Flynn had just finished having his breakfast and was on his way out for another day of helping around the city when Estelle launched herself at him and hugged him tightly. It was a surprise, though Flynn didn't think much of at first. So early in the morning as it was, the reasons behind Estelle's impromptu embrace being something truly worrisome hadn't occurred to Flynn yet.
"Lady Estellise?" he asked in a slightly confused tone as he placed a hand on the princess' shoulder.
"Is something the matter?" He asked after a moment, and this time he began to worry.
He was warm and there was a heartbeat. That’s all she needed to know that he was okay. Feeling the hand on her shoulder and hearing him speak also calmed her down incredibly. No, she didn’t hurt him, that was just a terrible nightmare. While she didn’t know what triggered her to have such a dream, it was enough to be insanely worried for his wellbeing. Part of her even thought for a moment that perhaps she shouldn’t be so close to him, but for the time being she didn’t care.
She was simply happy that he was okay.
Hearing his question, she shook her head against his chest, “No, everything is alright. I’m just so happy that you’re okay!”
She didn’t even realize how confusing that statement was without the proper context, but she still wasn’t thinking clearly for the time being due to the shock of her nightmare.
"Happy... that I'm okay?" Flynn repeated out loud. Estelle's words didn't make much sense without proper context, as she'd surmised, but it did give him an idea of why Estelle had felt the need to ascertain his well-being.
"Is it something Yuri has said?" He questioned after giving it some thought. Yuri and him hadn't spoken again since their fight at the balcony, and until whatever Yuri had done to himself was reversed, it didn't seem likely that they would be having a civil conversation anytime soon. Flynn thought that it was likely Yuri had spoken of something involving him that worried Estelle...
A part of him thought it was unlikely, of course. Even without the proper set of memories, Yuri wasn't the type to make such threats... And why would Yuri go so far as to upset Lady Estellise?
Still, he couldn't fully discount that possibility...
“Ah, no. I haven’t spoken to Yuri as of recently…”
And Estelle knew Yuri well enough, even in the state he was currently in, to know that he would never do such things to upset her. In fact, while what Flynn had said made sense, it confused her at the same time.
Finally pulling away from her embrace, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down even more. Flynn was okay, everything was fine. It was just a nightmare that felt a bit too lifelike, however it wasn’t real. Looking up at him, she forced a smile as if to try to tell him that she was okay now. Her biggest worry was calming her fears, which was something she had done successfully.
