Urf. Can't find my copy of Storm of Swords, but had a great idea for fic while searching.
Little Integra makes Alucard serve her tea and havea formal tea party with her. She does this again once she's an adult as well. Alucard is a bit more into it the second time. The first time he mainly thinks about how she is the most badass 11 year old he's ever met.
"Sir Penwood said that I should take tea with other girls," pouts Integra. Her face crinkles as she says this.
Alucard tilts his head to the side from across the small table, his lean figure towering over her. His master is about half the size he is, and her feet do not quite reach the floor. This had been the chair of her father, and her father's father. It was not built for a small girl, no matter how fast she grows.
"What do you think, little master?" he replies. Integra does not know it, but this answer will mean everything, both to Alucard and her future.
"I am a knight, and I will have tea with whoever I please."
Her voice is full of determination, even at this age. His master will not be denied. This pleases him immensely.
"Even a monster," adds Integra sheepishly. She shuffles her feet under the table.
Yes, his master is perfect. Alucard can't help but chuckle softly at this. Integra glowers at him suddenly.
"I wasn't laughing at you," he explains. Alucard offers young Integra his open palm.
"Good," she snaps. Then she is quiet.
The two of them do not speak untill Integra finishes her tea.
"Clean up, Alucard."
"Yes, sir."
Alucard smiles as Integra jumps down from her father's chair. As she straightens her skirt, he reloads the silver tray. He sorts the china carefully. He still remembers when the queen presented it, many years ago.
"Little master?"
"Yes?"
"You will make an excellent knight."
