The princess herself had come forward to speak against her father. After last night, he understood why. A war declaration is one hell of a way to have your drink spoiled. This was refreshing, however. He wished the princess every success in her coup. Maybe he'd even help, but getting caught up in a civil war sounded stressful. Not that sitting under the king was going to be great, either. The way things were going, they might get tracked down and enlisted. Be made to give people nightmares or something else unsavory. As he ruminated, he caught someone waving, and calling to him. Oh dear, so much for the shadows. It was the woman on the roof, and she'd made friends. A few more friends than just that, perhaps. It sounded like she'd also found out she was siding with the princess. But that wasn't really Aiko's concern. At first surprised to be called to by a stranger, this woman seemed friendly, despite the ruckus. Some people had a way of being two-faced like that, though, but being overly cautious never got anyone anywhere. So they approached. He looked up at the woman on the roof, fluffy tail flicking behind him. "[color=orchid]My, to have charmed such a lady already. I really must practice better discipline.[/color]" Whether he had calmed things down himself or it had just occurred naturally was hard to say. In the midday sun like this, he doubted he'd done much. "[color=orchid]You seek a retreat and regroup?[/color]" The fox demon flicked his tail, smiling, "[color=orchid]I know a place, just that way, the way I came. Cozy little tavern, good food and drink. Comfy beds,[/color]" a slight smirk, here, a soft chuckle, "[color=orchid]but let's not get ahead of ourselves. We've hardly even dined together.[/color]" Another, heartier chuckle, though still subdued. Warm and at ease. "[color=orchid]Has the show ended? This is the after-party? It seems your show went rather well, better than you could have hoped. Shall we go and celebrate?[/color]"
