Thread: Take Apart All The Melodies (Daunte and last_true_romantic)

Aewyn let out what could only be described as a gleeful squeel of pure delight when her eyes locked upon the intimidating airship that broached the horizon, smile absolutely glowing from the sight of the aircraft. With the arrival of the Lyrebird her heart swooned for several reasons, many of which she'd never openly admitted to anyone before. Her best friend was finally here! Sebastian's arrival meant that she would finally have the comforting presence of her closest friend once again, the first time in a long time. Of course she'd written every single oppurtunity that had been made available to her, but seeing him in person would be a completely different story. Her fluffy tail had begun wagging with a subtle, unintentional show of happiness and her eyes twitched anxiously at the excitment held within the emotionally charged situation. The princess turned on her heel, racing to the door of her room as quickly as she could while still being careful. Upon swining the beautifuly crafted wooden gateway open she pressed on, turning to look at the guards which stood on either side of the door and offering them both a respectful curtsy. I'll be back, promise! Keep watch her though I'll be fine on my own. I'm going to see my knight after all! Sebastian is home! she told them with a vibrant look upon her graceful form. The guards looked at each other then one of them offered her a shrug before nodding and motioing for her to proceed. The princess's ears gave a twitch of impatience which spurred her decision to hurry to the lower sections of the castle leaving the two guards to protect her things. Dragonsreach was her childhood home and remained so to this very day. The winding corridors of the floating castle were practically engraved in her mind and made her descent quicker than one might imagine a young girl to be capable of. Aewyn let out a sigh of relief when she noticed the large doors of the castle hadn't yet been opened for the returning soldiers. A mischevious smile crossed her sculpted visage, the look contrasting quite heavily with her otherwise innocent demeanor. Lady Revalon made her way over to the door, offering the servants milling about a warm smile, until she came to rest off to the side behind where they swung inward. It had been so long since she'd last seen Sebastian, and even longer since the two had engaged in any childish antics. The older male may have trained to serve in the royal guard, but that didn't mean she'd let him forget that he was still her best friend... Even if perhaps a part of her wanted more. The hybrid's tail began wagging furiously when she heard the knock on the doors of Dragonsreach, one hand going to cover her mouth while she gestured with the other for the nearest servant to open it. As expected when asked something by the royal family the girl, one of ladies who had been inducted into the castle within the last year or so, obeyed and a moment later the familiar creek of the doors was heard. Natural light from the incandesecent sun filtered in and fell upon the servant who offered Sebastian a respectful bow. Welcome home Sebastian. Or should I say, Sir Unwin, the girl spoke with a tone that held a professional reverence for the rank of who she addressed. It's a pleasure to greet your retur- Aewyn smiled when the servant mentioned her knight's name, taking the oppurtunity of the girl addressing him to suprise her childhood crush mid sentence. The beautiful form of Lady Darkwin jumped from behind the door in a burst of speed. Of course Aewyn went straight for the armored form of Sebastian, wrapping her arms around him in a very informal hug despite her position as his charge. Sebastian! I missed you so much! she exclaimed while pressing herself against him. If the day ahead wasn't so filled to the brim with activity than she would have been content to hold him there forever as if fearful that he'd leave her again. It had been a long time since she'd been as happy as she was in that moment which her furred tail made evident to all gathered. He was one of the few people that never looked at her any different for her lineage and certainly one of the few that she could spend time playing with. Although those days were long in the past as they'd both been forced to grow up, the two had always spent time with one another even if simply enjoying the company of the other on a beautiful day. Sebastian was a lot... bigger... than when they first parted for his training. And, although she wouldn't say this out loud, he looked pretty damn hot. Aewyn pulled away from the embrace and did her best to hide her now fluttering heart behind a warm smile and a much more formal stance appropriate for a princess. It's been far too long, although I see the training certainly seems to have worked on you, the Okamimi complimented before holding her hand out for her knight to accept, curious eyes searching his face carefully for his reaction to her presence.
