having just finished his usual morning run, adrian was about to return to his chambers, his mind full of thoughts on the summit. even though it’s been a long while since his last serious relationship and heartbreak he still didn’t feel ready to be in one, regardless of it being a merely political one. his usual fast, long pace along with his distracted state did contribute to the collide just when he passed the door and even though he would have made a fuss out of it normally, this time he knew half of the blame was on him. ‘ nah it’s fine, guess i wasn’t looking either. you good ? ’ mused the american prince, lifting his shoulders before giving a nod of his head. ‘ that’s right, though – with the amount of people around here, it’s bound to be one hell of a crowded place. ’
“yes, yes i am fine,” the blonde laughed lightly, “well, in regard to our little collision at least.” she knew everyone here had their own soap opera-esque backstories to deal with and certainly didn’t want to deal with hers. “this palace used to be like a second home to me but now it feels like a maze again so i must apologize in advance if i ever run into you accidentally again.” eleanor tucked a strand of blonde hair behind her ear, a nervous habit of hers, and offered a hand to shake. “i am eleanor of austria, it is a pleasure to meet you.”
