Thinking about an AU where two young girls don’t quite yet grasp the weight of promises.
Princess Gojo wraps a blue hair ribbon around the other’s wrist and says: “You’ll always be my knight.”
Suguru doesn’t hesitate: “Forever.”
Years later the princess is to be married to another. The knight is faced with a decision that will redefine honor for her.
Neither of them realized they created the very oath that will one day keep them apart.
Neither realized that the cruelest promise isn’t the one you break.
Sometimes, it’s the one you keep.
(Anyway, I actually wrote this one a while back. It’s on AO3 and is called A Ribbon Bound In Oath. Beware it’s all hurt and no comfort. Tread carefully 😵💫 Been thinking about a potential sequel recently though so it’s been on the mind recently.)
