can you pretty please with a cherry on top talk more about the polysho drawing you did where Rui "kidnaps" Emu please it's been living in my brain and I really want to know more about it
ohh you shouldn't have <3
basically, it's your generic fantasy au with princesses and magic and knights, loosely based off the Valentine's + White Day sets from 2022 and 2023. Emu is a princess sick of stuffy castle life. while she loves to spend time with Tsukasa and the rest of her knights, they never let her do anything fun (read: dangerous).
one day when she sneaks out, however, she meets a sorcerer named Rui. he's rather startled to see the princess all the way in the outskirts of town, but when she reacts with absolute delight to the same magical powers that inspired fear in the rest of the townsfolk, he quickly finds himself growing fond of her. the two begin regularly meeting in secret, where Emu would tell Rui about her day and Rui would excite her with new spells.
the stress of castle life seems to be getting to Emu, though. seeing this, Rui proposes a break from it all - in the form of a staged "kidnapping". Emu ecstatically agrees.
of course, no one in the castle is informed of this, leading to Tsukasa pursuing the sorcerer when he steals the princess away. with no idea where to start looking for them, however, he goes to the townsfolk, knocking on doors and asking for knowledge about the sorcerer's whereabouts.
there, he meets a rather shy songstress named Nene, who, strangely enough, has an idea about where to find him. she doesn't offer forth how she knows, obviously, since this annoying knight doesn't need to know that she and Rui grew up as next door neighbors, and that he only moved when his latent magic powers became too sporadic and dangerous to live near others.
the knight also doesn't need to know that she really just wants to see her friend again, honestly.
