Thread: The Lady is a Man (CLOSED)

RE The Lady is a Man AlexsSketches, shyone Will Andol... visit later? The pause that came from the very childlike feminine voice brought a soft smile to the young man's face that normally... was not brought out by any person. Andol stood there knowing there would be a guest who was to be coming today, but he had decided that he wanted to go out and at least check on Shera before the meeting. He reached out and ran his hand over the dragon snout before saying, Of course I will darling, though I might have a guest with me then, if you don't mind visitors. The creature shook its head, Me no mind... Me no mind at all. The prince laughed softly, Then it is settled. I will be back later, now please be a good girl while I am gone ok. Again the creature nodded, and with that Andol turned and left the building that his own personal mount Shera was housed in. Though as he passed over the threshold and out the side entrance, his demeanor changed completely as his emotion seemed to drain off his face and he put his hood up. Andol always wore it up when not alone in the company of his pets... it was the stares that bothered him. Frankly that was why he found todays meeting to be a little strange as the fact his father told him he would be getting a new... what was the word that had been used, oh yeah... 'pet'. Now he found a few things to be very strange about that, number one it was the way his father had said pet, and two it was the fact his father was getting him a pet. His dad never bought him any pets. Every pet that he had, was a piece of loot that he had either gained through conquest or captured himself, and there was also those he had raised, but that was another matter completely. So with his hands in his pockets he slowly walked to throne room. Past rows of guards who were very quick to salute the young prince that most of them trusted with their very lives, and whom they would die to protect. It was very simple... he was a good leader, and they never lost when he led them, plus few of them died when he was at their head. Andol personally just enjoyed warfare, to him it was all just a game, but one that he took very seriously because he cared about the lives of his men and that went double for the Imperial Flying Corps. It didn't take him long to arrive, and it was after what to him was a few boring minutes of just standing there that his new so called 'pet' arrived. Andol indeed was quite in shock the instant that he laid eyes on the women. A sigh could be heard coming from his, and frankly it had only been the install shock of finding out that he was being brought a wife and not an actual pet that kept him from commenting instant. He allow the princess her greeting before he looked in her direction and with his face hidden by the cloak that he wore he simply said, You are not... a 'pet'. His wording was indeed quite cold, as he just stood there for a few moments. His words had been mostly directed at his father, but he decided to let the princess do what she wanted with them. The prince making sure to keep his face hidden as he approached said to the princess as he walked towards her, Tell me princess, did they at least give you the courtesy of showing you a portrait of the 'thing' you where sent to marry! The word 'thing' was yelled... It was as the last word left Andol's lips that he finally let his hood fall back, and he stared right into the princess eyes. Their faces where indeed quite close, and the prince's two eyes which unlike a normal humans eyes were instead two vertical slits that blinked in a vertical direction also and Andol had the strange habit of blinking... a lot, almost in a reptilian manner. The pupils that were in these strange sockets were as almost black as the night. Along with that were two white horns that stuck out of the young man thick black hair. He was indeed quite pale, but beyond those very odd things, he was just a normal guy.
