"You can't escape the cute"
|
Everything smelt, tasted, and looked like grass. No wait, it looked dark. Maybe if she would open her eyes it'd look like grass too... no last time she did that it poked her in the eye and it was dark. She giggled to herself and looked up. Evals was lying down in the grass, it was still the early morning and the sun had warmed it enough so that the weather was decent. She put her hands under her chin and looked across the courtyard. Not many people were yup yet, besides the servants in the castle. She bent her legs at their knees and held them in the air. So, what was she going to do today? She wasn't doing much at all, just sitting here. Nobody to talk to. She rolled over and spread her arms and legs out. Wearing a light shirt and long black pants, the shirt was green and not a dark color for once. She just closed her eyes and relaxed for now. Until she thought of something, she would probably sleep outside. If she could fall asleep. |

A loud ruckus came from the opposite side of the courtyard, causing a flock of birds to take flight to the sky in a hurry. Any movement stopped and the pleasant, calm air slowly blanketed the place again. Mortis, on the other hand, had held his breath in case any sentry decided to patrol the thicks of poison ivy growing on the furthest side of the courtyard. He also held it so he wouldn't develop any rashes down his throat, if he happened to be careless and breath in a leaf or so. If anybody caught him, he would be dead. No peasant should be entering inside the castle courtyards without a special cause... Nobody caught him yet, but... there was always a chance. Waiting for a couple of minuets, the young boy peeked around before tip-toeing towards the young princess that lived here. His young friend laid there, enjoying the breaks of morning on the grass. From the shadows casted down from the wall, he picked up a small stone and tossed it next to the girl. |

Something landed near the young princess, she hesitated a moment and looked at the small rock next to her. She then jumped up like her life was threatened by something that would violently explode. She picked it up and looked at where it came from. She twitched her palm and sent the rock into the air from her palm and caught it again. Mortis couldn't just come out of the shadows? Did he have to sneak around without warning her? "Get over here!" She said cheerfully, intending on hitting him with the rock either way. Being too impatient to wait for him, she hummed the rock at his head hoping it would hit him between the eyes, but knowing her aim wasn't the she just expected to hit him in general. "You know, if you ask I could just let you in." She said and put her hands on her hips and waited for a reply. |

"OW!" came a shout from the shadows. Evals's aim may not have been good, but it was accurate enough to hit him, especially since he was covered in poison ivy and dust from the fields. Mortis stepped out of the shadows, striding over to his friend and stopping several feet before her, incase the spores did rub off. He was massaging his chin where the rock had hit, as it was a sharp rock. "Well, I'm sorry, and I'm not suppose to be here in the first place," he said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. The boy suddenly stretched up and yawned. "How come the princess wakes up so early?" |

The young royalty giggled when she had hit her mark, not correctly but good enough. With a small look over of him, she approved of his appearance like it really mattered. When he stated he wasn't suppose to be here she just rolled her eyes. "That's why I said I'd tell them to let you in. Or are you forbidden by some higher force to not come and visit me?" She pointed a blade of grass at him like it was a real blade, she had picked it out from her hair. She tried to flick the grass into his mouth when he yawned but he didn't even get half of the way there before it started to glide towards the ground. "Because sleeping best done at night." She said making an obvious point. Then she remembered something, looking in her pockets they were folded up. Made out of leather mostly and something hard on the inside, but they were still bendable. She pulled out what looked like a headband as she straightened it out. It had two fake cat ears on it. "You're wearing this today, ok?" Evals stated with an innocent smile, he probably wouldn't enjoy them. |

Mortis rolled his eyes. "I'm not that stupid, Evals. Of course, would you think I wouldn't visit you if there wasn't another force? Master's gonna have me a flagging if he ever saw me up here. It's after harvest and if he saw I got up this early, I would never see you again." He drew his actual dagger and flipped it up in the air, snagging it by the hilt as it reached the top. He groaned at Eval's usually-smartening answers. He wasn't even going to bother trying to retort to that, as his usual comebacks ended in disaster. It turned out that everything she was doing today would end in disaster. When she pulled out the kitty ears, he backed off. "Woah. Woah. Woah. Why am I wearing those today? I've gotta do field work!" |

