I can't believe a category three was so destructive...

[ She thinks back to when the senior members said that the barbie storm was category 4. But then again, she got impaled by briars on a category two, so.

...

She follows his gaze. ]

Charles...?

[riverbeans]

[...

closes his eyes and pinches the bridge of his nose.]

Never mind. I think I know what the effect is.

[applebough]

... Are you seeing visions? Hallucinations...?

[ ghosts??? ]

[riverbeans]

... I'm hearing things from my reflection. Don't worry about it.

[applebough]

[ The ever unflappable Charles. Yuri always regarded him as a strong centerpiece of the group—the one who keeps things together while enduring many burdens seemingly without a hitch. She wonders if a part of this has to do with how Charles is a king. A strong, stable foundation. Don't people crack eventually? She's worried about the possibility. ]

... Charles. Um...

[ She will just hold his hand for a bit. ]

You probably don't think you need it, but... I'll help you when you need it, whether that be reassurance or anything.

[riverbeans]

[he glances down at their joined hands, before back up at yuri. he smiles.]

Thanks, Yuri. I appreciate it.

[applebough]

[ The smile turns a little sheepish. ]

You're always so stable. I'm a bit jealous, honestly...

[riverbeans]

[with a little tilt of his head,]

Hey, we've all got our strong and weak points.

[applebough]

Is that so... then what would be your weak point?

[ Not listening to people and then doing whatever he wants?? In less serious situations, at least. ]

[riverbeans]

[





some people would say that's one of them yeah]

Hm... well, my retainers nag at me for being impulsive...

[applebough]

[ She's grateful that Charles closed his mouth when she told him to, tbh. Pleasantly surprised. ]

Impulsive as in... what way? I feel like an impulsive king wouldn't be good, but you're still plenty reasonable at all times.

[riverbeans]

[thinks]

Well, I do things they think I don't put thought into. Like sneaking out of the castle, or fighting on the front lines...

[applebough]

... I think the last one is fair.

[ She's heard of stories when leaders are just right there in front lines, but she also understands why that's extremely risky. ]

Then did you put thought into them?

[riverbeans]

From my perspective? Yes. There are some things you have to see with your own eyes or do yourself, after all.

[applebough]

[ That's true, but...]

They're most likely more worried due to your position.

[ Honestly, Charles does not give off any royalty vibes at all.......... ]

[riverbeans]

[sometimes... you think formalities are optional...]

I know, but really, they can afford to be less worried.
