits* "... Is he okay?"
Gisela - *jumps and frowns at him/still quiet* "If you're talking about his foot, yes, he'll live. Where have you been, Your Majesty?"
Yuuri - *shrugs*
Gisela - *grumbles something about men underneath her breath* "Well... If you're going in there, be careful... There's glass all over the floor... I'm going to get some maids to go in and clean up..."
Yuuri - *gawks at her/not too sure what he had missed/assumes it was pretty bad/watches her leave but doesn't move* "..."
Gunter - *scrambles down the hall in a panic, flustered/spots Yuuri* "Your Majesty!"
Yuuri - *groans loudly/not bothering to hide his frustration/NOT wanting to move* "What?"
Gunter - *looks at him curiously/puzzled* "What are you doing out in the hallway, Your Majesty?"
Yuuri - *grumbles* "Punishment..." *whether he's referring to punishing himself or because Wolfram didn't seem too thrilled about being around him... it wasn't clear...*
Gunter - "Punish-" *stops himself, deeply confused/shakes his head to clear it, remembering why he'd been searching the halls in the first place* "Regardless.... Gwendal is waiting for you, Your Majesty. He explicitly requested that both you and Wolfram meet him in your study. I'm afraid his patience is nearing its limit."
Yuuri - *flinches badly at being reminded of the bad mood Gwendal was in* "But.... Wolfram...." *doesn't really know what to say about the blond*
Gunter - *looks around as if searching for someone else* "Where is Wolfram?"
Yuuri - *jabs a thumb at the door* "Gisela said it was dangerous..." *the broken glass was dangerous, moron*
Gunter - *looks momentarily startled* "Did he set anything on fire?"
Yuuri - *eyes widen* "I really hope not..."
Gunter - "Oh, dear..." *doesn't really know what to do/eventually comes to a decision* "Well, then you must see to Gwendal on your own."
Yuuri - *flat out panics* "WHAT?! No!!!"
Gunter - *arches an eyebrow, truly curious* "You'd rather he become even angrier?" *inwardly marvels at His Majesty's courage*
Yuuri - *gawks wordlessly at him/is really a coward and doesn't want to be alone when facing Gwendal* "W-what? N-no! I just...." *more panic*
Gunter - *grabs onto his arm* "Come, Your Majesty. You mustn’t make him wait any longer. And there's work to be done." *starts to try pulling him down the hall*
Yuuri - *panics and attempts to pull away* "W-wait! Let me see if Wolfram's okay, first!!!"
Gunter - *looks as if he's about to argue, but relents, releasing his arm* "Quickly, Your Majesty."
Yuuri - *sighs in relief/stalling from having to face Gwendal/quickly walks over to the door, tapping on it lightly* "Wolf??"
Wolfram - *doesn't answer/hides further under the sheet*
Yuuri - *glances over his shoulder at Gunter, possibly for a suggestion on what to do/ends up slowly opening the door to peek in/winces at the mess/quietly* "Wolf...?"
Wolfram - *still doesn't answer/squeezes his eyes shut and tries to remain still/acts like he's sleeping*
Yuuri - *assumes Wolfram's sleeping/holds up his finger to Gunter, indicating that he wanted just a minute/steps into the room, shutting the door behind him/carefully makes his way over to the bed, wincing at the loud crack of broken glass under his shoes/tries to be quieter, not wanting to wake up the blond*
Wolfram - *flinches ever so slightly at the sound/can tell he's getting closer/has to hold back a huff of annoyance*
Yuuri - *slowly sits down on the edge of the bed, trying not to make too much movement/reaches over to brush his fingers through Wolfram's hair some*
Wolfram - *can't help but scoot away/brings the sheet up over his head so Yuuri can't touch*
Yuuri - *blinks/blushing when he realized he wasn't actually sleeping* "Wolf?"
Wolfram - *mumbles* "Leave me alone..."