"Well, you could always use the excuse that the Princess wanted to talk to you." She said in a teasing voice as she approached him. She would easily vouch for him, keep him from getting in any kind of trouble. Get him away from working in the fields, she would do that for him. When he backed away and stated he had to work today, she only frown and thought about making him stay anyways. Without a warning, she quickly latched him in a hug. "Your master, this that, field work. If you want, I can finally get you away from it all." She offered him, wasn't the first time. She only held the cat ears in her hands for now, was he using that as an excuse to not wear it? Maybe, either way Evals was going to keep him here as long as he could.

Mortis sighed and fell silent. This subject was a confusing one, as he wanted to get away from the dreaded life of a peasant. But to be taken upon the Balief family? And through Evals? He couldn't. He wouldn't dare. But his life was getting worse... as he was waking up later and later... His own takes were at the front of his mind and he yawned. "I wish I could..." he muttered, unaware of the girl beside him. Mortis caught himself and shook his head awake. "Live with you? Never. I couldn't ask so much from you. And what would your family think? And I'm still not wearing those cat ears." He eyed the leather band warily. Edited by Mortis, Nov 21 2009, 05:01 PM.

Evals smiled and continued to hold him tight. No field work for him, not today. "Oh, it won't be asking much of me. Just you." She said and fiddled with the leather band behind his back idly. What did he think she meant by that? The easiest way she could think of would just be transfer of ownership. She could probably free someone, but also get them to live in the castle? That'd be a bit more difficult and awkward when she asked for it. "My family would probably view you as another servant, just mine." Evals spoke a bit fond of the idea but wondered if he would want to be that to her. "And, yes. Yes you are." She said and pulled away from him and pulled the cat ears onto his head and held them there a moment before letting go. "Take them off, well I'll think of a punishment." She said with a giggle, it was a threat but she wouldn't honestly do anything to him. Nothing bad. |

A transfer in ownership? When Evals said about continuation of being a servant, he found himself nodding. "I see..." He was wishing that he could have been more to her, but at last, she didn't see it that way. He would accept that. But he groaned and adjusted the cat ears atop his head. "Whatever the princess pleases," he sighed and stuck out his tongue. Mortis wouldn't mind a day off from the grueling work. "What are we off to do today?" |

Evals held a cute smile when he just nodding and answering without an answer. She will take that as a yes, once she can get the chance to get it done. Mortis would belong to her, how did he feel about it? Would he be fine with that? She might as well ask how he felt and make him answer if he truly wanted her to. "You see? Well, just tell me this. Do you want me to or not? I won't really boss you around... much." She said seriously and sincere at he end, even about the much. She supposed she already did boss him around a bit. When he fixed the position of the cat ears on his head, she squeeled slightly. He looked cute in them! Not that he didn't before but still, even more! "Whatever I please? What if I want you to kill yourself because I'm bored? Would you do what I said then? And... tag." She spoke oddly, and then tapped him and stepped away as she tried to listen. Even if she told him that seriously, she would never want him to get hurt. He was also it not. |

"I.... I...." She was making it terribly hard for the boy. Mortis wasn't one to think deeply on the spot. It took him years and years to decide, to ponder and prod every angle of his thoughts. He had thought this question over and over, and he still hadn't come up with an answer. When he heard Evals squeal, though, his seriousness temporarily resided. She probably thought he looked stupid, weird, or cute. She asked him another question, and this one he knew the answer. "Tell me to kill myself, I'll do it. Just to see me in pain for your pleasure, though, no." Seriousness aside, he swiped at the princess as she took a step back. Pausing for a second, he leaned back and looked down. "You see what these ears do to me? I'm now more a cat than a human!" With that, he chased after his friend, two arms in the air and flailing. |

