This is not the Christmas gift that I promised you but this will serves as a tie in for that. And yes this is Lancaster.
Tukson: Hey Blake where am I supposed to put this poster up?
Blake: Shh... Don't use my real name. I can't have anyone finds out that I'm actually the author of this novel.
Narrator: Unbeknownst to everyone including her friends and teammates. Blake is hiding the fact that she's currently the author of a rather famous book series that's taking the City of Vale and beyond by storm called the "Knight's of Rose: Chronicle. " It tells a story of a young knight-errant and a princess from a small kingdom. Their adventure together and especially their romance are written in such a detail, it is as if the author herself were present when she wrote it. But because of personal reason Blake did not use her name when she published the books and instead she publish it under a pseudonym named...
Tukson: Oh, my apology. Madame Noir... Now tell me where the fuck should I place this poster?
Blake: Just, just put it somewhere people can see it.
Tukson: Also why do you need to have a book signing here? There's literally better places for you to hold your book event.
Blake: It is, if I don't want to meet someone I know of. I have to keep this a secret after all.
Tukson: Okay, if you say so.
Blake: Besides there will be tons of people that will be coming to your book store celebrate the release of my new book; Knight's of Rose 3. On a bed of Roses.
Tukson: Sounds painful...
Blake: Hush you philistine. This the book where they finally realizes their love for one another and have a chaste kiss.
Tukson: Uh, huh. Do they at least bang with each other in the end?
How dare you! The love shared between them are nothing indecent like that. The love between them are wholesome and perfect. The Knight Janus and Princess Rose does not need to "bang" to confirm their love for one another. Instead they only need to look each other in the eyes and see each other soul reflected through them. Their love for each other so pure that anyone watching... I mean reading them will feel mentally and spiritually fulfilled.
Tukson: All right. I didn't mean anything by it.... Oh right, I almost forgot. The two people you hired to cosplay as the characters you just said will be late.
Blake: What?! But I needed them for my book signing. How am I going to find another two people to help me with it.
Jaune: Excuse me is this where the book signing is going to be?
Ruby: Yeah, we came all this way to get our book signed by the author themselves.
Narrator: Seeing her friends walks into the store. Blake silently scream and she felt her own heart try to escape from her mouth. And true to her Faunus side, she quickly hides herself behind the table when confronted with something she's afraid of. All the while praying to whatever gods she believes in that Jaune and Ruby didn't saw her.
Tukson: Sorry we're not open yet.
Blake: *why the F did you not close the door?*
Tukson: *Because almost nobody goes here. Here wear this mask. It's an unsold comic book merch*
Narrator: Putting on the mask Blake then emerge from behind the table to greet both Ruby and Jaune while putting on a rather thick accent.
Blake: It is nice to meet you my dear my name is Madame Noir. How may moi be of service?
Jaune: Madame Noir my sister and me are your biggest fan. Can you please sign this books for us?
Ruby: Can I also please have my book signed too? I only started reading it when Jaune recommend this series for me. But I really like this story very much and I really like the character princess Rose very much.
Jaune: Really, Ruby? Well my favorite character is Janus. So, I guess our favorite characters matches with each other.
Ruby: No way! My favorite scene between them is when Janus and Rose fought together against a giant dragon.
Jaune: Well I just like it when Janus and Rose just interacting with one another. If I can pick one favorite scene. Is when they first met. I can't believe someone can be so dense for not realizing her feelings towards him.
Ruby: I know right! Both princess Rose and Janus are my OTP. I mean how stupid could she be for not realizing it sooner. She clearly only seen to be comfortable with him. My favorite part is when Rose gives Janus the encouragement he needed to keep going.
Thank you for the meal....
Narrator: While Blake is enjoying the sight in front of her eyes. A wicked thought starts to enter her mind.
Blake: Oh my adoring fans I would love to give you my autograph, but you have to do something for me first.
Blake: I want you to cosplay as Rose and Janus for my book signing.
Tukson: Wait a second... Bla. I mean Madame Noir can we talk for a minute, alone.
