Darling, my love

[sesamie-moving]

a knight, to the prince she has sworn her life to protecting, upon finding out that same prince has abused his power and committed multiple atrocities, and is now tasked with killing the very person she was meant to keep safe: i’m disappointed in you. looks like you… sniff.. you let your guard down this time….

oh if only i could be a simple knight pining after my prince unaware that he is also enamored with me

[buttercup-achillean]

Okok but imagine lying on his chest after a long day and he is wrapping his arms around you tightly,,, and it is warm and cozy,,,and you can feel his breath on your neck,, and he gives you a kiss on your forehead as you doze into sleep,,,,,,,,

My dear prince,

I heard someone speak a phrase today. "I romanticize everything to survive". Something about it has snagged my mind, I've thought about it on loop now.

I am not one to naturally romanticize life. No, more often I find myself devoid of any feeling at all. A grey numbness. I think that may be why I resonate with the quote so much. Perhaps romanticizing life is what will save me.

I care for only a few things. You, the ducks thar float in the castle pond, and staying your loyal knight. I fear thay if I take too much love into my life then it will become meaningless. Perhaps I should change that. Perhaps it is worth it to find joy in the gardens and stone roads, to see the children running through the streets as the baker yells after then. I believe life is made to be loved.

I believe each of us were made to by loved. I will do as much as I can yo make sure you understand that.

With love,

Your knight

Local nonbinary knight confuses many royal advisors, when pressed to say hyr gender hy just pauses and responds "I'm just a knight" before walking away to train.

[the-bundled-bone-bag]

You, dear knight

Yes you.

I see you’re looking very closely at my collection of rings. Do you have a certain someone in mind?

The shopkeep chuckles.

I apologize. No need to prod, eh? But if you’d like I could offer you one made of pirate gold and set either rubys. One of a kind.

So how’s it sound?

I have never considered myself a poet, never good at writing honeyed words or making endless metaphors. My affections have always been blunt and direct, I say how I feel and mean every word.

But now I find that I wish to be softer with you. Wish my calling was as a bard, if only so I could give your beauty the appreciation it deserves. If only so I could say how your smiles and laughter makes me feel. You soften me, make me yearn for a more domestic time, a time where I could learn to be more diverse in my words, where I could learn to praise and adore you the way you deserve.

The best way I can put it now my love is a feeling of home. A feeling of warmth and safety, of laughter and love. That's how I feel thinking of you, almost as if you were the personification of a lazy summer day. I've found I enjoy it more than I thought I would. Found I enjoyed you more than I thought. Maybe, one day I will be able to stand by your side as something different than your knight. Though for now I can only enjoy these moments.

Imagine if you were a Prince, and I was a Knight, and I was respectfully bowing in front of you to press my lips against your knuckles, eyes looking up at your lovely face. Our hearts flutter and beat against our ribcages as the room grows thick and tense, the desperation to kiss almost tangible. I long to lean up to you just a little closer than I should, murmur court gossip to you to hear your soft laughter; to breathe warm air against your neck - just to see the way your cheeks turn such a delicate shade of pink.

Haha, I jest. ....Lest?

[my-dear-prince]

My dear prince,

I have not written to you, though I don't much see a reason I should. You have not returned. I hear there was a storm passing through the highlands, I hope that is the only cause for your delay. Alas, my mind wanders to such dark places. But I must keep hope! You taught me that.

It will soon be warm again, and the rain will come in shifts. I have always dreamt of sitting atop a dew-soaked hill. It's only figurative, of course. I do hate getting my clothes wet.

Perhaps I wouldn't mind so much if I was with you. One day I shall take you to rosewood hill.

Lovingly,

your darling knight

Despair might be reasonable, but that doesn't make it right. Fight on, because it's the noble and the decent and the best thing to do. Fight on, because there is nothing else worth doing, besides being good to each other. Fight on, because miraculous things happen, sometimes, when you look the world in its dead and broken eyes and say, "I will not stop trying to be kind."

Even beyond hope, there is determination and strength to be found. Cynisism will not save you, it will not protect you, it will not keep you from getting hurt. But if you stand up and say, "I will be kind and just and fair, I will care for my friends and fight for what I need," you will, if nothing else, add a spark of something good to the world around you and to your own life.

And sometimes--not always, but sometimes-- that spark will flame up into something you never could have predicted or imagined. Sometimes the people around you only need a little push to start fighting, imagining, building, changing, and growing alongside you. The best antidote to hopelessness is to start trying to fix things, and the second-best is to watch someone else try.

And sometimes, your actions won't meaningfully change anything, won't do anything but give you a little bright spot in your own life, before being snuffed out again. But that's alright. Beautiful things are not less beautiful for being small.

My dear prince,

I have dreamt many times lately. I don't know the reason, it could simply be the changing times. You have appeared in them, many times, though I would hate to say I only dream of you.

No, more commonly I think of you. When I am not on guard or simply have a spot of free time my mind wanders off to you. It is purposeful, of course. Dreaming is something you cannot control. But thinking is where you really mean it. I think of you, my prince, very fondly. And very often.

Oh my heart is wretched for you, darling. Only a few more days time and I will see you again.

Sincerely,

your darling knight

My sweetest knight,

You know I recently had to travel for a diplomatic meeting on the edge of the kingdom. I remember coming to you the night before I left, frightened because you were not accompanying me due to your own assignment, and I was to be trusted to knights I did not know, I was worried about how they might treat me, if they would protect me how you did, and if everything would even be okay when I left.

You knew just what to say to set my mind at ease, reassure me that you knew which knights were assigned to me and that you trusted them wholeheartedly, that it would only be a few days, I would be perfectly safe with them, and you would be sure to feed the ducks in the garden and take care of anything I needed personally and wait patiently for my return.

I am so incredibly lucky to have you as my knight. Even when you cannot be with me, I can always trust you to set me at ease and help me with what I need to hear right then.

With all my love,

Your royal highness

[my-dear-prince]

My dear prince,

I have nothing to write but my hand felt empty without so much as your name. I do hope you are safe. I would like to kiss you again.

[cozycreaturescorner]

your majesty (flirtatious)

[my-dear-prince]

My dear prince,

I dreamt of kissing you last night. And you kissed me. But I did it wrong, so I tried again, again, again. My dear prince can I kiss you until you have felt the joy I feel?

[my-dear-prince]

My dear prince,

A week, that's how much longer you will be gone. I know in my mind it is not much different, that we cannot show our love even if you were here, but it is too quiet without you around. One of your garden ducks appears to be seperating itself from the rest. I don't know if it's sadder that it's doing that, or that the others let it.

I am tired, though, and do not have the energy to learn what this means. I do hope you are safe. While I wait, I shall dream of feeding the ducks with you.

But alas, I am only a knight, and you are only a prince. but maybe one day, my love. maybe one day
