back on my jester x king bullshit because i absolutely adore the idea of a young man who had to ascend the throne far too quickly, always carrying a somber air around him, finally smiling and sighing fondly at his jester doing tricks for the court
the king can’t help but ask for an encore, so grateful for fleeting distractions in the monotony of everyday life. it helps that the jester is ever so easy on the eyes
okay, everyone go home, this is for me and anon here
your mind is fucking perfect, i love this sappy corny shit. it's an odd pairing because jesters are all about performance, about dressing something up to look different than it is, but they crave genuineness. like a sneeze, a laugh is something that your body can't help but release. it's unwilling, unwanted for the most part, but it's pure reaction.
so to get that from the somber king makes them richer than every sniveling noble in that court. they do only their best tricks and maybe even humiliate some of the court members who have been a pain in his side recently. jester always happy to be by his side and muse on philosophy and art while making jokes. RAHHHHHH <33333 i'm just cornball, guys you got me, pack it up. it's so over </3