Yuuri - *frowns sadly at him/not wanting to leave him like this* "Wolf... I'm sorry... "
Wolfram - *doesn't respond*
Yuuri - *cautiously reaches out his hand to touch the blond's back* "Wolf... I didn't mean for all this to happen... I didn't know that everyone..." *trails off, frowning* "... I'm sorry..."
Wolfram - *pouts under the sheet* "... where were you...?"
Yuuri - *blinks at him/a little confused* "Where was I...?"
Wolfram - *grumpy* "I called for you..."
Yuuri - *blinks again/didn't know he was called/wishes he had actually been there/still a bit confused* "I went to the bathroom.... I thought you would have been fine with Gisela... I didn't mean not to be there when you wanted me... I'll be sure to tell you next time...."
Wolfram - *grumbles* "I don't want you in here now..."
Yuuri - *flinches* "Oh...." *really doesn't want to leave him, especially after not being there when he called for him*
Wolfram - *continues to grumble and pout, shifting under the sheet to get more comfortable but not taking it off*
Yuuri - *frowns worriedly at him* "Wolf... I'm sorry... Please believe me..."
Wolfram - "Hmph!"
Yuuri - *sighs/watches him*
Wolfram - *squirms uncomfortably/knows he's watching* "... what do you want?"
Yuuri - *winces* "I wanted to know if you were okay..."
Wolfram - "Does it look like I'm okay?!"
Yuuri - *mournful* "No..."
Wolfram - "What makes you think I want you in here?! I don't want to see your face!! Go laugh and gossip with your stupid friend!!"
Yuuri - *startled/upset with himself/really, really doesn't want to leave* "Wolf... I had nothing to do with... I didn't know...."
Wolfram - "You didn't even try to defend me!! I had to deal with that all on my own!! You just stood there like a moron!!"
Yuuri - *stares at him/seriously hating himself* "I.... I'm sorry... I didn't know what...." *trails off to mouth wordlessly*
Wolfram - *feels pathetic* "And now everyone has it in their heads that we..." *doesn't finish/blushes*
Yuuri - *doesn't know what to do* "Wolf... I'm sorry.... I really never meant for any of this to happen. I'll talk to Murata... He shouldn't have said anything.... And it was wrong for me not to tell him off right then... I just... I wasn't expecting it...." *feels even more like a moron*
Wolfram - "..." *would like to continue whining and complaining and being angry, but has completely run out of energy*
Yuuri - *reaches out to touch his back again* ".... I love you.... I really do.... And I wouldn't gossip... especially about you... especially if you're uncomfortable about everyone thinking...." *shakes his head* "I wouldn't do that to you... please believe me..."
Wolfram - *pouts more, unconsciously pressing back into his hand* "... wimp..."
Yuuri - *rubs his back gently, leaning down to kiss his head through the fabric/quiet* "I really love you...."
Wolfram - *mumbles grumpily* "... I love you, too..."
Yuuri - *smiles softly at him* "Will you forgive me for how I've acted? I won't put you through that again... I promise...."
Wolfram - *still grumbling* "I shouldn't have gone with you to breakfast. Next time we have something important to tell everyone, you're telling them yourself."
Yuuri - *laughs lightly* "Alright... Next time there's something important I'll do it on my own..."
Wolfram - "Good..." *rolls onto his back and removes the sheet partway/glares at him*
Yuuri - *smiles wider/staring at him* "I've missed seeing your face, you know...."
Wolfram - *pulls the sheet back up*
Yuuri - *pouts* "Awww...."
Wolfram - *quietly* "... the room's a mess..."
Yuuri - *nods/agreeing/more amused than upset* "Yes, it is..."
Wolfram - *just as quietly* "... I broke everything..."
Yuuri - *nods again* "The mirror too, I see... Seven years bad luck, you know."
Wolfram - *removes the sheet enough to look at him again/has no idea what he's talking about* "What?"
Yuuri - *smiles upon seeing his face again* "Just some silly superstition on Earth. They say when you break a mirror you get seven years of bad luck."
Wolfram - *confused* "Why?"