Evals smiled. "You, you?" She teased. He couldn't give her answers right away, it seemed difficult for him. While she moved away from his swipe and continued to move back she thought about what he said. He would kill himself if he told her to? As long as it wasn't for her pleasure. She smiled, never hurt Mortis. Never. She giggled as she ran from him. "Yeah, but you're my cat Human!" Evals spoke jokingly. Wondering how he would react to it and what he was really thinking about what she asked him. Would he want to be her servant just to hang out? He will ask him in a little while what he thought about the fact that she was just going to do it. If he said he didn't want it she might withhold for now, she doubted he thought that. |

Mortis laughed full out when he realized that Evals was much faster than him, despite the hard work in the fields. He went out to fully tackle his friend, giving the sky a wholesome smile that had disappeared from his face a long time ago. As he felt himself fall to the ground, he rolled onto his back and just stared at the sky, seeing the crack of dawn hit the celestial backdrop, wiping away the starry night. Everything seemed just as perfect as things could be. The questions whirled around his head, and he slowly put a hand to the cat ears. It would have been 5 something, and the morning bell at 6 usually meant for the peasants to wake up and start another day in the fields. If he were to be late, a harsh whipping would be in store, or maybe eating whatever bugs they found on the ground. He wanted nothing of that. With a sad face, he turned towards Evals. The expression had been one used too often, a sign of sadness as he wouldn't see her until the evening. He slowly started rising to his feet. |

Evals watched him as tried to tackle. She gave a small jump forward to avoid the tackle so she wouldn't be tagged. She watched him on the ground seeing if he would get up or not. When he looked at her and she saw his face. She looked at the grass, her hand tightened into a fist. Once he rose to his feat she moved close to him and hugged his arm. "Come on Mortis, you know I can get you out of it." She said worried about him having to work all the time. She was a Princess, why hadn't she done something sooner. "Infact, I think I will. Whatever you can come to the conclusion or not. Is that alright?" She continued and held onto his arm tightly. Her voice made it sound like she was just concerned for him, she was. Even if it was just field work. |

Mortis casted a dodging glance to her. He would love to accept... but... Too many days had whipped around him, prancing off with Evals in their random shenanigans. The serf was getting suspicious every time he appeared at the dinner table but not in the fields. He'd already gotten beaten around the legs, with large welting bruises to prove the fact, and he didn't want a back ache either. If only he could get into the castle... then everything would be better... His mind was made up. He was going to spend one last day, and accept her offer. He didn't care if he was her servant or what not. He'd work his butt of anyways for her. With a sigh, he nodded his head and adjusted the ears once more. With that, he put a hand to Evals's shoulder as she hugged him. "You're it, you know. Tag the tagger and you're it." With that, he gave her a big squeeze before trying to run away. He got so far before he realized that he'd tangled his legs into hers and ended up on his back again. Except this time, the wind was knocked out of him and he gazed at the sky with a dazed look. |

Evals waited for some kind of response from Mortis as she leaned her head against his arm. She closed her eyes, he might not respond soon. When his hand touched her shoulder, she bolted her head up and saw the end of a nod. She'll take that as a yes. Maybe talk to him a little bit more about it later. Then she had to smile, even if she didn't want to at the news. She was it, that little sneak. When he tried to run away from her this time, she felt a pull at her leg. Falling backwards she tried to righten herself. Mortis has fallen as well. Clumsy boy. She fell forward now and put her arms out and landed on above him. Hands pressing against the ground as she was staring at his face. "You ok?" |

Mortis stared up at Evals with glazed eyes. Stars ran across his vision and he gave them an awkward smile, as if they were something out of a dream. Then his vision blurred and he saw a sight that only his mind could remember. His smile turned into a confused frown, as he whispered, "Sister... Moon...?" The world swirled around him and he relaxed as he found himself drifting off into a sleep. Suddenly, the world turned black and fell to pieces and he felt himself falling, a memory he did not like to reminisce on. He almost shouted, but his voice died in his throat and his eyes slowly grew dim. Edited by Mortis, Dec 12 2009, 10:35 PM.
