[Ursula's in her room, seated at the edge of her bed. Her curious gaze is drawn downward to the object cradled in her hands. It is dark, no hint of any power within and yet the princess can't help but wonder. She isn't one to keep useless trinkets on hand.]

I don't remember this being in my travel pack, though it was there when I began clearing it out earlier today. I don't suppose anyone can tell me what it is?

[She turns it in her hands, trying to fathom a guess, but no amount of staring provokes a memory or sense of familiarity with the object.]

When you have a moment, I need to speak to you about something.

[Ursula shakes her head.]

Not very much, no. I was just wondering about this item I found. Why?

Um, well... just a minute. I'll show you.

[Give the boy about 15 minutes and he'll show up with a box in his hands.]

[Ursula glances up from the Sky Phone and Dawn Shard, putting both away for now. The box has her attention and she glances to it.]

What's that?

action

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

Well uh... there was that holiday they had. And you're supposed to give gifts but then Father arrived and um... here.

[Pushing the box towards Ursula now.]

[Ursula takes the box, but looks dismayed.]

I didn't get you anything, though.

[Aside from that kiss.]

action

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

But you did.

[The kiss counts! Unless she's saying there needs to be more of them to count for a gift. He's entirely ok with more. Ceodore's nervous as heck about the gift though, because he doesn't even know if she'll like it.]

[Ursula would protest, but she doesn't want to be rude and besides...she's curious, so she begins to open the gift box.]

[Fidgeting would be undignified, so Ceodore resorts to standing at parade rest while he waits for Ursula to open up what he bought for her from the auctions: a Prism Claw. No one bothered to tell him that weapons are not on the standard list of gifts to give ladies.]

[monk-princess.livejournal.com]

[Ursula's eyes widen as she lifts the Prism Claw out of the box.]

Oh, Ceodore....

action

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

Will it fit?

[Because that's better than asking the wuss 'Do you like it?']

action

[monk-princess.livejournal.com]

Let's see.

[She slips it on and flexes her fingers, then grins.]

Perfect! Thank you, Ceodore. This is a wonderful gift.

action

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

[He perks up immediately and flashes Ursula a relieved grin.]

[Ursula slips off the claw, but only so she can set it down and give Ceodore a hug without impaling him.]

action

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

[He's used to sharp pointy things. Everyone in his family runs around with shoulder spikes all the time. Well, except for Golbez. He's just got that cape and kilt thing. However! Hugs are excellent and Ceodore intends to savor this one.]

I'm glad you like it.

So, what's going on in Mysidia?

[monk-princess.livejournal.com]

Porom wants lessons, so I promised to help her. Besides, I'd like to see how she's doing anyway. She did her part to help us when we needed it. A visit is the least we can do to repay her.

action

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[He grins though. Porom needs lessons?]

I thought Porom knew everything.

[monk-princess.livejournal.com]

Ceodore....

[She shakes her head, then smiles.]

The ball reminded her of something she wanted to learn, so I'll help as much as I can. I gave my word.