Yuuri - *pauses, thinking* "I think it's because a long time ago, it was believed that the image in a mirror is our actual soul... So when it's broken, it's supposed to be the soul being torn away from the person's body." *smiles* "But it's just a silly Earth thing...."
Wolfram - *whines* "No~" *rolls over to shove his face into the mattress again/groans* "I've already had enough bad luck."
Yuuri - *reaches to rub his back gently* "I think you can counter it by waiting seven hours before picking up the pieces and bury them outside in the moonlight." *doesn't really know what he's talking about, but he assumes it's something crazy like that* "You're not really worried about that, are you?"
Wolfram - *still pouting* "No..."
Yuuri - *leans down to kiss his head again* "Then what are you fussing about? And what bad luck have you had?" *still stupid*
Wolfram - *looks at him with a dark glare* "I was kidnapped. I almost died. You left and we had no idea if you'd ever come back. It took you years to finally tell me you love me, and when you do it's the dead of winter, so I have to wait even longer to get married. Now I've broken a mirror, and I'll have even more bad luck. Our wedding day is going to be ruined somehow, I just know it, and our babies will be sick and deformed, or stillborn, or miscarried and I'll be a failure forever..."
Yuuri - *blinks at him, then leans down to wrap his arms around him as best he could with the mattress in the way* "Our wedding day is not going to be ruined... And any children we have will be as beautiful and strong as you.... You're not a failure, so don't think like that..."
Wolfram - *doesn't move, but doesn't push him away either* "I overreacted, and now our room is destroyed."
Yuuri - *buries his face gently into his shoulder/closing his eyes* "That's what the maids are for... They deserve a bit of trouble for this morning..." *was annoyed with everyone, too*
Wolfram - *pouts and lifts his arms to hug him/softly* "... I'm sorry..."
Yuuri - *heart skips a beat/hugs him tighter* "You're fine... Believe me... I should have thought of you more... I should have stood up for you... I'm the one that should be sorry... and I am sorry..."
Wolfram - *shakes his head* "I'm such a brat..."
Yuuri - *laughs lightly* "But you're my brat..."
Wolfram - *pouts* "Why couldn't you have said stuff like that last spring?"
Yuuri - *winces* "Uh.... W-well...."
Wolfram - "We could have been married already."
Yuuri - *pulls away to look at him* "I know... I'm sorry... But it won't be long, now... We can make it 'til spring, right?"
Gunter - *knocks on the door* "Your Majesty..."
Wolfram - *growls and glares at the door*
Yuuri - *flinches/quickly lays down on the bed, flinging his arm over top of Wolfram as if to protect him/panicked whisper* "Pretend you're asleep!!!" *shuts his eyes/fake snore*
Wolfram - *startled* "Wha?!"
Gunter - "Your Majesty!"
Yuuri - *fake snore stops for a second/opens one eye to look at him* "Gwendal is pissed...." *fake snore again*
Gunter - *sounds desperate* "Your Majesty, please!"
Wolfram - *doesn't know what to do/just lays there*
Yuuri - *winces again/lifts his head up to yell at the door* "Can't hear you! We're sleeping!" *lays back down/tries burying his face under Wolfram's arm*
Gwendal - *from in the hallway/extremely, extremely pissed* "Open. The. Door!"
And that's it for this bit... Ahahaha... I love Gwendal... But he can be really scary sometimes... Especially when he's pissed... But HEY! At least something is actually happening, right...?? As for the title... Uhh... Well, for whoever doesn't know anything about baseball... The strike zone is where the pitcher has to get the ball in order to... well... make a strike... So... Yeah... It was really just random... 'cause Mi-chan and I aren't that great with titles... But don't you just love Murata's baseball analogies?? Yeah... he's pretty much the reason for the titles of... everything... <3 Thanks for reading~
Edit - *grumbles* I always forget to take out the little asterisks from the censored stuff... because Mikage thinks it looks stupid... but really... we rp with whatever curses censored... because I'm not really comfortable with typing them out... much less saying them out loud... so yeah... BUT! I'm going back to change them all~ Just so it doesn't look stupid... XD; Yeah~
