♐ 005 // [Action | Voice]

[Those who live or pass by house 12, may smell something very very delicious coming from the kitchen. Because despite being the man who hates sweet things, Raven is exceptionally good at making them. And how could you not want a slice? Look at it, it's gorgeous. Considering the snow is lightly falling outside once again, he has no intentions of going out this afternoon, so why not spend it doing something delicious and productive? After all, baking cakes is only one of the many ways to a woman's heart!]


[Later on in the evening he throws up a filter. This is something he needs to address before the day is over.]

[Filtered to Alexei | Unhackable]

Hey boss! No point in playin' hide and seek anymore, I know you're here.

[and she quickly has to regain her composure as she turns to see the pink haired young woman poking out. there was something rather familiar about the girl, as well as the name. no, it was more than that. also the voice...was the same girl she had spoken to just yesterday. if so then—]

Yes, I am. I am Casey, captain of the Casey Brigade of the Imperial Knights.

[she then paused, once again looking at Estelle] Forgive me but...

Your Highness? Is that you? [while she never really had privy to meet the princess in person, she at least knew of and had seen the then young girl before—if anything by the portraits. there's no doubt they shared the same pink hair, and the faces were rather similar. include the fact that they shared the same name, it wouldn't be too hard to put it together.]

[inabook]

[Casey...? Estelle's eyes immediately move to Raven for a moment, recognizing the significance of that name. A woman named Casey, from the Imperial Knights, and a captain that certainly wasn't current. ...But she had called him 'Raven,' also. Did that mean he was keeping up his charade around her? Either way, she'd have to discuss this with him later.

And then Casey speaks again. That came out quick, not that it would have been any secret at all once Flynn comes on the scene with his "Lady Estellise."]

Yes.... that's correct. And I believe we spoke yesterday, as well.

[crisisrain]

[That's strange, he wasn't aware that they'd already met one another.]

You both spoke yesterday? Ah right... public journal entry. I already explained ta her that we're ten years ahead, so don't worry about that Princess.

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

We did, though I had no idea at the time. [she gives a deep bow toward Estelle] I apologize for any rudeness I may have displayed then.

[as she straightens, she has a rather quizzical expression] But I hardly expected to see you here, Your Highness, especially living under the same roof as someone like Raven.

[inabook]

There was nothing like that at all, and please, do call me Estelle. [....not that she expects a knight like Casey to listen.] And Raven is a friend. It's a bit of a complicated story, but most of us in this house were traveling together before our arrival here.

[crisisrain]

[He passes a glare towards Casey.] I'll have you know I have standards!

But Estelle's right, it's a complicated enough story. Maybe we'll tell ya about it someday.

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[she'll just be slamming her fist right into Raven's gut while still looking at Estelle with a straight face. ...though this reaction somehow felt rather familiar. hm.]

But why were you traveling, Lady Estellise? [she expected right.] Or is that part of the "complicated story"?

[inabook]

[...It's not really an unfamiliar sight to Estelle either.] I'm afraid so. Though it began with bringing a message to a friend.

[crisisrain]

[Raven will be over here, coughing up blood. Good god he forgot how hard she used to hit him.]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[she had gone easy on him, too. but ignoring.]

And you couldn't send a messenger out to send it to them instead?

[inabook]

[Estelle cannot ignore. Sorry Casey. Brb rushing over and aiming some healing artes at the old man.] Raven!

[crisisrain]

Oh Estelle darlin', yer so kind ta me. Thanks a bunch!

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[while Casey stares]

Your Highness...you can perform healing artes?

[inabook]

That's right... [...] You really shouldn't hit people that hard, even if they deserve it.

[crisisrain]

Ya shouldn't hit people who invite you into their home or ones you've only just met, geez... What would we ever do without your healin' powers?

Then perhaps you should learn to watch your tongue when speaking before royal nobility—or at least in front of a lady. [severe as always.]
