SPOILER!!: M'lady Sweet and Fair


Azura had to hold back a smile as he said that his sister's wand had fairy wings in it. He was so serious about it as well, and she had to bit her lower lip in order to not just burst into giggles.. "Oh.. I'm not mad..These things happen sometimes.." She said with a nod, still trying to hold in her laughter.

"Oh thank you.." Azura said with a bit of a "royal" head bow, but at his next words, she couldn't help but burst into giggles! This Cyrprian! She didn't think she had laughed this much in ages! Oh Fwoopers it felt good to let it all out! "Yes! They come in quite handy for charms.." She said with a warm smile as she finally calmed down.. Ohh goodness, he was so amusing and fun to be around!

He lived to serve her? "Hmmm, Brave Knight, what should I have you do?" She asked as he started to speak more.. Firecrabs? Hahah!

"How about you defend my heart and make sure it doesn't get broken? That shall be the service I request of you." She said as she gave him another royal head bow.. but despite the teasing in her voice, there was a hint of truth to her words.. Her heart needed to be protected, for it had been broken. Even though Jace hadn't meant too and she didn't blame him one bit for not liking her back.. It still hurt.

Azura nodded as he spoke about his sister and she smiled, "Well, I shall try and look her up next time I see her.. and I'll manage to avoid her cat." She said with a soft laugh.. It really must have been terrible for Cyprian to have a reaction like that..

She thought at least..

And then his next words had her purple eyes wide as she looked at him.. Court her?? Oh.. He must be playing! Of course! They were still playing the Princess and the Knight in seemed.. Right? It HAD to be? She was about to open her mouth to answer when his next sentence had her heart pounding and feeling slightly fluttery inside..

Did.. he.. just.. ask her out?

Azura looked at Cyprian.. her eyes wide as she pondered what to say..

But what about Jace? She asked herself as she bit her lip a little

What ABOUT him? He was her friend.. and just that. And she needed to just be his friend. Sure she had ideas of them growing up and Jace finally coming to like her.. But.. She couldn't put something like that on him! She couldn't secretly long after him, while trying her hardest to be the girl he liked.. She couldn't do that. It wasn't fair to him.

She needed to be his friend and nothing more. He would probably be so relieved when she told him she didn't like him anymore..

That thought twisted her heart.. but gave her clarity...To say what she was going to say next.

"Said Veela-girl, would love to accompany you on a date of some sort.. sometime." She said with a warm smile back at him.


Phew! At least Azura didn't burst out in tears, worse, hit him with a sharp blow or smack, especially with the open hand or with something flat. (AKA a Slap)
"I'm glad to see that the death of your miniature kinsmen hasn't affected you that harshly." Maybe they were just distant aunts or uncles?

Merlin, her laugh in a silly, often high-pitched way, especially with short, repeated gasps and titters, as from juvenile or ill-concealed amusement (giggles) were adorable and strangely pleasing.

"Anything, fair lady!" he would even write her a soliloquy if she wished it, "I shan't fail you!" Unless it involved eating beets, or taking Arithmancy. He would fail so hard if it was either of those things.

Defend her heart? That seemed like a small enough task. Who would want to hurt her? This beautiful princess. . . he couldn't imagine those purple eyes weeping in sorrow. Nether-the-less, he went to his knee, bowed his head and accepted this task. "I shall defend mine lady's fragile blood-organ from anymore pain. From this day forth, I swear to hunt down and murder damage any prick witless enough to harm my Princess. Even if it were I that was said prick." And he swore it.

He clambered back to his feet, a solemn look on his face. "Who do I need to damage first, my lady? Who was it that broke your heart?" He wasn't going to hurt the guy, a lot. And if it was like a fourth year. . . well. . . maybe?

He grinned at her answer. He hadn't expected her to say yes. Oh Merlin. . . a date with the gorgeous Fairy-Princess that had entrusted her heart into his care. . . Wow. He was going to have to get a nice suit. . . and a nice place. . .

"Great! I mean umm. . . sure, gurllllllll." Was that how guys flirted? Who even knew? "I can't wait. . . for our romantic appointment/engagement." He was very enthusiastic and eager. Like really.