Blake: I'll be be back my children and the costumes are in the back. Don't forget to put it on...
Tukson: Blake... Did you use real life people as inspiration to write your book?
Tukson: Blake. This is not right.
Blake: I'll tell you what isn't right! Seeing them day in day out. Interacting with each other without seeing any pay off. That isn't right. They have feelings for each other I knew it in my heart. But they refuse to admit it. So in desperation I wrote a fanfic of them finally being together and it ended up becoming a best selling series.
Tukson: Wait. So they're not actually together?
Blake: Enough! I will not have my ship be questioned. They are together and I refuse to believe anything that says otherwise. *Walks out of the door*
Jaune: Excuse me Madame Noir we finished wearing the costumes. So where do you want us to help you out?
Ruby: I must say this dress is not so bad. This is Princess Rose's combat dress from book one right? And Jaune. You look so cool. You're actually wearing a full body armor now and not just wearing it in some parts of you.
Jaune: Thanks Ruby... And you actually look very pretty in that dress.
Ruby: I am? Well thank you Jaune ☺
Tukson: Oh brothers. Wake up Bla- I mean wake up Madame Noir. Wake up!
Narrator: After slowly waking up from a shipping related coma. Blake or Madame Noir can be seen later signing books for her adoring fans. While Ruby and Jaune poses with their costumes.
Fan: I can't believe I just met the Author of my favorite series.
Blake: Thank you for supporting me.
Fan: OMG can I ask the Princess Rose and Knight Janus cosplayers to enact a scene from the novel.
Blake: Hmmm. I don't know. Rose, Janus what do you think. You all okay with it?
(Rose:) Oh we won't mind. Do we Janus?
(Janus:) Of course my princess. I will obey your order no matter what.
(Rose:) Now tell us what scene would you like us to reenact?
Fan: How about when Princess Rose and Janus "eloped" together to get away from Rose's fiance Garmin Westchester.
(Rose:) Ah. I like that scene too...
"My brave Knight. Why are you entering my room this late at Night?"
"I beg your forgiveness my lady. But I cannot let you marry that cad Garmin. If my lady wants it I can get my lady out of here right away. "
"Oh, do tell me sir, Knight. Why would I want to run away from here? My duty is to my kingdom and if my duty is to marry Lord Westchester's son then I will do as duty commands it."
"Then why do you said it with your back turned against me?"
"Because, because I have no need to do so. You should watch your tongue, Knight. You are speaking out of line."
"Then, do you not mind his hands when he touches you? Caresses you? His breath as he said he loves you? And would you not mind it when his body and yours joined together?
If you say you want to marry Garmin, then I will leave you alone my princess. And I will not mentioned it ever again."
"N-no, of course not. But I have my duty...."
"Then turns and look at me in the eyes when you said that my princess."
😭"I-I-I'd rather die than to marry that pig.
You were right Janus. I don't want to marry him but I can't just leave. I have my responsibility."
"Then I will kidnap you, take you far away from here."
"Then it will no longer be you helping me to escape. It will just be you taking me from my will. "
"I would rather you hate me, but be happy and free in returns."
"Even if we managed to escape my father will find and kill you."
"A small price to pay. For my lady's happiness. But I will say this. I am not afraid to break my vow to your father. Because I swore my loyalty to lady Rose not the King."
"Why would you go so far for me?"
"Because we're friend... And mostly because I don't want to see you marrying someone you don't like"
"What you are suggesting can be seen as elopement. And does that means I should marry someone like you?"
"No my lady. Marry anyone that makes you happy. I am but a Knight with a meager land to my name. I can't possibly make you happy. "
"But what if I say, I really do wanted to marry you. What will you do?"
"Then... I would make you the most happiest woman in the world. I will never falter in my marriage to you and I will only have my eyes on you."
Narrator: Everyone that watches the scene suddenly founds themselves on the floor unable to process what just happened.
Fans: They are so perfect for each others.
Tukson: Ah, now I can see why people ships them.
