044 - Rinoa, Mikoto - Action in Alexandria

[livelyangel]

[So Rinoa is here like she promised, to visit Zidane and Garnet. She's still not popular in Alexandria and this is obvious from the suspicious way the guards treat her, but they're under orders and they escort her into the castle to meet the king and queen. It's all a bit more formal than she'd hoped. Where are they

Mikoto

[The news of another Genome arriving in the castle is very quick to travel, since there simply aren't that many in the world - and very few would want to venture out of their village. So it isn't long at all before a guard informs Zidane of Mikoto's appearance, and even less time before he dashes up to the front of the castle to greet her.]

Hey! You came! Great to see you!

[nomerevessel]

[She nods, a little awkwardly.]

You too, Zidane. So you are king of this place...

[princessstealer]

[And he has to laugh at that.]

Maybe in name, but I still don't know what the hell I'm doing here. Dagger's the Queen, she's the one in charge here.

[Clearly his wife is the most awesome woman ever.]

[nomerevessel]

[A smile.]

I can imagine that. So... Zidane. May I see the child?

[princessstealer]

Sure! Come on, she's right upstairs - you're gonna love her, she's so beautiful, and she looks like all of us and she's even got your nose-

[And who cares if Mikoto has a lot of enthusiasm in her body or not, her brother certainly does, and without asking permission he's grabbing her hand to hustle her quickly upstairs.]

[nomerevessel]

[So Mikoto is kind of yanked along, but hey, she'll go with it - she does want to see the infant, even if she's less openly enthusiastic about it.]

My nose...

[She says it almost in wonder. Mikoto is used to having virtually identical brothers and sisters. But not one so small.]
