Castling Queenside: Alice/Mirana, this little game we play

Part 2

Mirana quickly settled back into their normal routine. Their games of unconventional chess continued, and though Alice had made significant gains in skill it was still their conversation she most valued.

But something told her tonight was different.

Nice! A really nice take on the Prompt! This is my favourite line - But though Alice wasn't touching her, she was certainly well inside the platonic bubble maintained for propriety's sake.

Very well said; that defining moment of still being able to back off (the platonic bubble) and then once Alice touches her cheek, the "rules" of the "game" have changed!

I also like Alice's boldness at initiating action, yet still being hesitant because she had never contemplated such love before, I imagine.

And lunch to her room as well? Naughty! ;)

Aw, this is lovely! I love the way you write Mirana. Alice too, for that matter, the cheeky little minx.

I'd quote a favorite line, but I'd just end up copy-pasting the whole fic.

Thanks so much for writing and sharing. <3
