Hm... There hasn't been a whole lot for me to do lately, and I've spent the majority of my free time contemplating my life. Everyone is so happy... I look around - and I won't admit this, of course - but I've been a tad jealous when I see how happy someone could be when they're with the person they care about. I'm really happy for Geddoe.
I was asked to answer a simple question earlier: "Would you ever consider settling down someday?" The answer? Yes! But I don't think anyone would be interested in a man like me - face it, I'm always busy, sometimes I leave without notice. I don't want to put anyone through that stressful situation.
Sometimes I try to maintain a flirtatious demeanor around people to appear light and humorous. I can't have people taking me too seriously with a job like mine. But as hard as I try to keep myself uninterested in someone, I just can't help but notice how wonderful Queen is to be around. She makes me laugh, and behind that tough exterior I know she's a very caring and loving mother.
I can't deny my feelings for her any longer. It's becoming so difficult to suppress my own feelings and keep my distance. What will she think of me? Does she still think of me as a flirt? Does she think I have an ulterior motive behind my kindness? She's been through a lot, and no matter what I will always be there for her. But then there was that kiss... And I couldn't make out what she said, but did she say...?
... Ah, this is so silly of me to think about. If what she said was true, and she... I would gladly give up my job for her. I'm sure Sasarai would understand - in fact, he might even encourage the idea of settling down
