Hey! You! Quick! Describe the kind of person you desire most...using one word. Yep. One. Uno. Only. If you can't choose the word to describe your taste, conscious or unconscious, you'll be forced to blurt out a choice turn.

Ready. Go.

There's something settling about just curling up and watching the tide change.

That actually sounds really lovely.

It can be. When one spends all day surrounded by pain, it does a heart and soul good to remember that it's okay to breathe. It's okay to keep something for yourself, aye?

A lesson I must learn, I think. I live to serve.

Never a good thing. Living to work, living to serve. One must learn to live to live. So much in the world to enjoy and the limits on oneself confines us so tightly.

Unfortunately, that it outside my control.

Is that a fact?

I must serve the crown.

Must you? Or could you not?

It is my duty. I was given to the Queen to serve her when I was just a girl.
medicalling: (Oh? 2)

anything goes.

Have you nowhere else to go? Are you tethered to this Queen?

[But he didn't ask lightly. He knew well that certain royals had a tether they could pull tightly around their subjects. And her position was exactly the one he was trying to avoid.]

I serve my people best through my service of the Queen.

[ The access, the information she gathers. She suffers nightly and waits for her opportunity to have her vengeance. ]

And is that all your life is about? Serving others?

[personal profile] whitekefta 2025-06-05 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I've dedicated my life to serving the betterment of my people, the Grisha.

Your whole life. All you are is a thing to serve, not a person in her own right?
