[As Childe and Luke enter and take their seats, Aether looks towards his knight immediately, but makes sure his gaze doesn't linger. Childe definitely looks good and the air of confidence boosts his charm-- No, no. He can't think about it now. He needs to focus on the dinner, on Elise... even if Childe is right next to him.
The princess giggles softly, before giving a reassuring smile to Luke. The quiet moment is interrupted when Childe speaks again, his smile charming, but Aether knows what is hiding behind it. Especially when the other leans ever so close, winking and talking of the night ahead.
The prince tries to keep his breathing calm and steady, even if his entire being seems to tremble. Truly, the knight is a demon with a death wish, continuing to play a dangerous game and tempting the prince at every turn. The princess also realizes the implications and her face brightens, but instead of shyness she leans to Aether, close but barely touching.]
Sir Childe, I have to admit I am starting to feel at home here. [There are no lies in these words. Elise truly looks happy and she steals a glance at Luke as she smiles fondly.
But she has to continue playing the bride in love.]
Thank you for your kindness. I am happy that prince Aether has someone like you by his side. [Aether blushes bright but the princess continues, a sparkle of mischief in her eyes, her words softer, like a little childish secret just between the three of them.] Make sure to take good care of him.
[Oh gods, Aether thinks to himself, he had one living chaos in his life and now there's two of them!]
