[This is a bit embarrassing, but Ky doesn't have to worry about his cheeks pinkening. He can bear it with dignity. At least the crown on his head matches his uniform, and the dignity is part of what the crown is helping him feel.]

People of Vatheon.

[His voice is a little lofty, a little with the tone of someone who expects people to be impressed with him.]

Maybe we should take these hats, this "curse" as a gift. It's allowed me to see something I've been missing out on.

[Ky brings something up to his mouth, what looks like a fancy chocolate desert. He pauses to study it further, holding it between him and the SFC.]

It smells so nice.

[Maybe the point is to eat it, but no, he's going to stare at it a while longer. Once he eats it, it'll be gone, and he's in no hurry for that.]

[Ky...Ky, no. Johnny is doing his best to not smirk or laugh...sadly, his best isn't covering the former.]

You've been missing out on chocolate? And it took you being some haughty royal to find it?

[Brb, amused forever.]

[closedcircuit]

It didn't seem worthy the time to enjoy it before.

[But now he's been holding it long enough that it's starting to melt, as he makes a face.]

I'm not 'haughty'.

Video

[not_heavens_adam]

No? 'Arrogantly superior and disdainful?' What else would you call it?

...you might want to eat that before it melts, though.

[He's just going to sit here and be forever amused.]

You're being rude.

[Sniff.]

I suppose. But once I eat it, it will be gone.

*Selphie is wearing a glittering tiara, and is very well made up. She glances at the chocolate in his hand*

Hmm...that looks like the kind I had for lunch earlier today. If it is, then I suppose it is quite good.

*Just out of shot, a local holds a straw to Selphie's lip, a pink straw that leads to a glass of champagne*

(video)

[closedcircuit]

Fit for a princess?

[He studies the glass that he can see, sniffs a little when he makes his assumption for what it is she's drinking.]

You should be a beacon of moral standards.

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

I should say so, yes.

*Selphie raises an arch eyebrow, daring Ky to suggest that she's anything but*

Indeed...and so I am.

(video)

[closedcircuit]

[He would never...but he will sniff at her second statement.]

Then you shouldn't be drinking.

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie's frown is quite considerable - she's irked that he suggest she's doing something wrong*

Excuse you, but there's absolutely no reason why not. I hardly lose my manners just because I've had a sip of champagne!

(video)

[closedcircuit]

But you do lose your moral standing.

... this must be what a sane person at a mental hospital feels like.

[Between Ky, Shiemi, his brother and his mom all acting weird, it's all Rin can do to keep himself from putting his hands over his head indefinitely just to make sure a hat doesn't land on him.]

[closedcircuit]

I beg your pardon?

[Don't make him lift an eyebrow at you, young man.]

[keepsthefire]

Dude, Ky, I knew you were prissy but this is ridiculous.

[bring it, princess :| ]

video;

[closedcircuit]

I don't think there's anything prissy about enjoying myself.

[Ky: missing the point. But there's totally eyebrow-lifting going on.]

[keepsthefire]

You're acting like a damn princess.

[Video]

[coolerthansora]

...you should try ice cream, too.

[Video]

[closedcircuit]

Is ice cream very fancy?

[Ky's had it before, of course, but doesn't remember it being that remarkable. Mostly it was messy.]

[Video]

[coolerthansora]

Um... it can be.

You could get someone to make you a sundae.

[Video]

[closedcircuit]

Ah...

There's an icecream shop, isn't there?

[Video]

[coolerthansora]

Yeah. Real close to the plaza.

[Video]

[shippingmath]

To clarify. This wonder of wonders you've missed out on is chocolate.

[Face. Palm.]

[Video]

[closedcircuit]

Of course I've had chocolate before, but it didn't seem as...impressive then.

[Video]

[shippingmath]

What the hell is impressive about it now?

[Video]

[closedcircuit]

It smells good?

[Video]

[shippingmath]

How's that impressive? That's fucking normal.
